Cheating in sports..

I have but it was an accident - well at first - lol. I threw shot put in high school track. We had a shot put that looked like the regulation size but was in fact two pounds lighter. During a meet I picked up the wrong shot put and threw it. I threw it around 55 feet and knew something was wrong since my previous best was around 45 or so. I told the shotput/discus coach and we scooped up the wrong shotput/switched it out with a proper one. lol. We didn't tell anyone about it. What's worse is I had the top shot put distance in my entire area with my illegitimate throw and had the top spot at the sectionals. I refused to compete knowing I cheated and regardless I would've placed close to last against people who were really throwing low 50's.

Not that I can remember, but I'm sure I have. I just can't recall any specific time
I have cheated lots. As we say, its not cheating if you dont get caught. Ive spent most of my life competing in motorsports of some kind. 20 years ago i raced motocross professionally for 2.5 years. My career was plagued with injuries and finally ended with a broken back. But i raced motorcycles with motors that had more displacement than allowed. Because the races are a combination of heats (motos), i had friends finish races for me because of injuries. I had to pick someone of similar size, then they would wear all my gear, and run the second half of rhe race for me. Ive used illegal fuels. Ive raced cars that were under weight. Ive also raced drag bikes made from cro-moly tubing that had a wall thickness lesser than the rules allow. The tech inspectors have an ultrasonic gun that they use to verify that the tubing is the correct thickness. But filling the tubing with expandable foam tricks these devices into thinking the tubing is thicker than it really is. We obviously did this to save weight.
Ive also raced some 24 hour mountain bike races. The rules state that you are not allowed to get help from others to repair things like flat tires. In a race the previous year, we had so many problems with flats, that the next year we carried 2 way radios. I used the radio to have a team mate meet me on the trail with a spare wheel. The advantage is huge. It takes seconds to change a wheel. It takes minutest to change an inner tube.
I dont know how to answer your question, maybe i cheated a little. I dont call it cheating, i call it competing

No.
However, as a bettor, if I could, I certainly would. I've recently been trying to figure out NFL sport betting since it seems everyone in my office is making a killing every NFL season. If I could get some inside info or perhaps persuade a Seattle Seahawk referee to fix a game for me I would take full advantage of the opportunity...everytime!

Now don't blame a Seahawk and follow the circus nair.. Upon further review the ruling on the field stands.. Touchdown Seahawks!

I made not such claim against a Seahawk. I was referring to a Seahawk-friendly referee. Case closed!
