whats evryones thoughts on this topic???

 

what anoys me is the court overturning our olympic comitys ruling,,, we had rules in place and you abide by them....

 

i dont actualy mind hes back in ,, the fact he had gear,,,or i should say got cought..... how many more dont get cought...

 

its just this court of arbitration that overturns the rules

He knew what he was doing ,he should be banned for life , end of .

Same with Miller.

 

For years I cycled, fast road work, non competitive, but I was addicted to the cyle racing, had idols in the sport etc and was always trying to improve, same as anyone who gets into a sport. But eventually it became apparent that without chemical help, there was no way I could achieve a fraction of what these boys were doing, It was depressing to the point where I stopped for a while. They are cheats, full stop. They should be banned from international compitition at the very least, for life.

Can't remember the fact of the case TOMO, was he caught on one of these mickey mouse type charges like he had one too many dispirin or was he out and out on the gear??

 

If its the former, then I say fine, let him back in if it's the latter then he should be aimed out for life.

The thing is Tomo.....its only the British athletes that get banned for that long.....the rest of the world have 2 year bans,some athletes ( world class ) have been banned 2 and 3 times and can still go to the Olympics.......who are we to say whats right,we cant write our own rules and expect the rest of the world to follow our lead.

The tragedy i find in Chambers case was that he was already an incredible sprinter before using gear i read somewhere he ran under 10 seconds as a 19 year old he was just easily led by people who saw $$$$$.

He took it on the chin like a proper chap should if a life ban was the punishment he shouldnt be allowed back......but its not..............so he,s entitled to earn his living and continue chasing his dream in my opinion.

I can respect that point of view also mate, but he knew the crack and if you can't do the time don't do the crime

He did do the time,he didnt cry about it.............but now he,s allowed back we cant change the rules just because Britain sees it in a worse light than the rest of the world......

The reality is sad as it might seem........top level power/endurance sports these days the crime is not taking gear the crime is getting caught

I suppose it should be even handed across sport, that for sure......remember Ronaldo walking out to that world cup final doped up to f**k??.......thinking about it logically, Brazil should be banned from football if we are applying the same rules to everyone.

And that was at the biggest single sporting game on the planet......as you say, it's there and it's a fact.....shame but there you go.

 

Maybe I am just a shameless idealist !!! Lol lol

Why dont they just allow all these substances and see what happens. I mean its not like he's is wearing 2 robotic legs and winning races. These drugs are performance related so everyone should benefit, or do some people benefit more than others? If so then that would be a reason for banning.

got caught meself a few year ago i was taking huge anal suppositries ,that were meant to build muscle ,turns out the were just bloody kinder eggs lol

[gonetoearth 5,144]

PERFOMANCE ENHANSING DRUGS HAVE NO PLACE IN AMATURE SPORT

yeh thats kinda what i was getting at,, i donrt like the fact the courts made us have to change,, just cos the rest of the world only ban for 2 years.... its our rules and thats that.....or it was..

 

i always thought he was alright to be honest ,, and think he should have just got 2 years ,,,,, but banning was our way...

 

 

if he does get a place,,, and knocks harry atkin arreete out,, it will be sad for the kid...........but has anyone noticed the size of areete,, the kids huge ,,, he realy does look like bodybuilder..............i might be stereo typing,, but if he aint took owt,, then he is one gifted individual geneticly
