    Marion Jones’ relay teammates will learn by Dec. 18 whether they can keep their medals from the 2000 Sydney Olympics. The IOC had hoped the Court of Arbitration for Sport would rule this month. But the CAS postponed the decision for another two months.

    How is this even a question? Jones ran the final. Of course, they should be stripped. Is there an argument I'm not seeing here?

    I wouldn't want the medal if it were me.

    I'd secretly keep mine, but would tell the IOC I had angrily thrown it into the Ohio River after finding out about Marion Jones' steroid use...
