yeah i read that too but this wasn't an official test or anything. if they ban him for this picture, they would appeal it and win.

he will be the biggest draw again at the next olympics. in 4 years, no one will remember this.

“he is a high functioning addict my hat is off to him”

We have one picture of him pulling a bong hit and already we’re calling him an addict?

So typical of a lib idiot. Lie, deny, deflect, erect.

[cajungirl]

He admitted doing it.

Still, it's an example of an Olympian who couldn't handle the pressures after Olympic life.

Bruce Kimball, Bill Johnson.........

i failed to see the word “marijuana” anywhere in his apologetic press release. you don’t think he’s got 10 lawyers working on this? he can say that he was talking about anything. he admitted to nothing specific as far as i can tell.
