    Agent: Rocket considering Olympics

    ORLANDO, Fla. -- Roger Clemens may not play in the Major Leagues next season, but that doesn't mean he isn't going to play baseball.

    If the Rocket is able to do this, he can remind the rest of the world what American muscle is really made of.

    Steroids.

    Aren't the Olympics tougher on roids than the MLB is?

    The fight against doping is a top priority for the IOC. The IOC is driving a zero tolerance policy, activating this with stringent means at the Olympic Games and Disciplinary Commissions set up to carry out investigations when necessary. They will do whatever they have to in order to keep doping to a minimum.
    (from their website)

    That's their policy, if you will. They seem tougher than MLB does, but I couldn't find anything saying exactly what they do when they find out that an athlete was doping. On second thought, just look up Marion Jones. That's pretty much all you need to know.
