August 21, 200818 yr do you think that a good -portion of the athletes compeating in the olympics are cheating in someway? and what sports do you think are the "dirty"
August 21, 200818 yr I highly doubt that more than two or three athletes might have been taking drugs. The olympics have very strict drug testing schemes, and as such, is highly unlikely that a significant number of athletes would risk taking drugs. As I believe, already two athletes were found positive for drugs.
August 21, 200818 yr I agree, I don't think a good portion of the athletes are using performance-enhancing steroids. It's usually only a couple (who are discovered anyway), mostly because the consequences are pretty severe. The sports with the worst reputations for steroid use are probably weight-lifting and cycling.
August 24, 200818 yr I agree with the opinions so far - the Olympics are a highly publicised event, and only really stupid athletes would try and cheat using steroids. Firstly, it would seriously damage their reputation if they were caught, and secondly, the drug screening systems are top-of-the-line, meaning if you do take performance-enhancing drugs, you almost certainly well get caught. :yes: Seriously, abuse of performance-enhancing drugs is totally unsporting. :(
