Persumably he will be given a chance to clear his name .

This is a very topical issue though , especially since we are fast approaching the commencement of the Olympic games .

When you see athletes standing on the podium , during the games , how can we be sure who is really there , due to pure merit ?

I take a very sceptical view of these things . I think that all the top sports stars use performance enhancing preparations . The ones who don't test positive are using substances which haven't yet been added to the banned list . Maybe I'm being too sceptical - perhaps I should be more ready to give the benefit of the doubt ? - I dont know .
