Not heard of these before, but I suppose it was inevitable - although, the amount being paid to the swimmer in this story is concerning on many levels.

My bad.
This is something I jokingly suggested to my mates many years ago, probably at the time of the infamous Ben Johnson Olympic 100m final in 1988. Basically rename it the Steroid Games when it all becomes a level playing field (albeit an extended one for the javelin throwers).
I think it makes sense, in many sports few are completely clean from the point of view they have never taken anything.
This could also be the best bet for the magic genie scenario.
