Cabada tests positive for Clenbuterol, won't face suspension

This post has nothing to do with my defense of Scott Simmons my opinions of Simmons at this point in my life are not necessary to post. This is my defense of Fernando as once my teammate but also one of my best friends. Also you stated "Saying I am full of shit back then" 100% true my level of knowledge and education to be able to give an honest statement about anything back then was probably flawed by my own selfish desires and focus on being an athlete above everything else. My service to my country over the past two decades which ended with a medical retirement, my level of education now being an MBA, and my development as a man which includes being married to the same women for nearly 10 years and having two children indicates that I have shaped my self up. What these means is I choose wisely who I let around my family. Fernando is a good man and for you to say "This is the kind of crap I constantly hear about Fernando" says what type of a person you are which is obviously not a good once and obviously one that does not know Fernando. I was trash back then which is why I made necessary changes to my life. I had to sit down and figure out who I was and you right I didn't like that person back then.

It is actually possible, assuming his levels were low and he has been living outside the USA. WADA does recognize high the levels of Clenbuterol in meats in certain countries.

So you dope up, make a trip to Mexico, buy a steak, and now have an easy cover. It's basically a get out of jail free card it seems.

Hesch was driving to Mexico and picking up the EPO and driving back.

Hudson's female athlete was having the EPO mailed from Mexico to her in Colorado.

Corey -

You say you have grown up and shaped yourself into an honorable man. Your comedy career (I struggle to call it that), off color jokes, and deplorable language would say otherwise. Best of luck though, dude!

PS - Adam Carolla didn't really like your routine. He was trolling for followers.

Corey,

Great to see you still on the boards buddy. Ignore all the ignorance and the petty personal attacking. I am proud of you and I was proud of you when we were teammates. I never saw a runner run in circles just to make sure he hit his minutes (even though he got his miles) until I trained with you. It was and still is inspiring. As for defense of Coach Simmons and Fernando, I agree with you. I developed into the absolute best runner I'd ever be with you guys as teammates and with Simmons as a coach. I saw a lot of runners do that. I saw a lot of life lessons. All of it built us to who we are today, which is successful. Fernando has and always will be a clean runner in my eyes. More importantly he is a good man and a generous man just like Corey says. We forget that the news never wants to report the positive, it doesn't generate message board posts. Fernando, I hope, keep his fire burning and continues to push forward in the world of professional running. I agree with you Corey, I do not believe Fernando to be a doper or drug user. He is a good friend and someone that deserves our defense. This is just an unfortunate event. A mistake. Something perhaps we should all be better educated on.

Now I know why his coaching plans are so expensive.

He includes the juice!!!

Baaaah

I just want to say that Cabada is a great guy, and he wouldn't ever take no drugs to get the fat off his a$$.

And yeah he had a bad day at the trials, but he wouldn't take no drugs.

That's what happens when you make a mistake.

Wonder if Donald Trump will put him behind his wall

Can't you hear the bell Fernando?

I clicked on the thread just for this joke. Thank you.

Hey Corey, I just wanted to start off by saying I am so verry sorry to hear about your mom. I wish the best for you and your family. I cannot imagine how devastating this all must've been for you.

Was your MBA mail order? I have a hard time believing that someone with your grammar and syntax could ever have succeeded in an academic setting. I guess you don't need to write well in that field... I digress. Your character testimony to Fernando is touching and it is great you have such a strong relationship with him. However, I am doubtful that any doper would be described otherwise. Are we to imagine that all dopers are vicious people who kick dogs and hate people? Look at Lance Armstrong - everyone always said Lance was a great guy and with the whole cancer thing he would never touch drugs. Then it turned out he was downing the entire medicine closet. Whether Fernando is doing the same or not is something that we may never know but we can say for certain that this is highly suspicious on many levels.

Why was Fernando going to these strange out of country locations in the first place? How is it that Fernando seems to be the only US runner this has happened to? Also, I agree with the poster who voiced that this was very suspicious in light of Fernando's comments on his weight and need to lean out. It would be an unlikely and seemingly unfortunate coincidence that Fernando was found to test positive for a drug that did just that! I for one believe he should be banned. The rules are as they stand and should continue to stand. Fernando should face the consequences of being poorly informed about his diet. The small amount they found in the test could alternatively be explained by some sort of dosing regimen he started weeks ago and had since tapered off.

america covering up doing. nothing new

Once it's built

Should have just used Prednisolone, the drug of choice of many UK athletes with a TUE. Who obviously need to use it in much higher doses than any other person with mild exercise induced asthma, and for much longer periods than is generally recommended.

Very similar effects to clen, much cheaper, get it from your doctor. Well, normal" doctors wont prescribe you it unless you are at death's door.

Mutko says we can start importing dodgy meat from China. Easier than TUE.
