Just around the bend!

By Mike Cunningham On July 31st, 2012

When you read of the incredible swimming feat of this sixteen year-old in swimming faster than the leading man in a similar event, you can understand the cautious statement from this senior American swimming expert, when using the word ‘Unbelievable’!

All I am going to say on this particular topic is that maybe, just maybe, the Chinese chemists are better that most of the Western chemists.

But if they find her performance ‘unbelievable’, what the hell are they going to say when ‘IT’ comes steaming around the last track curve ahead of all the other competitors?

  1. Indeed. Reminds us of another young lady closer to home

  2. how come when Michael Phelps wins its because of superior genes but when a commie does its because of superior chemistry?

  3. EP -

    Well it wouldn’t be out of keeping for the commie contingent to dope their athletes up to the eyeballs.

    Since the Chinese girl is 16, has a torso like a brick wall and swam faster than any man the other evening, I’d suggest that chemistry might be involved. Fact is as well, Chinese swimmers have spent the last 20 years being banned.

    If so, she will join an infamous shoal of Chinese swimmers dating back to the 1994 World Aquatic championships in Rome, when their performance in winning 12 of the 16 gold medals available was attributed by state officials to ingesting an ‘ancient brew’ of toad-skin and bird’s nests.

    Not long afterwards, at the Asian Games, 11 of their number tested positive for a banned testosterone and China was stripped of nine of its 23 golds.

    Further scandals followed at regular intervals throughout the Nineties and 2000s, including the discovery, in 1998, of 13 vials of a human growth hormone – enough to supply the entire team – in the kitbag of a female Chinese swimmer during a routine search at Sydney airport.”

    East Germany has risen! With China’s record, they don’t deserve the benefit of the doubt.

  4. How long before Chemistry becomes an Olympic event?

    And why not? – it certainly fulfils the part in the Olympic oath about the importance of ‘taking part’ being above winning, and in tha respect is probably less hypocritical than most current events.

  5. I believe more than a few athletes(Canadians among them)have been busted for superior chemistry

  6. No such comments on the other 15 year old swimmer to win a gold – Ruta Meilutyte won the gold medal in the 100-meter women’s breaststroke Monday.
