During the Olympics there was a lot of talk about chaos in US Track and Field.

It's my understanding that the drug testing methods used in the Olympics are no joke. None of the Jamaican's tested positive. That's why I find these comments bizarre.

I remember reading....where one of the swimmers was saying they had to let the US Olympic Committee or the US Swimming Association know where they could be found any day, any time at any given moment for a random drug test. If they couldn't be found, that was grounds for disqualification. Amazing! But...in light of the fact that Jamaica doesn't do random drug testing.....I find the questions a bit...appropriate. (And I stress the "a bit" part) But....I would focus more on Jamaica's testing schedule rather than pinpointing a specific athelete that......broke my record
