Bolt v Gatlin

[p4pking]

I actually think track and field athletes should be allowed to dope, let's just see who can possibly run the fastest, jump the highest, with the benefit of the freakiest steroids out there, who cares. The way dopers are treated in mainstream and olympic events compared to boxing is a head trip really, when you consider the nature of it.

Where do you draw the line? Allow it in boxing?

I'd draw the line in any contact sport, where you have the potential to hurt a guy badly affecting his livelihood, so of course not boxing. As Fenster said, there are HOFers everyone knows juiced, and nobody cares, even though it clearly could have far worse consequences in a combat sport than most any other. I understand that it's not fair to legalize it in other athletics either, I'm just not much of a sports fan and couldn't personally care less as long as guys aren't getting physically harmed for it. Athletes shouldn't be role models for anyone in the first place imo.
