That was last year, and they've only just been given their penalties. As I told you before, Gay and Powell were washed up - Bolt and Blake are the future.

"FORMER 100m world record-holder Asafa Powell has been handed an 18-month suspension for his positive test for a banned stimulant. Powell and training partner Sherone Simpson tested positive for oxilofrine after the 100m finals at the Jamaican national championships on June 21, 2013. A three-member Jamaica Anti-Doping Commission Disciplinary Panel unanimously ruled that Powell, who blamed the positive result on a nutritional supplement, was negligent, panel chairman Lennox Gayle said in announcing the verdict. The suspension is due to end on December 20 this year."

"USADA announced today that Tyson Gay of Winter Garden, Fla., an athlete in the sport of track & field, has tested positive for a prohibited substance and accepted a loss of results dating back to July 15, 2012 and a one-year suspension for his anti-doping rule violation. Gay, 31, tested positive for the presence of an exogenous androgenic anabolic steroid and/or its metabolites which was confirmed by CIR (GC/C/IRMS) analysis, as the result of two out-of-competition and one in-competition urine samples collected by both USADA and the International Association of Athletic Federations (IAAF). Anabolic Androgenic Steroids are prohibited under the USADA Protocol for Olympic and Paralympic Movement Testing and the IAAF Anti-Doping Rules, both of which have adopted the World Anti-Doping Code (“Code”) and the World Anti-Doping Agency Prohibited List. Since all three samples were tested in short succession prior to notification of the first positive result, the three adverse analytical findings, under the rules, are treated as one offense."
Gay is a lucky boy....Jamaica clearly take doping more seriously than the US.
