Also, Poin, I see what your poll question is getting at, but where was the record broken? And was the wind just below limits, etc.
I only ask this because of Bob Beamon in 1968 in the long jump. He didn't break the record, he destroyed it by a couple of feet, and the judges had to get out a ruler because their tapes didn't go that long. No one ever accused him of being dirty.

The record was broken, first, in the mountains of Indianapolis, and then again, I believe, in Seoul.
Having watched every race she ran that year, I can tell you that there weren't four people in the press box who didn't think she was juicing. And, if we're applying the Caminiti-Alzado-Benoit Standard Of proof, then her death at an early age has to be factored in. Plus, there were rumors around Bob Kersee -- Jackie Joyner's husband, Al's brother-in-law, and FloJo's coach.
Sounds good enough to run with, according to the Bonds Rules anyway.

I thought the rumors were around Al Joyner -- FloJo's husband and coach -- not Bobby Kersee?

Fair enough, but didn't Caminiti admit to his steroid use before he died?

Her 100m record was recorded in Indianapolis at the Trials.

She broke the 200m wr at the Seoul semis, and again in the final.

Do you think she was a clean athlete?

Yes. Her .49 second improvement in the 100 at 28 years old was a clean athletic miracle

No. She was dirty as a dog
