Marion Lois Jones, also known as Marion Jones-Thompson (born October 12, 1975 in Los Angeles, California), is a former American track and field athlete of Belizean descent. She won five medals at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia but has since been stripped of every medal dating back to September 2000 after admitting that she took performance enhancing drugs.
In October 2007, Jones admitted to having taken steroids before the Sydney 2000 Summer Olympics and acknowledged that she had, in fact, lied when she previously denied steroid use in statements to the press, to various sports agencies, and–most significantly–to two grand juries, one impaneled to investigate the BALCO “designer steroid” ring, and the other impaneled to investigate a check fraud ring involving many of the same parties from the BALCO case.

Russian President Vladimir Putin criticised sports officials on Tuesday for attracting sportsmen from abroad instead of grooming homegrown champions.
“Looking at our teams, one cannot immediately understand whether those are ours, or a team from Africa,” he said.
“The result is well known. There is no one to play in our national teams,” he told a meeting of Russia’s Sports Council.
Putin wants to revive the past glory of Russian teams, who dominated in many disciplines, and blamed club managers for the decline in sports.
“Instead of preparing young people, breeding our own national cadres they spend millions of dollars hiring foreign players,” Putin told the Council meeting, tasked with planning for the 2014 Winter Olympics in the Black Sea resort of Sochi.
Apart from hosting the Olympics, Sochi is Putin’s favourite holiday venue. The winning bid earlier this summer has fuelled a wave of patriotism in Russia and was one of the high points of his eight-year presidency.

Is it an African team? No. This is the French team full of negroes. Couldn’t the real French people play football? Why did they need all those negroes in their team? The answer is simple: this is for pure propaganda. They want to make stars and VIPs out of non whites, actors and singers, so the white people can praise them and to promote a multiculty sick society.
The Spanish fans made fun of French team and their coach Raymond Domenech said: “When I arrived with the bus there were fans making monkey chants.”
