So who is going to win in Beijing?
Will the Lightning Bolt beat the Gatling Gun ?
Is it down to natural talent or artificial enhancement ?
Should some athletes even be allowed to compete ? |

A victory for all athletes who champion running/throwing/jumping clean and drug enhancement free.
Personally, I would have felt it very difficult to swallow that a 2 time banned former drugs cheat wins athletics blue ribbon event. |

Apparently if youre American, you can get away with things like that.
Bolt narrowly won. |

I won't pretend I didn't let out a massive shout/scream when he won.
Disappointing to think that a number of the finalists in there were convicted drug cheats so nice to see that someone with a clean record wins the gold. |

"I would have a zero tolerance system in place where a ban is for life...
How about a step further in deterrence and criminalising it."
I don't believe that would be necessary or justifiable other than in the recovery of lost earning for athletes previously beaten by drug cheats
I would like to think once a zero tolerance system was given enough time to become effective there would be no incentive to cheat ....
