Another Article On Drug History

This one has some more background on the history of steroid use etc.

If the Francis article is true concerning the genabol thing in Sydney it leads me to a new question. What has changed? Why in 2003 are we finally having retests when it certainly appeared we could have possibly been doing this in 2000 (genabol), or 2002 (norbolethone). Is it the USADA, WADA or new leadership in the IAAF? Personally I think they should retest anything they have around for genabol, norbolethone and THG.

Well that's the biggest question that no one wants to answer. Is it because there are too many stars involved.....

Come on, we all know that the USADA, WADA, USATF, USOC, IAAF, and IOC would never cover up anything. Yeah right! I mean what do they have to lose by telling the truth? Heck, we are only talking about a few billion dollars for sponsorships and TV rights. Hmmm...this just keeps getting better and better!

I said this 6 months ago and I will say it again. USADA says that don't have any samples to test for norbolethone. My guess is that the IAAF does. If they really are interested in cleaning up the sport they would be testing the samples from the 2001 world championships for norbolethone.
