This isn’t a difficult concept. I don’t understand why people continue to struggle with it.

not sure what you are laughing about. They save all samples. I have seen athletes stripped of medals years later because they were found to be using a PED not known at the time.

Because she failed a drug test for a federally banned substance? Pretty stupid thing to do giving the work put in to reach the only profitable aspect of her sport.

How can these athletes be dumb enough to do so, knowing they will be tested?

On Tuesday, more than six years after the Sochi Games, Russia’s efforts to deny and defy the global sporting community’s findings about its state-backed doping program reached yet another low: The Court of Arbitration for Sport’s antidoping division stripped the Russian biathlete Evgeny Ustyugov of the medals he won at the Vancouver and Sochi Winter Olympics.
In taking back Ustyugov’s gold from Sochi, the court also effectively revoked Russia’s status as the big winner from the Sochi Games, which are now remembered not for Russian performances but for being among the most-tainted competitions in sports history.

It’s like dudes that test positive at the NFL combine. You know you’re going to be tested and you still fail. How freaking stupid can you be? Lay off duh weeeeeeduh for a couple weeks damn.

weed is a banned substance and carries a max ban time up to 4 years, unless the athletes proves she used it outside of the sport and there were no sports performance benefits, that reduces suspension to 3 months, and get it down another month, she has to agree to so on and so forth, it goes on in steps,
Good luck proving this. The Olympics are in 2.5 weeks.

So if you are against the rule, you should probably say so and be done with it. Ethics really isn't gray, but people try and make it so. It's like all the flopping in basketball and soccer. People are constantly trying to take advantage of the rules no matter what they are.
If you just let everyone take anything they wanted, the athletes would take a bunch of shite that would frick them up and then sue the governing body because they didn't ban these substances.

The biggest thing that irks me is that she used an excuse. Why not just say, it's 2021, I smoke weed at night to relax.
