Australia is set to host a drug enhanced sporting event, with one swimmer announcing that he'll juice to the gills.

Who would you like to see competing and on what??

It wouldn't surprise me to see good old Lance firing down the EPO to compete in a triathlon.....

It can't end well...seems he is keen on the payment he is getting for it. I did laugh when he said he wants to go to the us and have it done safely and properly...I'm unsure any of this can be safe or proper.

How did I know that 'Billionaire Peter Thiel' would pop up connected to this?

I'm sure half the 'juice' involved can't even be legally imported or prescribed for athletic enhancement purposes in Australia, so I'm not quite sure how they're going to manage it.

Although it's an interesting concept it seems incredibly dangerous.  Not just for the competitors but for the others it will 'inspire'.  😞

Yep. Tom Simpson is still saluted as a hero but deaths like that will be the cost of doing business if you allow unrestricted doping.
