Question

Which act is lower - attacking the referee or doping ?

Answer 1

Doping, because you are cheating the system for any possible advantage in your favor, no matter how small.  

The kicking of the ref isn't commendable, but I too think that 1 minute of injury timeout time is way too short.

Answer 2

Doping :)

Answer 3

Doping cause the odds are the been doing it more then once and attacking the referee was a bad idea it was a moment fit of rage

Answer 4

Both actions are not in the spirit of competition!

Answer 5

I think Doping, You cheat yourself and everyone else.

Attacking a ref isn't acceptable behavior but it's far from 'cheating' which is just a sheer disregard for every competitor and everyone involved. Doping is more comparable to something like state sponsored falsification of documents in order to get underage athletes into the games. which is also cheating and extreme lack of respect to the other Athletes. But is probably somewhat worse when you realize an entire countries government had to be involved. (I'm not talking about this year, since nothing has been been proven on that, I'm talking about the proven case of 14 year old girl who won a gymnastics medal in 2004 for China and admitted later to being only 14 at the time.)

Answer 6

i thought that dude that attacked the ref was kinda funny.. hella random

Answer 7

Without question ~ attacking the referee.

Doping isn't right, but at least the reasons for doing it are understandable. Attacking a referee shows the highest disregard for the rules as well as the lowest form of self-control.

Answer 8

Attacking the referee...definitely...

This is a crime against someone else. Doping is basically a crime against yourself, using illegal drugs to enhance your performance.

Answer 9

doping

Answer 10

Doping.  An athlete who dopes is cheating all of his competitors who've worked all of their lives for a chance at a medal.  Even if the doper is found out later, he/she has cheated the legitimate winner of the honor of standing on the top podium while the country's anthem is being played.  

The taekwondo guy attacking the ref didn't affect any of the other athletes' chances.
