It really is a stretch, especially since it appears he made payments to Fuentes in 2005 and possibly 2004...but only planned on doping during the 2006 TdF...

Well, Amgen (Mr. EPO) already sponsors the largest North American tour. May be they can be pursuaded to sponsor a real doping bonanza on the continent!

It's a tough balancing act between the caffeine (coffee and tea) and having to bail to take a piss during the race. Tylenol doesn't hurt for us Fat Masters either. Bill C

[the following is a repost] A bunch of guys I know were getting ready for a race and their coffee machine wasn't working. Racer A is totally stressed abut this, repeatedly mumbling how he needs his coffee in the morning. Finally racer B, or Brian, gets sick of this and says, look A, here's a caffeine pill, take this." To which racer A responds, "But Brian, I don't do drugs." JT -- JT **************************** Remove "remove" to reply Visit http://www.jt10000.com ****************************

If an innocent person were accused wouldn't their behavior be exactly the same? If you know you didn't do it, what would you say? "Yep. I guess I am a doper even though I _know_ I never took any stuff. The tests, and the human operators, are infallible so I must be a doper." Sound right to you? Personally, it seems to me, that people that believe everyone else is lying are themselves liars. It fits with their world view, so it shouldn't be difficult for them to accept. "Everyone lies, so I must be lying." Same sort of faux logic.* BTW, I have little or no opinion on who did or didn't dope. I'm just pointing out that your logic is flawed. R * Faux Logic is a great name for a band or almost any brand. Cosmetics would be particularly apropos.

Surely you jest. His story is Completely ridculous. There is a pattern to all their(Basso,Landis, Hamilton) lies... They admit to what can be proved and explain everything else away as a conspiracy or more lying. Its pathetic. They can't accept, nor want to admit, their whole career is a fraud.

Given the punishments imposed by a sanctimonious gang of hypocrites, might as well tell stories that will bring even more disrepute to the sport. What can the sport do now? Throw them out of the sport? Also it's fun to make anonymous hate-mongers froth at the mouth. -- Michael Press

Dude, you are so wrong about that. Justice would have been served in 1988 if Delgado had been given the boot like he should have and the Yellow Jersey been given to it's rightful owner, the pure as driven snow Steven Rooks. Thank God the Giro had the good sense to stick it to that doper Pantani in 1999 and allow a clean Ivan Gotti to fairly win the race. It is cynics like you that are the real problem here. Bob Schwartz
