[NMCycling] Seriously?

[Cliff Loucks via Bike-racers]

Yea, but in Teeple's case, they made him prove he's naturally deficient 
so the supplement would bring him up to a normal level.  Saying it 
another way,  they are allowing him to level the playing field - just 
the other around.  Let's call it playing the level field?  The article 
doesn't say anything about a middle of the pack requirement in his case. 
That said.  How many people have the resources to pay out of pocket for 
an MRI?  You'd have to give up the next bike purchase.  I'm sure there 
is more to Teeple's case than the article mentions.  Based on the facts 
it presents, I think the exemption is warranted.

And That's The Way It Is,

Many of you probably have no clue who I just quoted.
