    I don't find any of this necessarily shocking since Lance Armstrong and so many others in Track and Field have admitted to it over the year, but for someone as big as the BBC going after someone as big as Salazar is pretty interesting to see.

     

    Just thought I would throw this out there.

      Interesting to see Goucher come out so strong against him too.  Reminds me of my mom always telling me to be nice to people even if and especially if I had talent at something.  Villians have talent too she'd remind me.  Ive always admired Salazar but wondered if he was kind of the Bill Belichik of professional running.

       

      On a related note this came out a few days ago:

      http://www.thesundaytimes.co.uk/sto/news/uk_news/thedopingscandal/article1588427.ece?shareToken=5f8e49b5a553daf6f2d5d34a937aa58c

       

      A follow up suggests the majority of suspicious results come from Russian race walkers, and the same follow up made a point to state there were no suspicious results for Mo Farrah.

        The Russian and Kenyan allegations make Salazar's asthma medication look like child's play.

            Yeah I just watched the German report last night.  My German was a bit rusty but I got most of it.  Then I found it in English and watched the main sections with with hidden video.

             

            I also saw that Mo and Bolt seem to have clear records.
