@ohedd : are you kidding? Flo Jo was roided off her head. She'd never run under 10.9secs then she runs a 10.48, still the world's most illegitimate record.....the US just never got caught, cos they have the money to keep the illegal drugs one step ahead of the testing regimes....read Marion Jones & all the Balco group....grow up & join the real world.

WTF!!

@TubeCrafter I dont blame east for taking more steroids than west. Though, USSR and DDR, the government did intentionally dope their athletes. And yes, I believe the biggest reason for USSR being the #1 nation in the world at sports during the 80s' was because of their succesful recruiting systems and techniqual progression rather than just roids. I also believe the biggest reason USA were right up there behind them was because they have great high school and college athletics traditions.

I for example find it funny how supposedly clean American swimmers could easily compete with drugged East Germans. Russians by the way never had such success in swimming (not enough doping?, a lot smaller population of East Germany could do it and USSR couldn't what's the catch? I guess Russians were not that much into drugs as someone would like to believe). Russian success in swimming is pretty much about skilled and very technical swimmers like Popov, Sadovy, Pankratov and that's is it.

@ohedd If you want to make it, you gotta use it, it is everywhere like that on the highest level of competition, including West that always had overwhelming success in power and endurance sports.

@TubeCrafter Yeah definately. The Russians are known for executing everything techniqually flawlessly, and nothing was really accessible in the Soviet market... However they did use drugs and it wasn't really optional, as much as a sort of a mandatory obligation.
he-he that is my father)))

When I mentioned clean initially, it was with regards to hip height over the bar. Paklin never tested positive during his career and it's wrong to intimate that.
