3. Jessica Hardy gives up the dope; re ports say she quit the US Olympic team. (Louisville Courier-Journal)
The WaPo guy is out of his mind. I mean the column is written really to be self-promotional of his book. It's absurd, insane and completely immoral. He acts as if the damage isn't fantastic, mentally and physically.
