No, it is a directeur sportif who puts his own ambition and greed
ahead of any efforts to clean up the sport after what happened last
summer. Cycling is on its knees and yet all JB can think about is his
pocket and his ego.If you are feeling so defensive of him, go back and
read some of the quotes and nonsense he came out with around the time
of signing Basso.

Forgive me for being annoyed, but I've had enough of these greedy
shits who don't give a f*** about the sport. Anyone who loves cycling
should feel the same. And anyone who defends Bruyneel needs to have a
long, hard look at themselves.

Evans? Is Evans returning from a suspension? Or did you mean
Millar?

The way things are shaping up, Evans could be looking good for a

It's good that Basso resigned from Discovery. The question now is how
much Basso damaged Discovery's image.

Obviously the next stage is that those that have been cheating in
competition have to escalate the 'cheating on the test' portion. Then
all those that are agitated and disturbed about the overt signs of the
possibility of drugs and cheating can go back to sleep.

The recent cases are not signs of more cheating in bicycling or any
other sport, but simply that the cheaters and their enablers are
getting sloppy and careless and are letting the leading edge of the
testing catch the back markers of the cheater set.

And in the end, that is indefensible and entirely unnecessary. Shame
on them...

I think you should switch to crack lite. Where in the world would you
find any evidence of a conspiratorial coverup, and why would you think
that, if in fact Lance had doped, Basso would know details?

Wouldn't it be greener pastures for conspiracy somewhere where the guy
isn't confessing? See, the way you want it to work is choose someone
like Danielson and say, "What is Danielson hiding about Lance? Why
doesn't he say something?" That way, they both look guilty.

And I apologize for taking Danielson out of the Tours, just as some
were picking him as a survivor...

It was good to see Discovery doing the same? Good? They knew all along
Basso was guilty, and the only reason they dropped him (oh, sorry, he
'resigned') was because they knew what was coming. They don't deserve

So what is it with folks who spew their own holier than
thou cant as they whoop and gloat over somebody's
misfortune? This is not someone running down and
killing a cyclist then getting probation. This not
crooks on Wall Street and crooks in board rooms
outright stealing billions. I prescribe perspective and

I like Basso, his style, focus on the long climbs and improvement in
the ITTs. I was hoping he wasn't involved, as he repeatedly
insisted. More bothersome is the fact that he openly lied about his
ties to OP for nearly a year. Imagine, TdF and Giro winners get
busted in the same year for PEDs! The fact that Herera got stripped
of his Vuelta title the prior year puts grand tours in such a bad
light. The winners of the TdF, Giro and Vuelta all stripped of their
titles? Although I doubt Basso will face a similar fate. I now agree
with ASO - Implicated riders should be banned from the ASO sponsored
events. The Giro and Vuelta organizers should do the same thing.

I really like the idea of cleaning house in the sport. They need to
fine these riders in addition to the suspension. The riders are
gambling that they won't get caught and that they can make a lot of
money in 2-3 years gaming the sport. Awful behavior. It's so
difficult to watch the sport on cycling.tv these days and consider the
number of riders who are using drugs or alternatives to enhance their
performance. Even the riders returning from suspensions dished out in
2005 suspect in my eyes. Evans and Hamilton take note. And all those
spanish riders who avoided prosecution on that testing technicality in
OP - Contador et. al.

Riis was the smart director sportif and got rid of Basso right away.
It was good to see Discovery do the same as it probably saved the team
a lot of embarassment. It's difficult to recruit a new sponsor when
your top rider has a fridge full of blood.

More or less. The assorted articles all use the same language and
don't actually have him confessing to doping. He confessed to his
implication in OP and his responsibilities to cooperate. It'll be
interesting to hear the content of that confession.
"Yes, I've smoked marijuana, but I didn't inhale."

You left out:

"Imagine my surprise when someone explained it was blood doping. Until
then, I thought it was completely legal."

OK, so answer the only question apparently left - if Basso still owes
Fuentes money, does he have to pay?
