    It sucks for Stewart and all of us that like to watch him ride, but he knew the rules and didn't follow them. It sounds like several other riders got their TUE's filed but Stewart didn't. 16 months is a bit overkill in my opinion though!

    The most ridiculous part of the whole thing I think is that it took them 8 months to reach a decision! I know they can't do it overnight, but come on... 8 months! Think of all the $$$$ Suzuki has tied up in Stewart's bikes, testing, and preparing for the upcoming SX season. A1 is in 2 weeks and they are just now informing Stewart and Suzuki that they can't go racing. Total BS is you ask me.

    These guys are professional athletes who should not be allowed to take any medication linked to performance enhancement, amphetamine or other, prescribed or otherwise. The media always cries cold medicine, but they know the rules going in, just don't do it. I value our sport as much as I do the Olympics. And I feel that it should be treated with the same seriousness.

    I do believe that James broke the rules and should face consequences.....
    That being said, I'm not convinced the punishment fits the crime, and taking 8 months to ponder his fate was complete and utter bs.
    Its time the sport got serious about testing ALL the moto athletes on a consistent basis.
    I bet that the field would get really small if every athlete was tested for PED's and punished in the matter JS7 has been.

    Might I presume the others that filled out the proper paperwork will remain anonymus. Do the olympics have rules like this drug is ok if prescribed and reported, strip your medal if prescribed and not reported?

    The decision gets announced lately but there might have been pretty good ways to estimate it prior.
