I would tend to be careful with generalized opinions here. The supertesting at AP has netted quite a few well known trainers. Might be good to see how close and what the nature of the positives are before casting aspersions.

5 positives for a pain killer (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory) sounds like he was routinely pushing the boundaries. My guess is he got caught with his toes over the line because they didn't routinely look for that pain killer in the past so he didn't worry about being too careful on his withdrawals.
