How about the "passports" of the underage female gymnastics 
competitors?  Using 14 year olds when the rules say 16 is no less 
cheating than doping is.  Nothing against those kids, they did a 
beautiful performance and deserved to win, however I find it very wrong 
that fake documents were created to show the girls as older just so they 
can win in the event.
