They let Carl Lewis skate on a failed test in 88. They never had any credibility.They now have zero credibility..... I'm talking ZERO
The gave floyd a retroactive TUE for using an illegal IV too. A little late for a TUE after you already got caughtThey let Carl Lewis skate on a failed test in 88. They never had any credibility.
To make sure I’m clear, this is not saying he doesn’t have it in his system, rather it came from a contaminated supplement and the concentration is at such a low level that it could not be considered performance enhancing. Does that sum it up accurately?
I thought the lab obtained a supplement sample to test independently, I didn't know it was just the fighters turning over wtv they had.A significant number of test failures get this defense even though that's not the rules originally.
Comically, all you have to do is cheat and taint your own supplement. Put a few tainted pills aside and when you get caught, turn them in.
If the system works as claimed they use the lot number from the turned in supplement and run it against other samples from the same lot.A significant number of test failures get this defense even though that's not the rules originally.

Presumably they should go get batch samples. Some might provide them and usada probably has some database. But they absolutely test the fighters supplements as they have publicly stated the specific number of tainted pills that a fighter had in their possession in the past.I thought the lab obtained a supplement sample to test independently, I didn't know it was just the fighters turning over wtv they had.
BAHAHAHAHAHA
Usada has lot samples from how many supplements on standby? How many organic, vegan, plant-based daily multivitamins that were contaminated with LGD-4033??If the system works as claimed they use the lot number from the turned in supplement and run it against other samples from the same lot.

Sure pal .. SURESpeed of result is dubious.
Until I see them taking the supplement company to court, it's dubious.
Sure pal .. SURE
Jesus some people are blind
Honestly no I do not believe he doped .But do you think Nate doped then?
Nate diaz is clean but at the same time I believe 90% of athletes are on something illegal .
Not only that...I think most people are leaning this way
There's a lot of truth to that.
I know folks think he’s an idiot but I think he’s smarter than most are willing to admit. Not saying he planned it all out perfectly but it certainly did work out that way this time around.There's a lot of truth to that.
The UFC and usada would have notified Nate and his job would be to keep quiet while they help find ways to get him exonerated. Nothing public until the investigation is done.
The issue there is that he could go and fight UFC would make their money and if usada testing practices (whatever they are because they are increasingly opaque) Don't clear him Nate becomes the only loser. Flights have already happened money is already made and they gets a reputation hit.
Nate coming out and saying suck it, figured out or we all lose is some masterful game theory if he's innocent. But it's also pretty masterful if somebody is guilty.
Since positive tests are no longer inherently guilty tests, how far can this push the grey area of usada?
Maybe a lot, potentially zero.Usada has lot samples from how many supplements on standby?
If you're a supplement manufacturer it isn't exactly in your best interest to sell tainted supplements. In some cases it could potentially bankrupt your business. So yeah, they probably would try to clear their name if given the opportunity. That being said, I don't know whether or not USADA actually publishes the name of the supplement makers when they find them to be tainted.Contact the manufacturer who just happens to have AND GIVES samples to any testing body that calls and then publicly notifies everyone the company has tainted goods?
They won't be irrelevant as long as they have power over fighters careers.Nate "Pictograms" Diaz!
LOL @ this desperate shitshow.
USADA is becoming slowly irrelevant...
From what has been released, it sounds like it was cleared up from the get go, but Nate forced them to say something about it publicly before he'd leave.How convenient that this got cleared up in time for nate to catch a plane to NY
Are you sure this is the case? USADA, in the past, has referenced obtaining sealed bottles of supplements off the shelf for testing.A significant number of test failures get this defense even though that's not the rules originally.
