Title: Chariots of LSD

"Edwards' positive test means that the every athlete on the podium in that World 200m has now failed a dope test."

I'm not a big fan of athletics or owt, but this is just getting silly - there's been a load of these cases lately, especially in the US - how come no-one ever caught this before?

World 100m champion Torri Edwards may miss the Olympics after testing positive for the banned stimulant nikethamide in April.

Should have gone for the Adidas sponsorship instead I guess. :lol:

[color=66ff00]In an almost completely unrelated matter did you know that when they released the French version of 'Chariots of Fire' they utterly failed to translate the title correctly?  

The good people of France were subjected to an English athletics movie entitled 'Shopping trolleys of fire'.

Bloody brilliant. :D
