Jamaican Dominance in Sprinting Will Lead to More Steroid Testing

Jamaican Dominance in Sprinting Will Lead to More Steroid Testing
by Millard Baker ~ source

Usain Bolt, the two-time Olympic champion in the 100-meters and 200-meters, has been suspected of using anabolic steroids by several people. There has been no evidence to suggest he used steroids. But in the midst of today?s steroid hysteria, every remarkable athletic performance is under suspicion. And it?s not just Bolt but the performances of the entire squad of Jamaican sprinters.

After all, Jamaica set a world record in the 4?100-meter relay; Bolt, Yohan Blake and Warren Weir won gold, silver and bronze in the 200-meters; and Bolt and Blake won first and second in the 100-meters.

Dick Pound, a current member of the International Olympic committee, thinks that anti-doping authorities will push for more steroid testing of Jamaican athletes in the aftermath of the 2012 London Olympics. Pound doesn?t believe Jamaica has done a good job at testing its athletes up to this point implying that its sprinters may have a greater chance of getting away with doping.

?No, they are one of the groups that are hard to test, it is (hard) to get in and find them and so forth,? Pound told Reuters Television. ?I think they can expect, with the extraordinary results that they have had, that they will be on everybody?s radar.?

Pound is the former chief of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and has intimate knowledge of how the anti-doping system works. He recognizes that Jamaica does not have a national anti-doping agency that tests its athletes on a regular basis like many other countries.

Pound is not the only one to point out the lack of a level playing field when it comes to steroid testing for Jamaican athletes. Victor Conte, the mastermind behind the BALCO designer steroid scandal in elite sports, has repeatedly highlighted the less stringent anti-doping rules applied to Jamaican athletes. Carl Lewis, the 100-meter gold medalist at the 2004 Los Angeles and 2008 Seoul Olympics, has also made note of this. Bolt roundly criticized Lewis for his comments in the moments after his victory in London.

Over 5000 steroid- and anti-doping tests were performed at the London Olympics. Far less than one percent of the athletes tested positive. None of Jamaica?s elite sprinters tested positive.

Haters Gonna Hate.....

 

[jay_steel]

put them all on gear... I think those brazillian beach volleyball girls dabbed in a lil Tren here and there. Those girls were insane and looked pissed the entire olympics...

 

[heavyiron]

Bolt is a genetic freak. Looked like a giant sprinting next to children in the races.

I don't give a whoot about the whole olympics thing. Ban the entire games for shits sake. They're all cheaters.

I just read that whole article and the only thing that sticks in my craw is that there's a dude out there that went through life with name dick pound!

 

[teezhay]

Fuck this shit. I'm so tired of seeing these delusional old fogies pushing to achieve an unattainable goal through unsustainable means. This idea that somehow drugs are all that tarnishes the "level playing field" is absolutely absurd. Some athletes get an edge by training with the best coach, some alter their RBC by sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber (legal under IOC rules, by the way), others train at varying altitudes, others are disadvantaged because of some sort of injury, Randy Couture has some fucked up shit going on with his genes that alters his body's response to lactic acid, and what the FUCK is the IOC going to do when those kids with the myostatin mutation grow up to be the world's greatest Olympic lifters/wrestlers/anything they want? Answer: Nothing. This "level playing field" fantasy is just that - a goddamned fantasy. And when there's normal everyday Olympic athletes getting their asses kicked by motherfucking mutants, the IOC isn't going to know what the hell to do.

The answer is to let these guys do anything they want. Hell, require a prescription just for safety's sake. But let them shoot all the steroids and growth hormone their doctor gives them, while chugging protein shakes mixed with ground up amphetamine and diuretics. Then, have them draw their own blood the night before the race and shoot that shit right back into their veins the next morning (I have no clue if that's how that works, but it sounds awesome). WHO. CARES. I want to see baseball players belting 600 foot home runs off 110MPH fastballs! I want to see linebackers hitting quarterbacks like a freight train and knocking them 5 feet off the ground. I want to see Olympic sprinters running 400m in 30 seconds, then punching holes in walls in the locker room because they're so amped the fuck up on some Standard Donkey doses of tren. I want to see some real shit go down and I'm tired of this mentality of, "Ohhh, Usain Bolt is just too fast. We should find a way to suspend him..." Fuck you! Nothing is too fast! I want faster!

Enough is enough. I don't want to see freaks of nature participating in the Olympic Games, I want freaks of a bad chemistry experiment gone even worse.

Yeah, that is a great name. Sounds like a vintage porn name

 

[iSteroids]

They already do a ton of testing in the Olympics, I don't think it can get better than what it is now.

It's the curry goat, ackee and salt fish that makes them fast.

 

[Acee]

Gear them all up, lets see how high, how fast we really can run, what we can lift.

It's all about the scientists and chemistry now, can test for stimulants and steroids but what about sarms, new research chemicals etc

[jshel12]

legalize it and lets see how far they can really push it, not that they don't find loopholes now

 

[Diesel618]

Did I read that right? Carl Lewis competed in the 2004 and 2008 Olympics? Didn't he get smoked by Ben Johnson back in 88? You're tellin me he was a world class sprinter for over 20 years?
