Soon all this unhappiness will be outshouted by the welcome advent of actual competition. Can Katarina Witt come back from six years of taking it easy on the ice-show circuit? Is Bonnie Blair still the fastest woman on earth, or at least the fastest three inches above it? Does anything remain of Alberto Tomba but the boasting? These are sporting questions to be resolved on the rink or slope, not in a courtroom or hospital operating theater.

Despite Gillooly's guilty plea to one count of racketeering in exchange for a recommended two-year prison sentence and a $100,000 fine, his statements alone offered no firm basis to indict Harding in the pre-assault conspiracy...
