A friend of mine lost a medal to East German steroids.

Were Americans the only athletes who felt like it was cheating back then? Because I know that was the prevalent attitude in the AAU.

everyone at that level is doping.

some are just ahead of the curve and using drugs that haven’t been banned yet or are better at hiding it.

Just look at the eyes of ANY top level sprinter in the world right before a race. I have seen crack heads with clearer less drugged looking eyes.

The problem is that we are on the verge of performance-enhancing drugs based on the athlete’s own adult stem cells. In short, completely undetectable even with blood analysis.

Reminds me of a comment made during the Space Race when the Russians got into orbit first... (NASA official) “Their Germans were better than our Germans.”

Xue Yinxian is a 79-year-old former Chinese doctor...

Wait. Is he no longer Chinese, or no longer a doctor?
