Olympics

I always thought she was lying about taking performance enhancing drugs, because when she was trying to make a comeback, she routinely got her butt kicked. Even when she was being accused of the crime, she would angrily deny the accusations. You know the saying: He/She doth protest too much. I say "Ha-Ha-Ha" to Miss Jones!!

Over the years, I.ve watched this fine athelete perform beyond anyone's expectations. She was not only a fine athelete, she carried herself with pride and dignity. I as many, held her in high esteem. She was indeed deserving of great praise and the high pedestal on which we placed her.

In the eyes of many, she has fallen from that pedestal. She has fallen because she came clean and admitted her use of steroids. I truly hope that good conscience and maturity are what prompted her to admit her indiscretions, and not the fear of being outed by someone else. If this is the case, I will continue to keep her on that pedestal. What say you?

People like Marion Jones could learn something from her. Talka about overcoming adversity.

Also, do you believe that any of these track athletes are drug free?

I do. I mean, what she did was wrong. But I still can't help feeling a little sorry for her.

Its one thing to cheat and quite another to keep on lying about it under oath.

Personally I would be willing to forgive her (and the many others like her, Floyd Landis included - sorry Floyd but the evidence speaks against you) if they would simply admit they made a mistake. We all make mistakes in life, and they are only compounded by denying them.

Personally I would have more respect for her (and the many others like her) if they would voluntarily give up their medals and admit that it was wrong to cheat. Furthermore, I think that the athletes themselves would be better off; as winning at big competitions is nice but self-esteem is way more important.

Furthermore we're all partly to blame because we put so much emphasis on winning with stupid slogans like: 'if you're not cheating, you're not trying hard enough'. Aren't we?

Your thoughts?

By nurturing very young children in sports are we not going down the route of the old Eastern Block countries took and we so much despised? All so we a few individuals might get a gold. Isn't it better to give our children a healthy balance of sporting experience rather than coaching them to the point of obsession in one sport?

Sport plays an important part in the lives of many Australians. Badminton has a surprisingly long history given its relatively recent introduction onto the Olympic scene. The International Badminton Federation was born in 1934 with Australia joining soon after. However statistics show that the types of people participating in Badminton in Australia do not closely resemble the types of people participating overall in sport and physical activity Australia wide.
