Although the league may not overturn this suspension, all of the work and evidence brought forward in this instance may save Cushing a one year suspension next season if he pops again.
If there is a rare legit medical reason why Cush is making extra female hormones in his body it is much better to do some of the leg work now rather than wait till he is sitting out for a year.
Hindsight is 20/20, but I would rather sit here and shake my head at something that seems perposterous now rather than shake my fist and wonder why they didnt do everything possible to ensure a legitimate issue was addressed when it first came up.
