    The IOC = all about money
    FIFA = all about money

    Olympic soccer, because of the big venues the games are played in, sell lots of tickets and make a LOT of money.

    With all that in mind, how do you think this will go down?

    The big issue is all the new designer drugs and the biggest stink over THG....

    The anti-doping agencies are taking a very hard line.

    And ultimately it comes down to power..who really has it...

    true, money drives everything...

    and FIFA and IOC aren't the noblest of institutions...

    at the elitest levels of track and field, there is an incredible percentage 20-30% would be my guess engaged in questionable practices...

    kelli white...calvin harrison dwain chambers some of the noted named...

    FIFA doesn't want it's players subject to the world anti-doping rigourous new testing and penalties...

    one would suspect, football to have it's share of cheaters too...

    what happens......they negotitate and some phoney testing will emerge..
