    This is a bit sad. About 90% of the time drug busts don't come as a shock to me but I actually thought VCB was clean. my 2 big defences when giving benefit of the doubt (outstanding junior, and has been consistent for a long time) have been thrown out the window and that's something which is a bit sobering.

    alot Of jamaican athletes are failing. Steve mullings 100m. yohan Blake failed a test s few years back. There is probably alot of doping gong on in Jamaica. Athletes will do what it takes to earn some money.IAAF protecting the sport

    Mod: Gentle reminder than speculation is banned under the charter rules. Stick to those found guilty rather than speculating who else might be
