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
I don't buy "addict" either. That label seems to fall into the trying to excuse her behavior category. She looks like an angel, but she is more likely a fraud and a cheater. Ugly words, but still applicable. Maybe there's a shrink who will explain why that's a new legal defense.
Again, I did not call her an addict and I did not attempt to excuse her behavior. I simply said that the thrill of winning an Olympic gold medal could easily cause somebody to lose touch with the reality that what they are doing is cheating and compared that thrill with getting high.
