    Here's a link to the various policies and procedures that they must follow;

    If you, or anyone else who questions them, want transparency, feel free to read through all these documents.

    I think you buy into what you read in mainstream media a bit too much. Dig deeper.

    Common sense tells us everyone has a price.

    Let me ask you this. What do you think would happen if the public found out that the USADA allowed someone that they tested to write into a contract that they are allowed to fail a specified amount of tests? Keep in mind that they entire reason the USADA was even formed was because the USOC was covering up failed drug tests.

    I really don't know. Boxing's reputation is so bad they could say they allowed it to try to start to bring about change rather than just turn it away. Again, as far as I know they don't do any other professional sport and their website clearly states their purpose in life is the Olympics.

    I think you do have a good idea. It would be a public relations nightmare. Again, there would be no reason to even conduct testing if the participants are allowed to test positive. In this case, it's being alleged that only one of the particpants are being allowed to test positive and that they are posting false test results on their website. So now you have a rigged testing program that they are trying to cover up. There's no talking your way out of that.
