U.S. judoka Nick Delpopolo expelled from London Olympics for pot

[Skip]

American judo fighter Nick Delpopolo kicked out of London Olympics for pot

"My positive test was caused by my inadvertent consumption of food that I did not realize had been baked with marijuana, before I left for the Olympic Games," Delpopolo said in a statement released by the U.S. Olympic Committee.

Dude must work out like a monster to counter the effects of the "munchies" all the time....

Don't care. I don't condone marijuana use, but believe it should be one's choice. He should have been more observant if that were really the case.

Either way, he's a dipshit.

Lol. I just seen this on fox. I kind of felt bad for the guy. I don't believe this story though.

"but but alcohol is worse" ~ says pot smokers everywhere

Either way, regardless of the effects or "positives" of marijuana use.....he knew it was against the rules...sucks to be him.

Too bad he didn't get caught prior to going to London. We could have had a clean competitor rather than "Bong-Fu"....... Just sayin'

They can't let him compete b/c smoking pot turns you into a ninja!

 

[Dredge]

I had the understanding that it turns ya into lizard like it did to Sgt. Stadenko on that Cheech and Chong movie.???

 

[ChunkyMonkey]

Lmao....sad part is, he already competed, placed 7th, after-event testing located the drugs, lol....two time lose.

He probably chiefs the gonja to calm down and mellow out. That's better than getting angry and judo chopping everyone. No?

I know, its performance enhancing right?

If someone can beat your ass while they're baked on some sticky, icky, icky they ought to get bonus points, not disqualification. And...the "Loser" should have to wear a big "L" medal around for the rest of the games for having some pot head whip up on them.

What a non issue.

Those guys are pretty strict with their rules. They seem to be looking for a reason to send you home. Whether it's not competing like they want you to i.e. badminton teams, or this dude got kicked out and sent home for just visiting his wife in a hotel room.

From all the reports, he could have gotten all the action he wanted in the Olympic village, LOL.
