Following on from the discovery that Greg Rusedski has higher than permitted levels of nandralone in his body it occurs to me that there are a lot of people who take drugs to build rediculous physiques. If that's their bag then good luck to them. However, they can't be expected to mix in, competitively, with non-drug takers so the answer is to give them their own set of sports. I don't mean Mr. Universe or those TV programs with outsized blokes hurling barrels with their little fingers or towing trucks with only a bootlace gripped between their teeth. I'd like to see them run a marathon, run a mile, run 100 yards or their metric equivalents, and see how they compare. A few freak show ones like boxing and putting the short wouldn't hurt of course. I'd bet it would draw a good audience.
