Answer 1

There are lots of people caught doing drugs in many sports, and athletics, track and field is not even among the top 20 sports.

Most athletes do not get any news coverage, so the ones you see leads people to believe this is the only problem.

The famous athletes are in the news and the athletes that are not famous are never mentioned.

Weight lifting has the most cheats and most of those come from European countries.

Think about cycling and how many individuals and teams were kicked out of the Tour de France and other races this year. That is a lot more than athletics and all of the cheats in the U.S.

Answer 2

I really cannot remember the IOC catching US athletes, most of those were caught by the USOC or investigations like the Balco Labs scandal. Thats where Marion Jones was caught. It was the USOC that made her turn in her medals. I do remember that after East Germany reunited with Germany they admitted to widescale cheating in almost every sport. The drug use was so common that the former Olympic athletes filed lawsuits against former East German officials for doping them even when they did not know it. Those former East German athletes revealed that most everyone in the former Soviet training centers were doped. After eight years though the IOC cannot reclaim the medals so many of the doped records gotten by swimmers and runners from EG can still stand. I am trying to think of more US athletes but cannot come up with many. Ben Johnson of Canada was the first sprinter that I can think of being disqualified. Maybe the media coverage in the US makes it seem like more but I cannot think of very many sprinters or distance people. Does anyone have names of US athletes disqualified for drugs.

Answer 3

USA in athletics (running).

Answer 4

U.S.A athletics
