    This man is either incredibly unlucky or incredibly clueless.

    There are also OTC natural products touted as anti-depressants.

    But I'm going to go with "the chimera did it".

    So this means he's suspended, again? Two years at his age and it's curtains for his career.

    Yeah- let's hope it doesn't get worse but actually allows him the freedom to do something productive with his depression experience and not having the constant pressure to win.

    Possegal, that was the most hilarious comment! I watched that whole sport special on Tyler and his "chimera"...how ridiculous is that?! I LOVED your comment though!

    I feel really sorry for him.

    Was it here that I heard of folks organizing a local race that had to turn him away as he tried to sneak in? I think one can talk of a really sad case of addiction.

    At age 38, he is pretty close to retirement. Bummer that he had to leave this way. I've always been a fan.
