    Petterson failed a drug test.. Is this because of standered testing? or Floyds Olympic style drug testing?

    Is it because of Floyd?

    Well, there was no random testing, for pros, before Floyd started it.

    Well, you highlight an interesting point. In most people's view, overnight, he's gone from a guy who worked hard to get to the top to a cheat.
