Vikings running back Onterrio Smith has been caught with a masking device designed to cheat drug tests the Minneaplis Star Tribune reports. He has detained at the airport for carrying a device called the "The Original Whizzinator" and a bottle of pills labeled "Cleansing Formula". Smith "claims" he was bringing these devices to his cousin. http://www.startribune.com/stories/510/5396655.html
Smith was suspended four games last season for testing positive for whacky-tobbacky, which was his second violation of the leagues substance abuse policy. Considering that Ricky Williams recently admitted he had been smoking pot for years and had simply taken a masking agent to cover it up, I'm guessing that Smith has been doing the same. From what I've heard masking pills are an effective way to pass a drug test. Of course the most effective way to pass a drug test is to NOT DO DRUGS.
Smith is another talented running back who is risking his career by fooling around with this kind of nonsense. It will be interesting to see how the Vikings and the NFL react to this news, considering the recent controversy surrounding steroids and drug testing in the NFL.
