Doper.


Alex Schwazer
Well he was an Olympic race walker and I can’t stand the fact that after he was caught he still managed to be a bad person and not even feel guilty for doing it. He was an Olympian, a “role model” for kids everywhere, someone trustworthy and reliable but what did he do? He deceived everyone and used illegal substances to win. It’s immeasurable of how much disappointment and shame he brought upon himself. He needs to grow up and learn that doing drugs to win, or in general is not okay. You need to be an honorable and respectable person and do what is right to succeed not cheat your way to succeed, what does that say about you?

CTW: Olympic Cheater


CTW: Olympic Cheater
Well this story was about Marion Jones an Olympic athlete who was famed and took pride in being an Olympian. After she won a medal at the Olympics it was thought she cheated after reviewing tests she was stripped of her medals, she was caught cheating. Red handed and yet she still denied it, how could she possibly do that? Not because she was a bad person, but yet she wanted to win so bad she would take extreme measures instead of just training and getting better herself she turned to drugs. Choosing the wrong at its prime.
