Just want to gauge perception for my own interests here. I am posting a poll to ask your opinion of the JH saga.

I don't think so - I thought option 2, "Has accidentally used the banned substance, or was victim of a contaminated substance?" encompasses a lot of possibilities. When A and B samples come back positive from a drug test, there's evidence that it was in her body. If you believe it was an accident, then vote option 2.
We have to stop looking at USA-Swimming through rose-colored goggles. We'd be ready to hang a foreign swimmer on this much evidence, why do we so vehemently go to the opposite end of the spectrum for an American swimmer? We're ready to fight the doping agencies, blame test procedures, find fault with the supplement manufacturers, all the while ignoring the facts of the case. Jessica Hardy, an American swimmer, tested positive under USADA doping control procedures at the Olympic Trials.
