Johnson’s Admission Might Encourage Use
The Ben Johnson steroid hearings in Canada could turn out to be a Pandora’s box.
Johnson now admits usage over the years and indicates that he wishes to run again without using drugs.
Doesn’t the possibility of his losing present a serious problem?
Will it not be an indication to others that drugs did play a significant role in his success and thus encourage the very usage he is hoping to help correct?
