I'm somewhat interested in why Carl would've done Ben so wrong.

Scorned lover??

There's some validity to the spiked drink theory, because he tested positive for a roid he didn't like & rarely used, Winstrol, and because his system should've cleared any dosage prior to the test:

Ben Johnson dramatically alleged superstar Carl Lewis was "involved" in a conspiracy to sabotage the Canadian's drug sample and bring on the biggest scandal in Olympic history. Johnson, who lost the 100m gold medal and world record after failing a drug test at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, said it had taken 18 years but he now knows who spiked his drink. "I have the information on how it was done and why it was done this way and who was behind it," Johnson said yesterday.Asked whether Lewis had anything to do with the alleged sabotage, Johnson replied: "I won't say too much but . . . he's involved."

"I've been speaking to my lawyer and he wants to keep it as low (key) as possible until next June. We're trying to get some information, try to get that guy (a US football player) to speak.''

Guys who spend time reading the thread & posting.

It's fairly irrelevant given the time lapse but would be interesting to know considering that it was by far the first high-profile steroid case; all the other baseball scandals that followed were preceeded by it. And if true, it would further compromise whatever legacy Lewis left in track & field, which is something.

Is Johnson's time still the fastest in history?

A couple of guys exceeded it by 2/100ths of a second 1-2 years ago, one of whom was later found to be using.

No, it not. I forgot the time, but they have constantly sped up the tracks (I believe in an effort to erase Ben's time) and I believe that his time has been eclipse. I don't follow track and field like i use to.

Typical Canadian. Ben Johnson can go phuck himself. Maybe he should have brought this up 18 years ago, when someone gave a fuck. F Ben Johnson and all canadian dicklickers.

Very 1984; no wonder Johnson hated him.

Wasn't this a pretty huge factor as to why the US banned steroids? Getting beat by Canada.

In reality it was getting beaten by Jamaica, who always have the best sprinters besides the US.

Steroids were banned after the Johnson debacle publicized steroids for the first time. NFL took some major steps, after which the players seemed to come down in size if not weight.

I sold Ben Johnson his Winstrol. I told him to be careful. Damn metabolites!!

Too bad the current canadians can't even carry the water bottles of today's americans, the next generation, my generation, will be better though.
