Molly Seidel Has Only Ever Been Tested 14 Times by USADA, Galen Rupp 212 Times

Despite all those negatives people still think Rupp is dirty yet somehow Shelby is clean???

Their database isn’t accurate. I’ve been tested a lot more than it shows. Plus Galen is 8 yrs older and probably been drug tested since 2003.

Shelby Houlihan has only ever been tested 59 times by the USADA, meaning about 1 test every 3 months. And the USADA failed to even catch Houlihan doping with all these tests, it was only when the non-American AIU tested Houlihan that she was caught. There is something extremely rotten and corrupt about the USADA. And in case readers didn't catch the sly against the USADA in the first post, the USADA has in fact in the past given heads up phone calls to athletes that they are coming to test them, wink wink nudge nudge

Cash under the table can make USADA tests go away or be negative

Bullshi₱

You have no inside knowledge of such dealings and are clearly pushing for USADA to come knock on your door.

How often can I expect that door knock? Only once a year like Molly Seidel or more than once a month like Galen Rupp?

Of course the USADA will officially deny any incompetence, wrong doing or corruption. It's not like the USADA failed to catch Lance Armstrong prolifically doping for decades with hardcore and common PEDs right under their noses.

You have got to be freaking kidding with me, the USADA testing database shows that Lance Armstrong was only EVER tested by the USADA a total of 31 times all those decades stretching back to when he was a teen cheating in triathlons with PEDs. The database shows only 2 tests from when he was in triathlon and only 29 tests over all those decades as a cyclist. That is absolutely pathetic amounting to just 1 or at most 2 tests a year despite being the most prominent and suspicious American athlete ever. This is just more evidence that the USADA is insanely corrupt and only when Floyd Landis started talking to the feds did it care.

USADA has clearly protected their athletes over a long period of time,AIU catches the cheating yanks.

Interestingly, the USADA has on record 5 tests for Wejo but no tests for Rojo. Was Rojo never tested?

Odd that you would pick two athletes at completely different points in their career to compare.   A more reasonable comparison would be Grant Fisher who has only been tested 12 times.   

If USADA is testing someone with high frequency, it's probably a sign that they see suspiciously high levels in the samples or some other suspicious pattern. They can tell the athlete is doping, but until he or she produces a sample over the (high) threshold there's nothing USADA can do. So USADA will continue to test them frequently, in the hopes of tripping them up or at least forcing them to microdose at a lower level.

The fact that Seidel isn't getting tested frequently is probably a good sign, it means they haven't seen anything suspicious. And she isn't getting tested just once a year anymore, you're averaging out tests over years when she wasn't internationally competitive.

Not odd at all. It shows that the USADA is extremely predjudiced against Galen Rupp subjecting him to more than tests than anyone else, 16 tests alone in 2021, and this has gone on for over a decade and they have yet to catch him for a single thing. Compare this to Molly Seidel who wasn't even test AT ALL in 2019 when she did her extremely suspicious marathon transformation overnight for the Olympic Trials. You have got to be screwing with me that the USADA wouldn't even test her when she did the most suspicious performance of anyone.

The USADA has been testing Galen Rupp monthly or even more frequently for over 15 years with 212 tests and you are telling me they can't even catch him with cough medicine? What kind of incompetent anti-doping agency is that? Someone in the USADA has a personal vendetta against Galen Rupp, not because Rupp is doping. The USADA is simply harrassing Rupp by subjecting him to an extremely high number of tests, more than anyone else.

Well, Rupp was on the likely (blood) doping list from the IAAF, and Rupp was also flagged for likely testo doping by USADA. Plus, he was coached by drug cheat coach Salazar. So there are obvious reasons for that target testing.

And for the records, USADA tested Houlihan 16 times in 2020 (AIU finally got her in December 2020), compared to Rupp's 14 times. Clearly Houlihan has been on their radar too.

Well Galen's not a complete idiot, he knows enough to keep his levels just below the threshold. We know that Alberto did testosterone experiments on his son and had access to his own testing, so pretty easy for him to beat the system. But if you test enough you increase your odds of eventually tripping someone up - they eventually caught Shelbo, right? My guess is either she got some cross-contaminated PEDs, or she had figured out a pattern in the USADA testing schedule and the WADA testers caught her by surprise when she was running hot.

The USADA didn't catch Houlihan at all. It was the non-American AIU that came it and easily caught Houlihan in one test that the USADA couldn't do in 59. The USADA is with incompetent or corrupt, likely both.

Molly was a nobody in 2019.  She was barely sponsored, was training with a local track club, and put in a bunch of 100+ mpw.  Are you expecting USADA to

Hit reply too soon.   Are you expecting USADA to test athletes before they even make a breakthrough to the national level?
