These athletes get randomized drug tests on a weekly basis jesus christ how could she fukk this up!

Yeah she broke the rules which she took accountability for which is rare for women to do these days but with the passing of her mom and the stress to perform probably got to her.

We don’t know what she’s dealing with internally. She’s young so she got plenty of time to make her mark…hopefully this will be a learning experience for her.

I no weed expert but they really count it as a performance enhancer? The only way that would work is if there flamin hots at the end of the track.

It's not stated it's a PED.

However as someone said and think it's stated by IOC due to the effects it can have on a person, such as being calmer and/or focused they could have an advantage over someone who is not.

But in short its been banned for decades, so just follow the rules

 

[JLova]

how many times do i have to say she was dumb for this and i know its illegal?

im explaining why people use weed to function.

stop being so mad

why would I be mad?

I don’t understand why this is such a big thing. Every athlete knows the rules. End thread.

It gives a competitive advantage to some athletes.

fukk up an Olympic bag for a bag of vintage haze from the Heights, brehettes.

 

[Ghost Utmost]

Everyone is grasping so hard to try to absolve HER of HER OWN fukc up.

Whenever I'm unemployed the first thing I do is STOP SMOKING WEED.

Why? Cause I will be drug tested next time I apply for a job.

There's no excuse for throwing everything away to smoke a blunt of some mid

[Silver Surfer]

With between the recent national anthem protest from a 3rd place finisher and this weed debacle....

Whats the International view of black women in the US?

 

[leoc]

if a coli breh made a thread on getting fired for testing positive for weed, yall would be laughing and calling him a fool for fukking up the bag

but some of yall in here making excuses for what? she knew it was banned and she did it anyways

 

[zerorequiem]

Incredibly disappointed in her. You don't have to smoke ANYTHING to cope with ANYTHING brehs. There are many other ways to outlet. Personally I think there's nothing wrong with weed at all. But she knew she had a shot at the Olympics so why endanger that? How are you honoring your mother now?

As an athlete training at the highest level why take substances you know will potentially fukk up your chances at gold? I was rooting for her all the way, and still am. She was like the next Flo Jo people were saying and I was all in.

[O.T.I.S.]

One of the most important 30 day stretches of her whole career?
You're asking what point?

Yeah, i am

it wasn’t that important for her not to smoke, was it?

 

[Mike_Pipeson]

What an idiot. Fukk you mean I'm human

No

it is a banned substance in almost every country if not every country.


Like someone said above, they even banned certain BP medications. I’m sure there is other over the counter shyt that was banned

point is, she knew the test was coming, sounds like she sparked up the day of. I get she was going through shyt but do something thats legal at least.


Looks to me like she didn’t really give af
