Same here on STW? From some postings there is clear evidence of drug use, but I doubt it is of the performance enhancing type.
Apparently Dan Staite emigrated there to take up performance coaching....
More importantly, why did the reporter decide to include the acronym "PIEDs", with the full name in brackets, if neither were referred to again through the entire rest of the article?
