jazz..

are u saying that he did this in order to get away from the drug testers?

as a kid carl lewis was my idol. he really was. but when i found out he was a drug cheat i lost any hope in the guy. its devastating.

just a question though..

1988 100m olympic final

ben johnson 1st
carl lewis - 2nd
linford christie - 3rd

who was fourth? dennis mitchell?

if that was the finish, wouldnt that make it the top 4 finishers being busted for drugs at some point in their careers?

anyone know the times and placing of the finalists in the 1988 olympic 100m?
