Greek sprinters withdraw from games
« on: August 18, 2004, 09:02:06 PM »

Kostas Kenteris won gold last year and Katerina Thanou finished second in the 100m last year to what I\'m sure was a doping Marion Jones,  and with Jones out I thought Thanou had the 100m sealed up...

I\'m so depressed right now,  I had so much hope riding with these guys,  and boom, this.

So far I\'m leaning to believe what they said.  They seem to be victims of circumstances.

And I also dont like how the olympic committe is all over them but they do very little to Tim Mongomery and Marion Jones,  its like they are picking on them

Olympians can\'t even have caffiene in their blood, right? At least a certain amount.

Well, they have spent the last week in the hospital changing blood.. so if they had nothing to hide, why did they not show up for the first test?

If I remember well they said they werent well informed about when the test was going to be.But then again it\'s kind of self-evident that if you dont show up for the test you ll get yourself into trouble anyways.And I am sure they knew that.So I cant say for sure sure they didnt go becuase they wanted to hide something.
On the other hand why did Kenteris say he would stop cooperation with his trainer?
Who knows.Its a strange case.

As experienced Olympic atheletes, they should know that it\'s common practice to be tested and they both should have been aware of this. There is no excuse for such an important event. No excuse.

That motorcycle crash? It\'s a red herring.

Not well informed? Its probably one of the most important tests before the Olympic games? Does not compute.

He breaking of with his trainer is just for show.. Soon we will hear "he slipped something into my drink without me knowing it *sniff* *buuhuu*" .. Worked for Ludmila Enqvist, but not the second time.. :D

They didn\'t look very injured to me considering they are supposed to have come off a motorcycle.

I believe their trainer told them to use dopes, pretend they werent informed as an excuse they wouldnt appear for the test and arrange a fake accident.
