How many ingredients do you think are in the prescription? It's not a box of Oreos with 90 ingredients. It's one active ingredient.
What are she and her team so busy doing every second of every day that they can't type it in?
There is ZERO excuse and any athlete saying they didn't know is lying. At best they are so unbelievably unprofessional that they have no business competing at this level. What else are they taking "without knowing"?
lol @ "she forwarded the prohibited list to her doctor". How about just look on the list yourself, which is alphabetized, and see that what he is prescribing is on it?
The most bullshit story in the history of bullshit stories.
Maybe if you mean for this thread to be about Cris Cyborg you should have included it in the thread title or even your first post. I guess we've all now gathered that IS what (who) this thread about since she's just now immediately in the news. That's her problem to deal with. I'm not an advocate or hers, nor do I damn her.
I'm also not talking about just a single perscription.
Imagine wanting to take this supplement, not knowing english very well, and having to check if it's ok:
You guys can all go burn Cyborg at the stake if it pleases you. Knock yourself out. I have no deslire to defend her. I just disagree with you saying "any athlete that says they don't know is a liar" when it can easily be missed due to mistakes, especially language barrier.
NO, that should not be a valid excuse for a positive test
No, that does not excuse an athlete from taking a banned substance
Yes, it might possibly explain that they are not liars.
You are comparing a supplement to a prescription drug. Prescription drugs don't have a laundry list of substances, they are typically ONE substance.
Even in your example, what is that, 90 seconds of looking on the prohibited list to see which of those are banned or not? Gee I guess these guys and their managers and coaches are all so busy every minute of every day that they can't do that. Gotta leave time to call people out on Twitter and troll on the UG.
As for the language issue, give me a break. First, Cyborg speaks English and so does Ray. Second, one click for "other languages", one click for "Portuguese", and there is the prohibited list.
Please stop making excuses for this nonsense. No one is that lazy or that stupid when there are millions of dollars on the line. They are trying to get away with using as much as they can and then pleading ignorance to reduce their sentence and keep their careers alive.
