Monday morning steroids dose: Madonna, Olympics, Jamaican yams, and Greek communists

1.  Madonna doesn't dope.  But who cares.  (BILD.de)

2.  Acting like they been there before, Jamaica's paper says it was only a matter of time before the country dominated in sprints.  (The Jamaican Gleaner)

It all began when Bolt's father, Wellesley, was asked what contributed to his son's success on the track.

"It's definitely the Trelawney yam," said Bolt, whose family hails from the rural parish in Jamaica's northwest.

3.  No swimmers showed positive doping tests at the Olympics (The Australian)

4.  Those Olympic medals costs alot (but the corporations pay alot in advertising) (finding Dulcinea)

5.  The Communist Party of Greece doesn't like the Olympics.  (Athens News Agency)

Focusing on the issue of doping and the Olympic, Papariga said that "the question is that the role and whatever value the Olympic Games had is over," adding that "we must disengage ourselves from this institution."

She further said that top performances in search of medals are "being encouraged by banks, industries."

6.  People now looking to see if Jamaican yams supply steroids.  (Toronto Star)

Exactly what do you mean by "acting" like we've been there before? It is historical fact that Jamaican sprinters (and Jamaican born) have always been in medal contention at every Olympics and World Championships for the past few decades.

Tyson Gay, Mr. 9.68, gets injured and is not a contender for the 100m and 200m, Bolt steps up and wins both in his (and Powell's) absence and it's because Bolt is on drugs? C'mon, get real.

The three USA women in the 100m final all perform below their season best and it is the fault of the Jamaican women for winning medals? C'mon, get real.

Both USA relay teams drop their batons and are out of contention, the Jamaicans step up and, save for a dropped baton by the women, win in their absence and again it is the fault of the Jamaicans? Sheesh.

For various reasons, one group of athletes (USA sprinters) have sub-par performances, while another group (Jamaican sprinters) take advantage and the blame is put on those that perform as they should? Where is the logic in that?

Post fact(s), not innuendo, and then maybe you will be taken seriously.
