Bottom line - enjoy a drink or two. If you find yourself regularly hitting 6 or 7, well, you're going to have more problems than decreased athletic performance to worry about.
"The first group drank juice. The second had "a moderate amount" of alcohol added, equivalent to about six or seven standard drinks over two or three hours." (From the report.) 6 or 7 drinks doesn't sound like a moderate amount? sounds like falling-down-drunk to me.
(Who do I talk to about getting on the follow-up study?)
