Mick, what are your suggestions then? Rafael Palmeiro shows up with a positive steroid test. Hell, any MLB ballplayer shows up with a positive test for any banned substance. Independant testing labs and a neutral arbitrator then confirm those test results as being accurate and true.

You've just been appointed Commissioner. What does Commissioner Mick do with Rafael Palmeiro now? [/B][/QUOTE]

JR,
Find out why, how, where it happened.
Make certain the amounts found will actually affect the athlete. Treat each case on an individual basis based upon amounts, frequency and intent.
or...
light the match and turn away and go blindly into the night.
