Otherwise known as the Aldo conundrum.
WHO THE FUCK ELSE WOULD THEY BE?
can someone explain to me, why would someone other than USADA want to impersonate USADA and collect an athletes urine?
Why would someone pretend to be USADA?
To then send the sample to a pretend WADA lab?
To write the athlete a pretend letter to tell them they are tested positive?
To ban them from sport?
I'd really like to hear some rational, sensible ideas on why someone would pretend to work for USADA and what possible detrimental effect this could have on the athlete
Theory 1: Framing you for a criminal offence
Theory 2: To gain access to your property to rob you
Con: Get to watch fighters pee in front of you, (possible recording to jack off to later, or to sell)... robbery, identity theft, etc
Sabotage: Someone could stick a dirty needle into you on account that they are from USADA and essentially ruin your life right there.
Murderous Intent: There is someone out there who is crazy enough to pretend to be someone else, especially 'USADA' who have all the reasons to show up without anyone knowing who the person is before hand, show up with no warning... and basically get close enough to the athlete to do damage. There are a lot of very hateful people out there.
Rape: This is no joking matter, but especially with women being tested in our sport, a guy can show up and pretend to be USADA, and drug a woman and do some real damage/
Abduction/Kidnap: Especially for when athletes are in foreign places, they get 'visited' by someone who claims to be a representative of an organization like USADA with no ID... just to get close enough to the 'star' for a possible kidnap and ransom situation.
Could go on, and on. This is why it is embedded into us from a young age not to let strangers into the house.
