I usually write about the Sac State football team. However, I have been on this subject since I have heard about this unforunate event brought to track and field. Marion Jones just confessed that she has been taking steriods through her reign as the fastest woman in the world.
It hurts to hear a professional athlete that is already where you want to make it is cheating, young athletes start to think, "If they do it why shouldn't." She already made it! She is making millions of dollars! She was athe fastest, she desn't need to cheat. Now to save of her butt, she is going to tell on the other athletes that cheated because she lied under oath.
Yes, it is good for the sport to know who is pumping their muscle with drugs to win, but at the same time because you got caught don't be a snitch.
The ad thing is, this not the first time she has been introuble for steriods. When she was in high school at 1000 Oaks in LA she was introuble for missing a drugs test before the state championship. Being in college hearing cases like this and knowing some people like football players, track runners in college are taking anabolic steroids it takes away from the purity of watching the game or the competition that is going on because instead hearing "He is a pretty good athlete." people say, "Yeah, he is taking steriods."
There has also been a trend because all of he former husbanbs were on steriods as well. C.J. Hunter, and Micheal Montegomery. So there was a trend and that she was headed the the wrong way again.
Now Ms. Jones might lose five of her olympic gold medals, and she is realizing that cheating never prospers.
