I'll believe this stands up when I see it.

I read an article on this and from what I understand it is going to throw the burden of proof on it's head. The athletes who want special dispensation will be assumed to be guilty and they will have to prove they are innocent. If they hold to this, I'd have to believe it'll be pretty hard to do. Of course, they may soften on this approach and it'll be a kangaroo court and basically all but the obviously guilty will be allowed to compete.
