I'm worried about Bradley's health because they decided not to do RDT.

    He's using the same testing that Marquez Bradley used.

    Did you have a problem with that testing agency? Just curious.

You think all these bikers and baseball players would be coming up dirty if they or their teams were paying for the testing, with private contracts?
      Exactly!

      Basically corruption is unpreventable no matter how you slice it. But there's less conflict of interest with NSAC. Also size of an organization plays a role too when it comes to corruption. I'd argue it's easier to corrupt a one-person staffed organization (VADA) versus an organization with more than a dozen full-time staffers (NSAC).

        We see eye to eye on this. Commission testing is not ideal, but it's the best possible option lacking a national commission like Germany or Britain. That would be the gamechanger in a lot of ways, including testing

          Wait so Bradley is doing both VADA and the NSAC 2.0 testing? Odd. I'm still cool with that though. Anything other than Vegas testing circa 2011.
