I applaud John Leonard’s courage in telling the world about the Chinese having alien technology. If it is true Ye’s genes were manipulated 17 years ago, then it predated the mapping of human genome.

What other explanation is there besides the evil Chinese have sold us out to the aliens? It’s been known the aliens are modifying our genes, just ask Falun Gong, they revealed this truth about alien ghost possession and was brutally persecuted by the communist government.

If we don’t stop the evil commies, they’ll start making super soldiers and help the alien invade earth.

Kudos, John Leonard, kudos.

“But a woman does not out-swim the fastest man in the world in the back quarter of a 400m IM that is otherwise quite ordinary. It just doesn’t happen.”

I’d love to see the day when a woman actually can out-swim a man.

“The Chinese team has always had a firm policy about doping.”

Yes, a very firm ‘cheat, but don’t get caught, and look absolutely scandalised that these foul anti-China Imperialist Dogs would have the gall to accuse you of cheating if you do’ policy.

*worth looking through?

The guy sure apologises a lot, though. (And I think if a Kenyan had won this event, there would probably be a lot more outcry over it for various reasons).

Well, at least Stephanie Rice didn’t win.

I’ll get the conversation started here. My opinion is if you’re someone in Leonard’s position, with his leverage, and going to accuse a rival of cheating, don’t pussyfoot around with euphemisms. Step out on a limb and make the damn accusation — or shut the hell up. Absent facts, those seem like the best options.
