Apparently, some members of this forum would naively buy that explanation.

On those same lines, do you believe that James Toney only used steroids twice: the two times he was caught.

When someone is definitively caught cheating by an objective test, they lose the "benefit of the doubt."
Exactly. Hadn't heard about this failed test before, but it's turned my opinion against Vitali for good.
The vast majority of drugs cheats plead ignorance, after all, prison is full of people who didn't do it. As a PhD in sports science his pleading of ignorance is even more ridicilous.
