The whole Lance Armstrong thing has me really angry. Yes, Lance is kind of a douche sometimes, but not only did he pass every single drug test with flying colors, this all went down 17 years ago.
The USADA has a statute of limitations of 8 years. What they are doing is an ILLEGAL WITCH HUNT. After all, how can one man win the contest seven times, if he wasn't taking performance enhancing drugs.
You know what? The guy had testicular cancer. The *legal* medication for that is hormones. Even if he was doping, he was doing it under the supervision of a doctor for a very real life threatening issue.
As for how I feel? Drugs don't matter. If you need Marijuana to deal with the pain in your bad back, or anything else, you should be allowed to use it. Period. Full Stop.
The thing that really pisses me off about drug testing is Marijuana is one of the only drugs out there that is fat-soluble, so it stays in your system for a couple of weeks. Cocaine and other harder drugs are water soluble, so unless you were shooting up five minutes prior to the drug test, you're going to pass.
