Disgraced U.S. sprinter Marion Jones told talk show host Oprah Winfrey in an interview aired on Wednesday she will never compete again, but feels she would have won five Olympic medals even without an illegal drug. And personally having known Marion in college, I have to say that whether or not she is telling the truth, I am behind her. -dustin

And gus, here’s my comment from the website that I left. I decided to post it here as well:
Marion was a friend of mine in college. I remember when she played for UNC’s championship women’s basketball team and was just thinking about her chances at running. We were all behind her then. I am still behind her now.
I always thought the world of Marion and I STILL DO NOW! No matter what she has done in the past, I am looking forward to what she does in the future. Folks, none of us are without shameful things we have done. It’s just that ours are not broadcast for the world to see. Marion, good luck with the rest of your life. Miss ya’ look me up some time!
Just like I said back then, I still think you are the fastest woman in the world!
Love ya’ Marion!
