Just goes to show how not-all-solved the problem is I guess.
Cycling is getting tiring. When are they going after the NBA? Watching 200 pound guys jump higher and farther than Barishnikov is getting old.

Yes...and Lance was 100% clean during his comeback...we know this because he told us so. He "swore" to his ex-wife that he would compete clean.. (she subsequently turned out to be a bit of a dealer herself).
Here is a pic of Lance and DiLuca during the 09 Giro...when the waters were more calm...pun intended. Simoni and Basso are in the Gondola too. If Somali pirates attack...Di Luca, Big Tex, Basso & Gibo can grab those oars and out run them.

They're all in the same boat, yacks! They're all in the same boat.

It's a gondola... A GONDOLA !....but I'm not gonna get all semantical with ya

This is insulting and makes me even more suspicious than I might have been:
Four-time US Professional Road Race champion Freddie Rodriguez (Jelly Belly Cycling Team) said Thursday that being "put in the same boat" with a generation of riders tainted by performance enhancing drugs was hurtful and disrespectful of the hard work he has put into earning results throughout his 15-year pro career.

Pretty much every time I hear "I'm OFFENDED that anyone is even ASKING!" is a guarantee that the respondent is guilty as sin.

I always liked Fast Freddie....but really, can a 39 year old sprinter with almost no racing under his belt show up at Nationals, stay with the lead group four times up a 13 minute climb and then out kick all the guys in the break? I suppose with the right pharmaceuticals anything is possible. And that's all I got's to say about th-hat...once again my thoughts turned to Je-nny...

Will the Giro fantasy points be expunged, GIVING ME THE WIN (and precious leftover 2009 KCC socks?)!

He's not guilty until after the B sample, the appeal to CAS, and at least 2 years of protracted of legal nonsense.
At that point I will hand back the 2009 KCC socks and they will be subsequently presented them to you at a lacklustre ceremony, behind closed doors, that nobody cares about anyway.
So now you have something to look forward to.

Deal. I'll take it. Better than nothing. Plus, you don't race cx so they'll just be sweaty and not muddy.
See you in 2015.

I judge riders based on their kits. Foundation riders look like a prison chain gang. Vini Fantini guys have that brash I don't give a shit how ugly my kit is doper look that Astana rocks. Seriously.

This is so sweet....I love how the article does not mention that Big George was a Big Doper....
"I didn't feel super today" translation...my blood bag was not so fresh....
Jun 04, 2013 at 01:44 AM
truth be told...I'm thinking of staying for at least one night...just so I can leave Big George an "upper-decker".

Wow Velo-snooze makes me sick. Oh the humanity that the press didn't highlight the suspicious behavior... says man identified as "Press" writing in the "Press" with a straight face.
"Visconti took two heroic, solo stage wins on Galibier and in Vicenza. Little was asked or printed of his Ferrari-related ban over the winter. And few talked of Santambrogio’s Mantova ties and split with BMC Racing when he won on Jafferau."
Well Gregor Brown did you write about these things???

This is GREAT !!!!! and it is about fucking time ! Baseball is late to the table with PED's as it was good for business (see Sammy Sosa & Mark McGuire going for the hr record). I am happy to see that Bud Selig is attempting to right the ship and clean up his legacy.

I spent the dough but this looks deeply flawed ... he's comparing WATTS, not Watts/kg... which seems like an incredible oversight at this point in the discussion...

don't let the facts get in the way of a good story.....we all know what was in their water bottles.
