...for Babikin(sorry for the spelling). That might increase his chances through the special committee. Although the more athletes in the olympics -the better for israeli athletics, I would like to remind you all that he was caught on drugs around a decade ago. In Britain he would have been disqualified for life from olympic representation; I wish that was the situation in israel as well. I could just wonder if this time he was checked after his throws, or during preparation for this meet (mind you-this was not a pre set goal competition) and whether the Israeli drugs committee has the routine to detect all detectable drugs. Now before all of you reply angrily, just stop for a sec to think what kind of sport you wish athletics to be. Have a nice evening, and congrats. to all those who achieved such great results tonight.(Naor, Svetlana,Yochay , Dasha etc.
