She found 3 Burrito trucks with 10 miles of the Nike campus that all offered pig offal burritos. If only she'd read the LRC forums, she's have known which one it was (the 3rd one in the article).
Who was that athlete years ago that got busted for steroids? His defense was that he ate pork that was contaminated with steroids. This athlete happened to have a pig as a pet. He injected the pig with steroids and he said that he would test positive after he cooked and ate his pig. He ate his pet pig but did not test positive afterward. I felt so sorry for the pig.
How do you know which truck it was? Last i had seen, everyone was just wildly speculating
so they weigh the burrito. but dont seperate the meat out of it and weigh just the meat?

This actually happened lol?

That was odd.
The burrito is innocent, Shelby is guilty.
But they didn’t test the meat for nandrolone levels or test themselves after eating it so this is a giant nothing burger.
This is all going to look especially stupid if the second nandrolone positive comes out from BTC.

Good reporting by them and you Rojo.
A bit of a dig on LRC by the author:
Rojo and Gault, WTF is wrong with you guys? On the podcast you were defending BANNED athletes coming up with ridiculous, illogical excuses to justify clear violation of anti-doping policies. Defending an athlete who WAS already banned once and is now banned AGAIN for YET ANOTHER set of whereabouts violations?
Now consider this gem from Gault (paraphrasing), "USATF must take responsibility for athletes failing anti-doping rules...." Are you kidding me? Since when did USATF/USADA become babysitters? Seriously, GTFO. Yeah GTFO...
Forgot to add, the article rojo linked to is garbage. A one word glorified food truck review, the word being "delicious". Don't waste your time reading it.

You don't understand the case. Brianna was not banned for whereabouts violations. This was her first missed test of this time period. She was punished for tampering documents, which sounds bad but is completely trivial once you actually take the time to understand the case.
This burrito article told me nothing new except the pork stomach burrito is edible and from the truck cited here, quite good. Shelby would def have noticed it wasn't just greasy, it was a whole different thing than carne asada. They don't mention it's greasy but it obviously looked like ringlets of some other kind of meat with maybe pork rind on it. They should have tested it or not written the piece at all.
Seems odd that the two countries (outside of Russia) that have the most confirmed doping cases - the USA and Kenya - also happen to have the most 'unfortunate' cases of athletes mislaying papers, getting stuck in traffic jams, eating tainted burritos etc.

Well, where there's testing there's going to be confirmed cases as well as broken rules but I wish they weren't judging how well you do paperwork. If you think Brianna McNeal is acting for nefarious reasons, there is still no reason for her to change her abortion date by one day. She just messed up, had a brain fart, which is kind of common these days. I WFH and people get so many more details wrong than they did before when we were more out in the world. Things like annotating June for all of April.
I think her case is different from Christian Coleman's (he had fair warning and then actually missed 3 more tests and he continued to set his testing time for 7pm, which is chaotic). I'm not convinced that means he's a drug cheat but the time banned seemed to match his carelessness. Was it 2 years? Shelby Houlihan's is actually a doping case and one of her arguments for her defense is that she never missed a whereabouts test. I don't really care if you're prompt and organized if they found something in your system you can't explain. And she got LESS time than Brianna. 5 years is just too much. If she had done nothing to try and explain her one missed test, she'd be at the Olympics.
wow, one of the most appalling pieces of garbage ever written
The logic of this so-called "science journalist" is completely flawed.
What if you had e.coli food poisoning that you believe you got when you ate a burrito 7 months ago at a food truck. So how does testing burritos 7 months later at random food trucks help you prove or disprove that you got food poisoning from a burrito last December? It doesn't.
It takes a special kind of stupid .....

How many calories were in the burrito?
