Default Marion Jones Training to Play in the WNBA
Ok, it is clear that the WNBA needs real headliners to get people interested. I have mixed feelings about Jones playing. What do you think?

Ex-track star Marion Jones wants to play in WNBA (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2009/11/30/sports/s174741S13.DTL&tsp=1 - broken link)

Good Luck to Marion. If Vick can make a comeback after the horrendous acts he perpetrated, why not Marion. As an admirer of T&F athletes, I was disappointed when Marion admitted to using drugs.

She had to admit it or face harsher charges that stemmed for being connected to an illegal ring of check fraud.

She has a pedigree in basketball as well as track. I say she should go for it.

yes i think marion jones should keep doing sports. its seems to be what she loves. I loved how she sayed so strong through it all after they tried to take her down with her use of steroids she still didn't let that affect her sports career . I give her a lot of credit for speaking to the world and saying sorry and getting back up and moving on. who doesnt make mistakes? it wasn't just the steroids that built her up she worked hard for what she wanted. I think she is a strong woman

Good Luck Marion! If a man can fall flat and come back. Then, why not her.

OK, as long as they give her weekly drug testing for HGH, steroids, and any other performance enhancing drugs. Once a cheater, always a cheater.
