Swimming-Brazil's world champ Cielo tests positive, escapes

I'm not naive enough to believe that PEDs aren't in our sports, but it always sucks when things like this pop up ... www.reuters.com/.../swimming-brazil-doping-idUSLDE76100420110702. Say it ain't so, Cesar.

    I'm not thrilled by the CAS' action on Cielo, but it should be noted that Cielo has effectively used up his free pass in the matter. CAS did uphold FINA's appeal against Vinicus Waked- so it's one year (and consequently no Olympics) for a second offense, even if it is allegedly inadvertent.
