Default Tim Montgomery\'s retirement...

In case you don't know, Tim Montgomery, former world record holder in the 100 meters, retired today after being suspended for 2 years for doping.

Okay, a couple things.

1) Montgomery never tested positive.
2) He now has to give back all his winnings since 2002, which may be up to $1 million dollars.

Now, I'm against track and field athletes using steroids and other illegal performance enhancing drugs for obvious reasons. But doesn't something like this almost do more harm than good for the sport?

I hope that the evidence was pretty damn overwhelming.
