Since today's QOTD discusses Gay's doping situation, I was wondering if it was ever released as to what he was busted for and/or any updates on USADA or WADA follow-up investigation on it. Is he going to get the full 4 year competition ban? What nutritional supplement was tainted?
Bump, also interested.
His axx and guns have disappeared, his beard has grown out, and he has started swim training.
Nothing to see here guys. Gay is clean. He trusted someone and was betrayed. He is now working with USADA to have the situation resolved.
Gay is an honest man who has proven time and time again that if you put in the hard work, you can compete with the best while being clean.

Bit of an oxymoron here - how can he be "clean" if he was "betrayed"?
I believe that he unknowingly took something that resulted in the positive tests, but why won't it be released as to what the detection was?

Probably someone gave it to him in his sleep.
Yeah, right.
"unknowingly" my a$$.
Moron.
Gay apparently failed in-competition tests for steroids, which is either breathtakingly stupid or a sign that was taking PEDs unknowingly. It's possible that Gay could receive a reduction in punishment based on a pure heart and empty head defense, like Lashawn Merritt and his Enzyte.
It's interesting how long the investigation has dragged on. That suggests that the investigation has expanded, perhaps to professional athletes in other sports who were treated by the same anti-aging doctor who was supposed to have treated Gay.
Does anyone else think Tyson was the person Lauryn Williams was referring to in her recent post?

I think that was the pretty clear implication.
Tyson is hanging out with his girlfriend in Houston taking it wasy. No he was not set up but is playing that card to clear his name. He was knowingly on peds along with a camp he was closly working with whos runners are all on peds currently lol. Tyson has never been a clean runner he is a nice guy though
houston eh?
the home of clean athletics..

Nobody cares what you say because in this internally-inconsistent post you have proven yourself to be a total moron.

Link?
The fact that they seem to be hiding it is a bad sign.
He has been dirty for years. But now he got caught with something new.
Just like Ben Johnson who got caught for Stanozolol but took plenty more potent meds.

He wasn't unknowingly taking anything if he was going to an anti-aging doctor.

Pretty clear who she means-
I think the person who sent me to see this man had good intentions. I think the man distributing these products thinks he is smarter than everyone else when the reality is that he found a professional sports organization with lax testing policies where the things he sells aren’t tested for, so it was an awesome market to make big money. Then someone referred him to a track and field athlete who is a member of a much more complex testing organization paranoid about supplements and not afraid to ask questions.
...
I can’t say for sure, but it is my belief that this same person cost someone very close to me their career.
The whole thing is worth reading-

Williams' blog matches up with one of the early stories about Gay's positive-

Later stories say Gay tested positive for a steroid but mention HGH or testosterone.

I agree. Sounds like TG got mixed up with a crackpot.
