Btw, I believe that the courts have already awarded the swimmer in question damages.
You are correct, LindsayNB. He won $578,635 in a judgment against Ultimate Nutrition. And it was vitamins that were the culprit. See www.usatoday.com/.../2005-05-13-swimmer_x.htm
As to the argument that Kicker should have known he was taking a risk when he swallowed the vitamins, he knows that now:
He said he will return to competition without supplements. "You can't be sure what you're buying. To me it's not worth it," he said.
