Doping - this is getting OLD

The latest doping news (Greece, Peru, et al) continues to be another black eye & worn out record for the problem that permeates this and other sports.

This is both bad and good news. Bad, in that it once again hurts the sport of Weightlifting for those who really are clean and love the purity of the sport. Good, that people care getting caught and tends to discourage their use & helps USA lifters, who are mostly clean. I am just afraid that the IOC will ban this sport because of countries and individuals who persist in taking banned substances; the IOC may just deem this sport too dirty & too hard to keep clean.
