The Veej Beat

Cameron Morfitt, writing in this week's SI Golf+ Digital joins me on the deer antler spray desk, with a piece that updates us on Vijay's lawsuit against his Ponte Vedra neighbors.  Morfitt is shocked, shocked to find that there's gambling in Casablanca.

More importantly, he fills in some details, such as the fact that Veej was hit with a 90 day suspension, lifted after WADA unexpectedly removed the spray from its banned substance list ostensibly because it didn't contain enough IGF-1 to trigger a positive test.

But the best part of the article is its exposure of the underlying cynicism in the Tour's drug testing program, i.e., it wasn't designed to catch anybody, at least anybody more important than Doug Barron.  So, let's pull up a comfy chair, grab some popcorn and sit back to enjoy the show.
