Top athletes take anything they can to get an edge

Double espresso before sprinting? Protein powder to build muscle? Ginseng tea? Up Your Gas? Turtle blood? Sleep in an oxygen tent?

The margins are so fine at the top that they do anything to get a fractional advantage and I have no problem with that at all. If it's legal they can take it and that's "right" (whatever that means in this context) as well as legal. Once it's banned, they can't.
