Dwain will always have the "cheat" label and has really put a complete stop on his professional career. As long as he's not cheating which he can prove and has served a reasonable ban time then why shouldn't he race?

I wonder how many professional footballers would be left in the game if everyone who took a recreational drug at any time was perm banned??
Well money has ruined football so no I expect them to have lower standards. I did and still do expect the Olympics have the highest standards of all.
However the minute they removed amateur status as a requirement was the time they introduced big money into the equation.
