US sprinter Tyson Gay and Jamaica's former 100m world record holder Asafa Powell have failed drug tests.
Gay, 30, the joint-second fastest man over 100m, was notified by the US Anti-Doping Agency on Friday that his A sample from an out-of-competition test in May had returned a positive.

Powell tested positive for a banned stimulant while competing in June's Jamaican championships.

They must have been hanging out with American Baseball players.

Does any of them know Alex Rodriguez?

There has got to be a way to ditch his contract...

in moments like this, I really agree with sportsmen who say to make drugs in sport legal.

Don't even mention a-rod. I feel bad for the Yankees management. the guy got paid a TON, juices, and yet is still injured, and doesn't do anything to advance the Yankees' position. They are barely any better than the blue jays, behind the RAYS!

I believe that every sports team should write into their contracts with players, that if the player gets caught for cheating, the team has the right to terminate the contact on the spot, no ifs or buts. The Yankees would love to have that opportunity now.

I wonder how many more don't get caught for juicing?
