>>>>Drug suspensions are a joke in all American professional sports. It is not unusual for guys who are caught doping in the most popular U.S. league, the National Football League, to be suspended for just four games -- not even the rest of the season. There are also graduated penalties so a player doesn't get a serious punishment until he has been caught multiple times. I would love to see the penalties to be in line with international sports like the Olympics. If you get caught even once you are in serious trouble. That such is not the case in the U.S. tells you all you need to know about the owners' view of running a clean sport vs. running a profitable sport.

>>>I wondered that. I thought USA a big warrior for anti-doping. Maybe Maradona should played at USA... :)))

>>It's all posturing. There has been a major scandal about drugs in baseball, but it had to become so obvious your Aunt Tildi could see it before it was confronted. And drugs in football is the 800 pound gorilla nobody wants to go near. Too much money at stake. People willfully believe all these guys who weigh 250-300 pounds and can run the 100 in 11 seconds got there by natural means. Some did, most didn't. And we look the other way and enjoy the games.

>Sorry, what's mean Aunt Tildi? I think so it's a say mean foolish and blind person?

No, just some random person who doesn't follow the events closely. There was no meaning to the name Tildi.
