This is so boring.. GDS leaves a group once every two years and then on top of that Shelby is already convicted. I just don't have the bandwidth to care about this.

1. We know Schumacher was, at best, sketchy with the truth during the first press call announcing the doping failure. That's not even in dispute.
2. There is credible evidence that he was continuing to train an athlete who failed a dope test and that they were working the system to ensure she could train with her teammates. GDS was advised by an anti-doping agency to provide an anonymous tip-off.
It looks to me like someone should have at least been asking questions. Maybe a USADA official just knocking on Saint Jerry's door to ask if he's playing by the spirit and letter of the law.
