Thumbs down Marion Jones admits doping

Report: Marion Jones admits doping - Yahoo! News

Jones also sent family and close friends a letter in which she said she used steroids before the Sydney Games, The Washington Post reported Thursday. The Post was the first to report that Jones would come clean on doping.

"I want to apologize for all of this," the Post reported Jones saying in her letter, quoting a person who received a copy and read it to the paper. "I am sorry for disappointing you all in so many ways."

Jones said in her letter that she faced up to six months in jail and would be sentenced in three months, according to the newspaper.

The admission also could cost Jones the five medals she won in Sydney, where she was the most celebrated female athlete of the games. She didn't win the five golds she wanted, but she came away with three and two bronzes, and her bright smile and charming personality made her a star.

----------

Not surprised really after all the talk and connections she had. Who next?

In fact she faces jail for have lied to federal agents not for doping. Also she claims she did not know what she was taking and did what she was told to do.

This will definetly be remembered as the era of steroids. It is rampant and hopefully these individuals will be punished so severely that future generations will understand the words of the great Bas Rutten (former ufc and pancrease champ.) : "You can buy muscles but you can't buy COJONES"

Doping is such a huge problem these days, and it is a thread especially to school students. I hope the 'roid crackdown continues.
