Can we enjoy watching any sport anymore? I used to love watching athletics but there just seems to be too much of this now to make it worthwhile.

I am sure some people enjoy watching Tyson Gay

I turned to this thread intrigued to find out what a gay drug was ....
and what they had banned.... sudduv do high heels count as a droog ?
( I suppose they do to some .... )

Not so sure there's more of it or just more being caught, either way I don't think that one year is long enough to put others off, it should be ten years minimum, IMO.

Headlines are meant to intrigue.

I, too, was intrigued by the gay drugs reference.
Too many cheats in sport. It's very upsetting that we have to question every successful athlete.

"Headlines are meant to intrigue."
Like thread titles suggesting special drugs for homosexuals ?

[Frank97]

Yet he will be running again next month, some ban that!

[Zacs-Master]

Tell me where my headline is inaccurate OG.

[Old_Geezer]

There are no drugs purely for gays, and no one has been banned from testing for them.

I understood the title, especially with it being in the Sport section.......

seems he got time off for good behaviour, which is not an uncommon occurrence in any justice system.

Aside from the length of sentence, though... No, I haven't watched cycling for years and never believed Lance Armstrong was innocent. When there's fame and wealth at stake, people break rules.

For all that, there are tests all the time, and you have to hope they're keeping up with the doping industry. I saw Usain Bolt at the Olympics: wonderful and I'd be very disappointed if he was ever charged with anything.

So he was sure in fact he was positive
