I think that committee has too much time on their hands. Nine cups, lol. Any athlete drinking that much would need diapers or a spot a pot following them around.

I think the Olympic committee should get their act together and produce a policy and then stick to it. Seems a little too selective in some cases.

Agree. He's missed two Olympics now & there are a lot of countries out there that just enforce the WADA IOC bans & are allowed straight back into the Olympics, no fuss.

Chambers made a rod for his own back when he let rip on some of the head honcho's in his autobiography & their egos have punished him ever since. Bloody disgusting the way they got him banned from the diamond league & he couldn't make a living. At least the guy fessed up right from the beginning. Gave them all the information they asked for & has done numerous tours of schools etc about the dangers & pitfalls of drug use. Millar suffered similar punishment after he was busted but again at least the man had the decency to fess up when he got caught not like a lot of other athletes, cyclists etc out there that'll deny everything till their six foot under.

They're supposed to be changing the rules to include a one Olympic games ban along with their other ban for getting caught.
