But it needs to be clear cut. I don't want contamination issues coming into play, sabotage, etc. There will always be exceptions.

well, since certain substances get more days, or a harsher punishment then others, maybe they would have a limit set...when you limit out, you're out. one major, a couple of minors....there absolutely should be a limit. it shouldn't be a constant hand out of positives, a fine, a slap, a short suspension that is really a vacation. it's ridiculous. what's more ridiculous imo are the deep-pocketed owners who don't care what a trainer does, as long as they get their mug in the winners circle picture.
