**mass junkie** · 08-06-2004, 10:04 PM

Carlos E? Hes aiiight

**enid_sprinter** · 08-06-2004, 10:04 PM

yep, the greatest 100m runner ever.

**enid_sprinter** · 08-06-2004, 10:06 PM

who is carlos e? its Big Ben Johnson. Jamaican born Canadian sprint great. discraced because of heavy steroid use .
When you wind adjust his time compared to TIm Montgomery and Mo Greenes times, his is faster. And tim and mo are hardly clean either, we know the heat tim is in, and i know Mo's old coach, he had some words with me about his nutrition plan..

You must be extremely close with him them, because thats not exactly something he's going to talk about with somebody. It would cost him his job and any future services he ever hopes to get. With all due respect, if he told you that, he's an idiot.

actually its not a secret in the league(international track) who uses and who doesnt, its just a matter of proving it, also coaches in track are usually life time friends, when you part with a coach its usually on bad terms, so youll hear allot of gossip from old coaches.

well put

i watched a documentary on steroids in the olympics...supposably he tested possitive for winni...and the coach said winni..no way i wouldnt give him that..it would dry him out...but i dont know how valid that is

it was also interesting to learn about the east german womans swim team...they were given steroids and told that they were multivits...in the 70s...the girls won each event...and everyone knew something was going on because the girls had deeper voices and looked manly...the familys are now sueing...

steroids and sport go hand and hand...i would be surprised if anyone in the O was natural...especially those weight lifters...almost 600pounds over there heads...nuts.

I'd venture to say the ballroom dancers were mostly au natural

**Froggy** · 08-07-2004, 07:26 AM

Okay...so what about Carl Lewis...the guy Ben Johnson blew away & the guy who got the gold by disqualification...He acted all prissy & "high & mighty" about it all...was he clean or just a good actor?

As much as i would probably agree with you on this one, i train an olympic athlete. She on the US martial arts team, and i'd say she's pretty "au natural". But in a sport like that being bigger or stronger doesnt always give you the upper hand...

Carl Lewis failed a drug test for a stimulant before the olympic race with ben johnson. 6 out of 8 of the people in that 100m final have failed a drug test sometime in their life, before or after that race.

**Froggy** · 08-07-2004, 11:24 AM

Man...I'm way out in left field on this one.
IMHO; No more drug testing!!!!

completly understandable, and a very nice judgement!!

Fred Sanford?

Since the olympics are full of people beating the system of drug testing they should just stop testing all together and get the politics out of the sport. Its not right that one guy gets shafted when the rest of the field were just as tainted. The fastest man on earth should be exactly that, not the fastest man who can beat a test. The crowd is getting turned off by all this talk about Steroid use , if there was little or no testing who would talk. Look at the NFL and the fans they have, people dont give a **** about drug testing they just want to be entertained. No matter what you do, there will be drugs in pretty much all olympic sports. You cant tell me that Ben Johnson did not work just as hard to get to the level he was at then the next guy. Everyone one on this site knows that even on the juice you bust your ass and nothing comes easy. BEN GOT RIPPED OFF!!
