Did you learn NOTHING from the Britney thing!😉 Drugs get 'stored' in hair. As it grows, the drugs will get transferred to it or "grown" into it. Something like that...

Hair tests are pretty remarkable. They can actually take "stripes" of the hair to create an approximate timeline for a person's drug use. Here, her hair test was supposedly negative, while her UA was positive - who knows. For whatever it's worth, a gas chromatograph/gas spectrometer US is highly accurate, but so is a hair test, so . . .

wow. that is pretty remarkable.
 
I met a coke user who told me that he didn't feel any different when he took it except that he could run a mile and other such athletic feats. I guess that's your performance enhancement right there.
 
Somehow, I don't think professional athletes who take cocaine do it in attempt to enhance their performances. They do it because they're cokeheads.

And she retired simply because she's no longer a hot player with everyone beating her...
 
"I believe", was that lost in translation? Believe is a qualifying statement; how can a person not be positive that they are innocent if indeed they are of such an accusation?
 
I have seen it happen quite a few times over the years in pro sports. It's actually a shame really. Pro Athletes unknowingly snorting cocaine instead of icing sugar to get their boost. I think the icing sugar kingpins are pulling the old switch game.

That sounds ass-backwards. UA should show positive for @ 72 hrs, while the hair test is said to be reliable for 6 months.
 
I always thought she was pretty and loved her game. She was very good in her prime before her feet/ankle injury.
 
she wants to join the supermodel snorts coke club

Kate Moss is the honorary lifetime president
 
What's the big deal?

Maybe she just wanted to get down, down on the ground....

Or maybe she got bad news, and wanted to kick them blues....

Perhaps she realized that her thing is gone and she wanted to ride on....



She don't lie, She don't lie, She don't lie.....
