According to one website, $100 in 1977 was worth $406.40 in 2016. Still
not worth it to risk a job and possible jail time.

I will never understand why folks risk their career for small dollar amounts.
While $100 was a
lot more in 1977 than now (maybe not?), still, it is a paltry sum compared to
one's career. WHY?
No doubt, there must have been a whistle-blower.

Equally, why do guys cheat during a contest? For what? These are not a
life-altering events.
I just can't help but think back to the recent log-padding that caused a
multi-year, retro DQ and
a multi-year ban. WHY? Was it worth it?
