Dwain Chambers' appeal has been rejected. Great news for honest athletes, plus the guy who finished 4th in the trials, as he'll now get the experience of an Olympic Games.

Couldn't believe one of the reason Chambers' lawyer gave to allow him to go was because he had a chance of a podium finish.

a) The law shouldn't be based on ability, but what's fair
b) He has absolutely no chance of a medal and would have struggled to make the final IMO.

Cheats out.
