Tyler's gold medal
What ever happened to that lawsuit filed by the Russian and Aussie
federation against the IOC to take away Tyler's gold medal? How many hundreds of thousands of Euros were WASTED on lawyers's fees by those two federations that could have been better spent on grassroots programs? Thanks, Magilla |

I'm glad you asked it. And the answer is Tyler still keeps his gold medal in a red-felt lined jewelry box. And Ekimov still has his silver...and that Aussie got nothing but kangaroo dung in his back lawn. Magilla |

Dear Haven, (oops, I mean Magilla),
Does Tyler have any trouble sleeping at night with the guilt? |

Tell us. http://www.tas-cas.org/en/medias/media3.htm Viatcheslav Ekimov & Russian Olympic Committee v/IOC : this procedure, initiated by the Russian Olympic Committee and Ekimov further to the decision of the IOC not to amend the rankings of the time trial in cycling at the Olympic Games (won by Tyler Hamilton), is now in its preliminary phase (evidentiary proceedings). No hearing has been scheduled yet. -------------------- No mention of the Aussie suit, unless it's being run in conjunction with the Russian one. Probably they are waiting for the Vuelta decision. The precedent would be Muehlegg and Lazutina, who both lost Olympic medals for events where they passed the dope tests because they failed a later test. The Olympics allow athletes to be stripped of all medals in the case of a failed test. Since Tyler failed a test in a non-Olympic event, that would be extending the precedent. Bob Schwartz |

The rules say if the B sample is lost or untestable, the A test cannot be validated and is therefore considered negative. Even if Tyler is found guilty this week, he will still get to keep his gold medal. Magilla |

Bob Schwartz "Waiting for the Vuelta decision?" What does that have to do with anything? The Vuelta occurred after Athens and is therefore irrelevant. The Becky Scott precedent which you refer to has nothing to do with this case because in that case the athletes stripped of their medals tested positive BEFORE the Olympics, not after (and one was during the Olympics, but in a different event). There is NO precedent - and will never be a precedent - for being stripped of a medal for testing positive in an event AFTER the Games because that would be irrelevant (look up the definition of time as defined by Einstein). Your legal analysis is so reckless and incorrect that I'm going to have to request you never post about this topic again. In Scott v. IOC, there the rules were on the side of Scott. In the Hamilton case, the rules are on the side of Hamilton. Tyler will keep his gold. It will be a unanimous decision. Magilla |

HavenGorilla,
I cannot answer for some scientists I have never met. Do we take your non-response as an admission of the afirmative? Sure your husband will get to keep his gold, but his credibility is another question. |
