I think if you hang around with someone of this kind of reputation you're going to have to expect to be targeted and tested. |
I think it's good for sports generally. Finally, everybody's serious about this. Cheating and doping is one-tenth of 1 percent accident and 99.9 percent deliberate, and so we're going to catch you if you're doing it and we're going to work together if you're doing it. |
I think one is right to say some of these records are pretty suspect, |
I think that is errant nonsense, as is the claim that 'Oh well, if we let management put in these requirements it is a downward slide and pretty soon labor will have no strength,' |
I think the IOC is trying to make this point, you may have had these laws when you got the games, but you promised to use our rules during the games, and that was a commitment of the Italian government, ... We're here now, it's almost 2006 and we want you to live up to your part of the deal. |
I think we are going to have another look (after the Games). It is easier to deal with it as a health problem than doping problem. They (FIS) might be afraid that they are not able to prove that they were drugged. |
I think we should regard that as a perverse result in our event during the Sydney Games. |
I think what emerged from all this is that some of the members hadn't thought carefully about the impact. It's a worse policy to have made a mistake and refuse to reconsider it. |
I thought about sanctioning myself and decided against it, |

I was disappointed that more members thought Kim would have been better than I would. |
I was simply defending my profession and my passion. |
I would be inclined to say 'if you are not willing to cooperate and follow the rules of your international federation you are not the right track and field association to be part of the USOC', |
I would be inclined to say 'if you are not willing to cooperate and follow the rules of your international federation you are not the right track and field association to be part of the USOC'. |
I would certainly have tried to settle this sooner than two days before the start of the Games. |
