I don't know the exact specifics of what happened...however "doping" in the equestrian world is a lot different than in other sports. Many of the banned substances are usually just medications - similiar to human asprin - that can be mistakenly placed in their feed by the grooms.

As long as the FEI has such strict rules, there will always be scandal in showjumping IMHO.

Baseball and softball players aren't good enough for the Olympics any more, but horses are just fine.

Can someone revoke this kid's password or something? Does he realize that people come here and actually read this stuff? Do other authors understand that he brings down their credibility and the rep of Slog as a whole when appearing next to other entries?

What the hell

Adrian, I am thrilled that you are willing to say what so many, stifled and silenced by hordes of pimps from Mattel and Lisa Frank, will not or cannot say:

Horses are fucking evil. They're reactionary and brutal, they're dumb as shit and twice as smelly, and they really do eat children--I was nearly eaten by a horse at the age of three, and again at the age of twelve. This is absolutely not an exaggeration.

I'm glad you're outing them for what they are. It comes as absolutely no shock to me that horses are now doping for the Olympics; I'm sure half the thoroughbreds in Kentucky are paying for their posh paddocks with drug money.

Fucking horses.

No, Mr. Poe, she's right (@3). I've seen what this Adrian guy posts and it is total trash...didn't you guys run out some chick named Chelsea a couple months back because she was terrible? Yet somehow this hack gets a free pass....I don't get it.

Actually, Adrian is quite brilliant and has an excellent point. Clearly these horses have been following the bad example of Latawnya.

Adrian is the very reason I started slogging. Everything else grew from there.

All the more reason to get rid of him.
