IOC steps up war on dopers 4:24pm on 08 Oct 2008 I think it originates from the fact that some cyclists were caught in the Tour using this test. and now two more have been caught from their samples in the tour as the test has been developed.
I think the worrying thing is that only 4 sports seem to do tests on the blood of the athletes. This means that sports such as swimming could be getting away with quite a lot( remember the Irish female swimmer who came out of nowhere). I believe that all sports should do the same testing and have the same punishments. Whilst the athlete is primarily at fault i do think that the governing bodies also need to weed out the suppliers, dealers, doctors and coaches who encourage systematic doping and force athletes to take drugs.

I believe that athletes should be given life bans automatically and only reduced to two years if they work with the authorities and name their suppliers and coaches who were involved in the doping process, and then no athlete is allowed to work with these people. At the moment all that happens is they move on to the next athlete
The demons that drive Romero 4:45pm on 17 Aug 2008 hey if if phelps wasnt there we would be equal with the yanks
Move over Murray, these Games ain't for you 6:50pm on 11 Aug 2008 Hi

I cannot believe what i have just read from somebody who works for the BBC.

He has just written a piece that is easy to write without any substance.

I agree Murray played badly but that is sport and lets not forget the other guy played well.

why when one of our top performers doesn't play well is it always because they cannot be bothered.

If Murray did not want to play he would not have gone and not have won the doubles.

Maybe Tennis should not be in the tournament but there are other sports such as Road Cycling( where we won a gold) and boxing (where we are likely to win medals) where the olympics are not the pinnacle of an athletes career. It is a great sport so why should the best not be there.

And all this it's because he does not want to represent Britain is a load of rubbish. He just played a bad game, and luckily he has not played many of them this year.

Stop the tabloid journalism please
