    That is not right. to take illegal steroids and have an edge on competition is wrong. Now Sugar Shane Mosley stated past week that he also took steroids when he fought Oscar on the second fight. That is so wrong.

    She did not set any records those records are held by Florence Joiner, who died suddenly at a very young age. She never tested positive for drugs, but looked and ran like she used them.

    She will lose all of the medals and titles won during this time, just like Ben Johnson, who did test positive and testified against his coach who supplied the drugs.

    I don't feel any pity because she made the choice, and should have understood what would happen.

    Johnson served a 2 year ban and then failed another test and was banned for life.

    She retired, but has not run well anyway.

    She will be banned, after the IOC and IAAF finish their investigations.

    I think it's a shame that such a good athlete would have to stoop to such levels to win. to me she was at the top of the field in her division, there wasn't a need to take performance enhancing drugs. I think she did her self a grave injustice as well as all America. Track and field will be under the microscope for years to come. I do wish her the best and hope they let her keep some shred of her dignity.

    I think that marion is pretty sad. She had an interview in 2000 i think where she stated that she "took nothing.... and has used her God given ability" thats a total lie now. She should lose her medals due to being a cheater.
