I mean, now Marion Jones is (ahem) coming clean? Okay, what's next? Are we going to find out that CHEERLEADERS are juicing (among other enhancements)? What has the sports world come to, people? Is nothing in sports pure anymore? If it's not juicing, it's cheating. If it's not cheating, it's gambling. If it's not gambling it's rigging, and so on and so on.
The question is, have the past 25 years and even beyond in sports been a lie, a joke, a scam, all of it? WTF?

Yes it is a shame what is going on, but what's to say it has not been going on since sports have been around, as long as there is money to be made, you will find some people willing to corrupt themselves and those around them to make a profit. Closer monitoring, and then monitor those that are monitoring, yeah where does it end, solution?

It will make most record books obsolete, especially in baseball. Barry Bonds wins nothing, he conquered the record book, and destroyed it in the process. It says something bad to the youth, that cheating is the way to success, and that is the saddest part. Many of these athletes will have severe health problems for the rest of their lives. Look at Ken Camanati, he won an MVP award and a very early grave from using steroids.
