This blog really started to get whatever traction it currently has when I wrote about my displeasure with a New York Times article whose presentation - not content, mind you - compared Bannister's alleged use of performance enhancing drugs with that of Marion Jones.
I just wanted to note that the recent press regarding Marion Jones' malfeasances is making those comparisons - however diluted by caveat - horribly inappropriate.
I'll say it again: Marion Jones is a disgrace to her sport and country while Sir Roger is exactly the opposite.
I did enjoy this somewhat dated piece in the New York Times about Dr. Bannister's accomplishment.
