According to Jeff Hamiton, the appeal means going to the second sample which also tested positive. Appeal is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think MOS or the Bomber brass will let him appeal it. He's pretty integral to the Bomber image on and off the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VoR Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 Harris missing the next two games for pretty much any other reason, and I'm ecstatic. This, however, sucks on every level for everyone involved I wish I could hope for a lab error or something, but these things usually have so many quality controls in place to avoid false positives, that's why it takes two months to announce Frack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Evgeny Kuznetsov's excuse of yeah it was right in front of me but I didn't take it so that's why i tested positive a year later. If you test positive for drugs your first line of defense will be "I did not take drugs." and the second line of defense is "Trace amounts, it was only trace amounts!"

bearpants Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 This is really disappointing...

Goalie Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 3 minutes ago, Mike said: Everyone is going to defend this because it’s Andrew Harris and we are Bomber fans but let’s get real. He tested positive because he did it. They don’t just throw Dianabol into supplements, you don’t just whoopsie daisy your way into consuming it. The reality is whatever he was taking to mask it, he messed up and he got popped. And I say that as a huge Harris fan. But let’s not cover our eyes and ears and ignore reality just because he’s a Bomber. Im not. I just read all the statements and how many times hes been tested and the fact he was tested 10 days prior. To me, this is def something he didnt knowingly take. Besides this test was done July 12th.. Over a month ago. Hell 6 weeks ago. Results just out now? Harris is a stand up guy.. Straight shooter. U don't have to believe him but i will.

I am beyond pissed at him. Until proven otherwise I’m blaming Harris for this situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's masked, trace may only show up. Also, it takes a few weeks to get results. Then, appealed and they go to the second sample. And here we are.

WBBFanWest Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 We place enormous amounts of pressure on pro athletes to perform, and even more pressure on stars like Harris. Not condoning this, but it's not surprising either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This must be your first time experiencing news about a positive test for steroids. what do you expect him to say? “yeah I did it, oops”? The test results take time, you don’t just pee on a stick and have it turn colors. He appealed which caused a second sample to be tested. It’s no wonder the process took time.
