Marion Jones is a liar post #1  quote:



She lied she admitted it and she is going to be punished with a jail term and stripped of her medals appropriate punishment for a liar and a cheat and hopefully a warning to other athletes who think they can get away with this sort of action.

(Although it is said to be for his health)Lance Armstrong admitted using illegal enhancement drugs and after dominated the Tour De France. How is this fair to other competitors who are clean and train all year for the Tour? (And his team was caught by the French tv throwing away drug paraphernalia.) What punishment should he recieve?

post #3  quote:

No Punishemnt for the following reasons 1. he needed what he took to stay alive, I mean the audacity of the man how dare he not only live but to continue to compete.
2. the governing body was well informed of the medication he had taken and they cleared him fit to compete
3. the vast majority of other competitors knew what the situation were and they did not complain becasue they knew thisa would not give him the edge.

Now comapre that Ms Jones

1. she took the drugs to cheat
2. she covered up her drug taking and lied to a jury about it
3. her competitors knew nothing about it and got scrwed, black and whote competitors I might add you sjopuld remember that.

The thing is if Armstrong had been a black man this would not have outraed you as much would it?

can we debate something without bringing up race? Can you stop race baiting when you post on a subject so twe can stay on topic? This will keep the issue of why Lance Armstrong was allowed to compete in a sport using illegal enhacing drugs.
