Sprintgeezer,
Of course I read everything you wrote. About the only thing you got right in your long rant is that I am a reasonable fellow. Just kidding. I'm not.
In fact, I don't really disagree with anything you said -- I just question the severity of some of your statements. You say "colossally stupid", where I would say "stupid". I agree it looks stupid that he could have and should have asked for a TUE for the injection. For professional athletes, 20-20 hindsight must be 20-20 foresight. Maybe he thought he was covered by the existing TUE. Maybe he thought his routine allergy treatments never caused an issue before, so there was no need. Maybe he didn't think at all. Maybe we'll never really know. (I think four maybe's is sufficient to make my point.)
I don't really have any "position" as such. Based on the selected details in the single track&field article, I'm inclined to think that the combination of the inhaler and the time released injection put him over the limit. It seems strange to me that the TUE he had covers him for the drug, but he still got busted.
I still have some faith in humanity, even sprinters, and I accept that this faith is often considered naive or misplaced. Maybe I'm just too far removed from the professional circuit to know what's really going on. I also have faith that USADA is in possession of sufficient evidence to better judge the situation, and that the 3 month slap on the wrist is somewhat just.
If I have any position it's that IF the whole issue could have been cleared up with paperwork, then it's not the same crime. He's guilty of stupidity, not intentional doping.
