Let's say the IAAF throws out all world records set
before 2000.
Is an exception made if the record-setter is deceased?
Whether they're deceased or not is totally irrelevant to
the question of whether their records are credible or not.
I don't know why there's more sympathy for people after
they die. Like they're martyrs or something.
Maybe you feel sorry for them because they're no longer
here to defend themselves?
Flo-Jo had plenty of years to reveal anything she wanted
to reveal- I don't think if she were alive anything would
be different. What she said on the topic is documented,
and boils down to a single word- denial.
BTW- anything we say on this list has absolutely no
bearing on how she 'rests'.
