Subject: More evidence against Ullrich
|
From the article: ---------------------------------------------------------- Hamburg - Jan Ullrich and his manager Rudy Pevenage were in Madrid on three different occasions to see Eufemiano Fuentes, the doctor who was at the centre of a Spanish doping investigation, according to Germany's Focus magazine. Focus reported that German prosecutors believe files found during a search of Pevenage's house in Belgium last year and entries in Fuentes' diary show that the pair were in Madrid at a time Ullrich claimed to be in his Swiss home. Seized papers also indicated that Ullrich paid at least 25 000 euros (about R266 000) to Fuentes. -------------------------------------------------------------- Read it at http://www.iol.co.za/index.php?set_id=6&click_id=185&art_id=nw20070708150602172C760081 J.

No. I have zero sympathy for those whodecide to use doping as just another tool to win. The ones who are driving the doping are those who will do anything to win. The example here is the handfull of people who believe that anything but winning is just the first loser. I'm sure there are plenty of athletes who don't want to takwe the shit, but don't see any way to keep their jobs if they don't. I'm sure lots of the teams have pushed hard to have their athletes "Do whatever it takes, and take advantage of all training methods for the best results" or be gone. Those athletes I have sympathy for.

You think all VDB's problems are cycling related? If he quits cycling he'll no longer have mental health issues? Damn it'd be great if it was that easy to help people with mental illness. Bill C

Like most of the others, he was given a diet and asking questions about it wasn't a smart idea. You go with the program, or else. At least they didn't feed him shit that effectively changed his gender, unlike some of the former females who now make Tammy look feminine. Bill C

Spaceman I have to wonder if he testified to something else under legal binding. They could hang him quicker for that than anything else though it's looking like a real mess. I really think that Jan is one of those people who allowed themselves to be led, as part of a system/team, and probably didn't even question it much when they assured him it was legal, and/or they'd get away with it like everyone else. If they hang Jan I hope to hell they get everyone else around him too. Yeah, I still have empathy for some of the dopers. Bill C
