Heroine.
I remember all the Dyestaters who claimed she wouldn't really file suit and that the threat was just a pr ploy.
They were DEAD WRONG.
Of all the athletes in baseball, track, football, etc...who have been accused of steroid use...she's the ONLY ONE to file suit to clear her name.
Notice that Raffy, Sosa or McGwire didn't dare sue Canseco.
So far...she's only guilty of being a poor judge of character in selecting associates.

she should be behind bars, and have her medals made into connecticut state lisence plates.

that's because she's the only one who had her bf's and husbands gives her the steroids so she didn't get them directly all the time like Mont did....and because a guy like Montgomery is stupid and already admitted to using them and then deny's it...otherwise he probably would too.

You seem to hate anything American. If she's guilty, than treat her as the rest are treated. But you haven't liked her from day one. Everything we've heard is hearsay. If that convicts anyone, then we all are guilty of something. You're becoming a gadfly, seriously.
Are you bitter because her PRs are faster than yours? Just curious.

LOL isnt that like someone who sides with your type of thinking? Does that make them guilty of being stupid as well? Guilty by association? :eek:
So far with some of your latest round of posts, you constantly make 78champ look like smartest guy on Dyestat. :D because of what he has done with you..lmfao

You know I have been a Marion Jones fan since she was in HS....Unless I have missed something in the steriod case, because I really haven't been keeping up w/it....IS THERE ANY EVIDENCE THAT SAYS SHE TOOK ANY PERFORMANCE ENHANCING SUPPLEMENTS...or are they just basing it on ONE person's assertion that he gave her steriods...If that is the case...her name should be cleared and case close. It doesn't make since that this lady gets cruicified and bad press because her ex husband and BF have been caught using, I have friends & family members that were/are addicts but that doesn't make me an addict....so if her hubby and BF took roids doesn't make her a roid user. People only say she using steriods because Monty and CJ took them and this Conte who claims he gave some to her but can't produce ANY evidence that says he did...He just trying to save his on AZZ....

Nah, the needles were used for steroids.
I'm just kidding, though I do believe she is guilty. Even though I feel she's guilty, I also feel it's a shame that she's being blackballed without ever being proven guilty. Who cares what people speculate, people have been wrong in the past. This is only making it harder for her to get back on track after all this whole mess if she is afterall innocent.

Then her lawsuit become THAT MUCH MORE VALID and she will prove to everyone TWICE how wrong they were...but have the financial benefits of doing so.
Its funny how people can claim her guilty with NO DAM_N evidence to shake a stick at...and then want someone to 4give all these others...better yet, the entire European assoc who run these meets are a joke because they allow all those KNOWN europeans to still compete in their events...
:rolleyes:

AND NO ONE STILL HASN'T GIVEN A VALID EXCUSE ON HOW THAT GREEK RUNNER WHO WON THE WOMENS 400Mh MADE SUCH A HUUUUUUGE IMPROVEMENT.
