For years I have been thinking about the performance of
Florence Joyner Griffith's world record in the 100 and 200-meters dash
set in 1988, which has never been broken for more than 35 years, not
even closely touched by any other women athlete. That was really a
performance thought of as impossible, but that it stood for so long
tells the whole story of how it was achieved.
Then she died
suddenly at age 38 in her sleep. That was a clear indication and the
result of her prolonged use of steroids or performance enhancing drugs
in her record-breaking feat. The World Wrestling Entertainment is full
of wrestlers on steroids that passed away suddenly and most of them at a
young age. Just look at her massive thighs indicating steroid use. Her
death was officially attributed to a childhood birth defect. Nice try
indeed, but unconvincing. They tried to musk her feat with claims that
she was tested and there were no indication of any performance enhancing
drug use. How did they do it is no mystery.
In the past, not
all performance enhancing drugs were considered illegal and many were
just added on as banned substances as the years go by. What may be
illegal today may have been ignored in past testing regime, and Florence
Joyner Griffith may just be fortunate to have taken advantage of the
loopholes to leverage on her performance. Or that the USA knew what to
avoid in order to clear her path to participate. The USA's exploiting
loopholes is an art that it has perfected. Her record will never be
broken and will help the USA to hang on to the two records in history
forever to gloat upon.
Now, any outstanding performances by any
athlete is being accused of doping in the eyes of the USA and the West,
especially when it comes to Asian performances. Chinese swimmer Pan
Zhanle's world record in the 100-meter free style long course event, the
only swimming world record at the Paris Olympics thus far, has been
under intense scrutiny and thought of as just impossible.
Co-incidentally there was also a report of another Caucasian athlete
that shaved even more seconds from his or her personal best ever and
never been accused of being on drugs.
As China continues to
dominate and the USA losing its dominance in swimming and track and
field, more unfair measures will be added to thwart Asian performances.
When they cannot win by merit, they will resort to using foul means.
On
a lighter note, have they started on BYDs dominance of EVs as being on
doping too? Or China's dominance in manufacturing as all fueled by
doping, LOL. That cannot work, right? So inventing over-capacity was
thought to work. The USA and the West are very innovative when it comes
to playing the demonizing game. Think of the US$300 million too and what
it can do.

Many USA athletes had been tested positive for drug violations but were given immunity by the World Anti-Doping Agency to participate despite their doping history.
ReplyDeleteThe USA, according to a list compiled to indicate the percentage of drug violations its athletes committed is way ahead of China at 1.2% as against China's 0.2%. This is despite China having three times more athletes tested. Even Canada is no angel in drug usage testing coming in at 1.1%.
Nobody can beat that great drug cheat, Lance Armstrong.
ReplyDeleteUSA had many drug cheats. The Williams sisters in Tennis. Florence Joyner Griffith in athletics. Marion Jones in athletics as well among others. The first two escaped punishment using the 'immunity' excuse. The third did not escape punishment.
ReplyDeleteSha'Carri Richardson in athletics is now still competing in Paris. Simone Bile in gymnastics is now still competing in Paris. Nobody talks about them nor raise questions about their past drug violations. Not the MSM, not the coaches, not those who are competing against them.
So, how clean are the athletics competition really? How clean are the gymnastics competition really? The same questions they are asking about swimming being tainted by doping, just because of Pan Zanle's 100mt freestyle world record in Paris. They keep digging at this past conviction to tarnish his accomplishments. Why are they not digging up the past on Sha'Carri Richardson or Simone Biles?
Lance Armstrong was a drug cheat for years. And they did not find out? Oh yes, lest I forget he was under immunity, which means no suspension even if tested positive. This is according to USA's 'Rules Based Order', silly me.
ReplyDeleteI think this incident is a good start to expose the USA doping record over the years. According to sources, many of the USA swimmers were often on asthma medication to enhance blood flow and was given the nickname ' The Asthma Team'. Many of the USA gymnast were on another drug, Adderol, to improve their concentration and was given the nickname 'The ADHD Team'.
ReplyDeleteThese drugs are for enhancing performance, nothing more nothing less and yet no one on MSM, no coaches or other competitors have any complaints for years. What is the point of having the World Anti-Doping Agency when it is not doing its job properly and fairly?
Free from drugs or free from punishment? I do not believe in the first point, but I believe in the second point.
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows the USA is infested with drug addicts . Just look at their cities, at Kensington in Pennsylvania. They call that street 'Pennsylvania Zombie Street'. That is just one of many drug hubs in the USA.
ReplyDeleteBut the USA tried to hide them away, just like hiding their drug addicted athletes on the pretext of asthma or birth defects that needed drugs to make them perform better.
