What she said seemed fairly ambiguous anyway, really. "You just have to smile" could mean anything, depending on context. Obviously yer red tops are gonna be looking for the scandle angel tho.

Think if you fail a drugs Tests all medals from your career prior to then should be stripped itbt

You are talking about Konstantinos Kenteris. Id like to see evidence of this soon found proof as Im pretty sure no such evidence exists.

The only proof he'd have is that he missed a drugs test.

Yeah, I wouldnt be suprised in the slightest if Kenteris was a drugs cheat. However there is no evidence.

He was rightly banned for missed tests but that punishment preserves the law rather than proves any drug use.

a la Ougourou or whatever shes called

Hazy memory on my part then, fair enough. Did he miss a drugs test and claim it because of a motorcycle accident, is that what happened?

Yes, along with another sprinter Katerina Thanou, not too sure about her first name.

Bollocks. How many more tests do they need to prove that Bolt was simply the best? Sour grapes.
