OT: Usain Bolt Loses Last Race

[hussybulldog]

As pointed out before, his first failed drug test was for a prescribed ADD medication he had been taking for years. His penalty was significantly reduced on appeal and the committee said there had been no attempt to cheat.

Well, Many people used that excuses. For one, Sharapova. Also there are also athletes got approved to take certain drugs for treatments. ( I remember one US female gymnast is taking one for her ADD.) I just thought if it is not life threatening situation and one athlete is allowed taking certain drug, then that drug should be allowed for everyone. Otherwise it is just not a fair playing field.

Watching him run was a real pleasure. I am in awe of great athletes and his speed was eye opening.
