The fact is they were over the limit and were fined accordingly.

The jab at Ness' 4 positives in 3 months was probably unfair, he was caught and he paid his penalties.

There is one guy on the list who isn't even in the top 20 that had 8 positives for the meet including a 15 day suspension. But I digress...


The real issue is the stuff they can't or don't test for.
