Unbelievable

[blue rebel]

I wouldn't believe a second the idea with the heart condition.. considering the trainings and effort you have to put to compete at such level... i am kind of afraid she will be given as example.. as it was an entire brand build around her... she might be band from tennis for good

She has acute angina no sorry I meant a cute vagina.

[lildick]

I'd still give her one though

She can bat my balls anytime. Lol.

[robbie9]

i reckon she will only get a 9 month ban. Surprised that nike did that as they stood by Tiger Woods.

i don't think she ever needs to earn a penny again , she made 23million last year.

There is no doubt where his sympathies lie. Not with Maria.
I am not agreeing or disagreeing with him, but it is a well-written piece

She confronted it head on because there was no where to hide, it was an attempt at damage limitation plain and simple,
she came out and stood at the podium all contrite and remorseful hoping that her sad beautiful face would gain her some sympathy.
To top it all off the poor dear had to look at ugly carpet, she be ok if the hotel dont sue her aswell for dissing their premises.
It really stretches belief to expect us to believe that with the team of specalists , dieticians ,trainers coaches around her that nobody
would be on top of examining the revised list of banned substances which is reviewed every january.
She lives in Florida and im sure she has other doctors besides this good old family GP back in Russia that perscribed this drug for her
or perhaps she hops on a plane to Russia every time she needs to see a doctor., at the very least any other doctor should be aware of what medication she
was taking.
Also seeing as this drug is not licensed in the US where was she obtaining it and if she was bringing it into the country is it legal to do that
I fear Miss Sharapova has alot of questions to answer but her reputation is forever tarnished and the economic fallout is going to be huge
and outside of endorsments will probably affect her other buisness as well.
Whatever way the dice rolls now she will always be remembered from now on first of all for being a drug cheat

As long as you don't use Viagra. We will need a urine sample when you are finished.

I wouldn't say there would be much of a problem keeping it hard with her around
