Normally I look at Athletes accused of doping and frown. Well, not so much with a frown as with total and complete disgust. As everyone knows now, Jessica Hardy of the United States women's Swim Team has been accused of using a performance enhancing substance. We were initially lead to believe that the two viles of blood that were drawn During the Olympic Trials came back with a large amount of a performance enhancing substance. Now more information is coming to light.
NBCOlympics.com is reporting that there were more than just two tests done on Hardy. According to her attorney, Hardy was tested three times during the trials in Omaha, Neb. The results were negative for the samples taken on July 1, after she won the 100-meter breaststroke, and on July 6, shortly after she claimed another individual spot on the team by finishing second to Dara Torres in the 50 freestyle.
But Hardy's ``A'' and backup ``B'' samples both came back positive - for what her attorney said was low amounts of the drug Clenbuterol - from a test on July 4, when she finished fourth in the 100 freestyle.
If she did do this, I hope that she understands that she screwed other girls out of their dreams who worked very hard and made tremendous sacrifices only to be fucked by a cheater.
