He's talking about the price, in dollars. Testing is expensive. Whistling

The dustin Johnson story is pretty interesting. I'm a daily listener to the Dan Patrick Show and they had a little bit on DJ's situation a couple days ago. They mentioned some rumors of DJ fooling around with other players' wives and things of that nature, too. I wonder if this might be a "tip of the iceberg" situation for him. If so, I hate to see it.

He went to the local HS a few miles from here so his "escapades" are well known to some.

How many are aware he was linked to a murder when he was in HS?

There are those who were convinced he was a changed man years ago, like in this article.

Not looking like he's changed that much with his latest issues.

wow! definitely didn't know that about the murder link. Sorry to hijack the thread, but as a huge golf fan here, my curiosity wants to know more. care to share?
Here's a link that this came from:

"In 2001, Johnson was among five teens involved in burglary where somebody took a gun. According to appellate court documents, Johnson was persuaded to buy bullets for the gun by a friend's menacing older brother.
Later that month the brother, Steve Gillian, was charged with murder after shooting the victim multiple times in the head. Because of Johnson's connection to the crime, he had to pay restitution for the theft and agree to testify at the murder trail. Gillian is serving life without parole."

Some of the people on here would have made the best Puritan witch hunters back in the 1600s. A good amount of Monty Python witch hunting logic goes on.

I hope whatever you heard it's not related to this recent news story..... Anthony Bosch surrenders to DEA
"....At least 25 players, either by name or nickname, appeared in clinic documents reviewed by "Outside the Lines" over the past two years, although MLB lacked sufficient evidence to bring suspensions against all of them. Sources have indicated that the number of MLB players who dealt with Bosch over the years could be significantly higher.

Records reveal that Bosch also serviced athletes from other sports, entertainers and South Florida business types, often prescribing regimens of growth hormone and testosterone...."

My guess is, James' appeal was denied or his "B" sample came back positive. If that's the case, I bet is we won't see James racing 2015 SX or worse James retiring.
But that is all baked into the cake. We know that is coming. We know the B sample will test +. I do not think Guy would post for that. Leads me to believe there is a different issue. We will know soon enough..

There are not any new positive tests as there weren't any tests done after Lakewood....and to the absolute off the wall speculators and conspiracy theorist's....where do you get this shit from? Some moran names Dungey by just making it up....a moran from Sweden tries his hand a conspiracy claiming that the US MXDN team was given leeway by not testing at the MXDN....Pretty sure they don't even test at the MXDN....just complete BS! Wow!

I don't "know" anything more than what I've read.

I can't substantiate anything I've heard so I'm not about to be "that guy" and spread hearsay. What I've shared so far is public knowledge so I can't be accused of looking for attention. Don't want it, don't need it. I have no problem discussing stuff that's already out there - like what I linked to - but not looking to sling mud.

What I do know is that the old saying about "birds of a feather" is generally true. My experiences have taught me that I don't want to be around the people that have first hand knowledge of certain events because the chances of becoming part of one of the "events" is too great. Certain activities attract certain elements that can lower your life expectancy. However, sometimes you just happen to know someone who has a connection but isn't one of the "birds". They might even be a bird catcher.

And most of the people who claim they had no control over where they were and just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time tend to be looking out for their own interests. Ask the cops how many "innocent" people they arrest - virtually all of them if you believe the suspect.

Time will tell whether someone has changed or not.

So, the question is - does it look like much has changed at this point in time? A single event is a dot, multiple ones are dots. Dots can form patterns and patterns can sometimes be easily recognizable. Anyone see a pattern emerging?

But there's always time to make adjustments... until you run out of time. Here's hoping there's enough time.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled MX discussion. Cool

What Mr. Giberson is trying to say is that everybody tested positive except the guy who has made all the races but hasn't yet scored a single point. He's the 2014 Outdoor National Champion. Correct?
wouldn't that be a hell of a story...JMO140 Champ!

The exact kind of post that usually gets yanked because it could start rumors and accusations about riders. Plus, Guy would like people to post quality content that benefits the site and helps make vital a legit place to join.
I guess he just couldn't resist and had to fish but it's his show and he can do whatever he chooses.

Did they (suzuki) also threaten to pull out of the series if the AMA didn't reverse the penalty? Seems like I remember it that way.

It would make sense since only RC got his points back and not the privateers.
It wasn't Suzuki....

Which should be followed by "... it was (fill in the blank)".

Care to share and set everyone straight so we'll all know why RC got all his points back and the privateers got none?
