? poor guy!!! if he had been tanked up on whiskey…fair game no problem!!! i get doping for performance enhancing!! but come on!!!! not exactly gonna better his performance this is it!!! poor guy!!!
0.46 is that a legal move?….btw whats wrong with a little herb?….even the guy in the blue shirt knew it chills people out even though seconds later he claimed he knew nothing about the drug…..he looks like a toker……
Yeah man all true, it all sucks too 🙁
50 years hey, thats optimistic but i like it, lets hope common sense prevails within that time :).
Peace.
Weed is for the weak of mind… his ass should kicked out of the fucking country…. only the strong survive.
the THC gets stored in your fat for only 2 weeks they can trace it in your pee after two days from usage and it can be traced in your blood for only 2 weeks after the usage but you are correct about the water it helps to be undetected in some cases
Appeal and win!!!
weed dont stay much long into your system only 2 weeks cause fat stores the THC in your body
its like the army man it dosent matter if you are stoned or not if you have it in you they kick you he said he smoke it by mistake anyway i dont know whats up with the dude but the fact that if they find that in your system you are out dosent matter if you smoke it or you ate it maybe in 50 years weed will be legal man but as for now that is the shit that they have to deal with
How ironic, but I really don’t think using actual dope is what the anti-doping rules were set up to stop.
bud? lol!
the British, america and zion’s should not be in the games because they are war criminals/warmonger simple as.
still no illegal wmd yet after 10 years? where is the 45 min wmd than?
Whats so fucking bad about weed compared to beer and spirits? There are fucking ADDS for beer during the olympics.
a few days ago, shameless american officials claimed chinese for doping, though no evidence at all; now what? LOL
WHAT A LOAD OF FUCKING BOLLOCKS!!
if it was steroids that enhances performance, then fair enough! i would say weed is equal to alcohol, but its NOT! weed is purely recreational and does not cause nowhere near as much harm as alcohol.
but then again, if you are competing in a big sporting event like this you should leave the weed alone for a while and stick to heroin. because it stays in system for a shorter time. thats why people in prison take herion instead of weed. STUPID FUCKING LAWS!!
You could be correct about the time limit of cannabis in the body, i just assumed it was different for each person(fat & slim versus metabolism) and i said the maximum time its possibly ‘could’ stay in your system but hey, what if the guy had a dozen poppy seed bagels the day before?, same outcome i fear, disqualified for a positive drug test? (false positive).
The law is a complete ass when it comes to cannabis, yeah sure it was in his system but was the guy actually ‘stoned’? when competing?
Sounds like someone put it in his food. Sabbotage. If he ate it accidently. This must be what happened.
World Anti-Doping Agency [WAA] Respect!
Cannabis stays in the blood for months, it hugs the fat cells, ironically if this guy snorted a big bag of cocaine or injected Heroin or smoked some crack then he could just drink plenty of fluids and wait a couple of days and test negative.
The ‘effects’ of cannabis only last for HOURS however, the THC stays in your system but has NO effect on function.
The law here is a total ass and so are the people making them, if anything taking cannabis would HINDER your chance of ANY medal.
check for cheaters zion ex army athletes British too. fucking white hypocrites cheaters.
Asia is still winning yeah.
This may sound stupid, but I would’ve thought Marijuana would have just made him a complete space-head in the Olympics and not aide his performance.
