From what i have heard, from several credible sources, someone on the us women's team tested positive. As of now only the persons family, roommate, and usa swimming know, but im sure it will begin to leak out. Nothing matters though until we get results of the B test.. which could be a few days or even weeks. Not sure when the test was taken, but probably trials. I will try to post more information when I get it, but if anyone could confirm or post what they know, im sure it would be appreciated

IF she is found guilty:
Drag her ass and whomever helped her in this crime off to jail in chains and publish the photo's in every paper and at every swim club in the country. Shame on her and anyone who defends this BS....she's 21, she's an adult and she wanted to win at all costs. She basically said screw you to all of her teammates and everyone in sport who plays by the rules...there goes any chance the 400 medley relay had against the Aussies.
Two thumbs up to this.
Also - her LIFE is not ruined. Her swimming career is ruined. She can go back to school, get a degree, and continue with a more normal adult life. She just won't be a 2008 Olympic swimmer nor medalist.
99% of the possible employers she might interview with a few years from now won't know who she is. No one in a non-athletic industry will ask "did you ever test positive for a performance enhancing drug."
