Ed,
This dude is a math professor working in the world of MMA (and also triathlfun- maybe he is reading this? Sam, you there?). I think using less words to form a concise thought is not in the cards.
Again, imagine if Mr Carmichael had come out with that statement back in January of 2013?
Also, TJ was also busted on EPO for an earlier date, as well. This situation was no accident. Mr Calvitta has been working with this guy for awhile, so not sure how the super smart genius guy can truly distance himself. I am not calling TJ the Lance of MMA, but the parallels to include being accused and denying previous teammates doping claims are fascinating.
