Wow. So I finally read the actual arbitration report, and I busted out laughing when I saw the picture of the supplement that he took. I thought that he was claiming that he took a supplement that he didn't realize contained DHEA.

Yeah, he just said he can train, but as far as I know it cannot be at any RTC or any other entity affiliated with USAW. I’m sure it means he’ll be training at a place like Bo’s gym . I don’t know what limits to partners he has which is the key in the end - edit - but I see some others addressed the partner issue on page 1.

He’s a dumbass at the very least and is now paying for that.

Yeah. Part of my blood pressure meds (HCTZ) makes the news every now and then when an athlete pops for it as it masks other forbidden fruits. Since the closest I have ever been to being an elite athlete was being able to spell 'elite athlete,' it has never been an issue for me.

I'm willing to give an athlete the benefit of the doubt for the first offense, which for Brooks was allegedly misfiled paperwork. However, I'm a very hard sell for a second pass. Any reasonable person would think that an athlete would know the rules and how to abide by them. You would think that someone who had already run afoul once would be even more vigilant. Even if Aaron's account of events are 110% accurate, it was still a clear violation of rules that he knew about.
You're too hard on yourself. You don't need to take the mat here to be an elite athlete, look at SlipperyPete.

After watching Olympic Curling, I may even be one.
