Ben Johnson (Track) 5

This guy and his coaches and handler's and national track officials disgraced themselves and everyone in sight, including their mailman.

Winning the 100 metres at the Seoul Olympics in world record time, Johnson looked like a freak of nature. Turned out he was. He had so many steroids and other drugs in him his urine virtually melted the test cup. In this he was the front man for a conspiracy that included his coaches and physicians, as well as key figures in the Canadian Olympic committee who had forgotten to test him on earlier occasions.

Ben got caught. Americans didn't until recently, now they are. Justice will be served when the steroid soaked Chinese humilate the steroid soaked Americans in the next Olympics while the rest of the world pays attention to the real athletes.

He didn't disgrace his sport, rather his country. If he was stupid enough to use steriods that the tests COULD pick up, he deserves to get it taken away. Its not that he used steriods, I think many in the olympics use steriods, its that he used steriods that the ancient anti-drug tests could pick up. But, after Donovan Bailey and Brunny Seron (sp??), I think the legacy of Ben Johnson was partly put to rest. Please, even though he eventually got the medal stripped away, I still love watching the old tapes of how Carl Lewis reacted after losing, and the shock on his face. That was classic and priceless!
