Sounds kinky!!! Actually the day of his big breakthrough stage, I said something like "he sure took plenty of steroids last night with his Wheaties!!!" Right now it looks like that was true even thought I was joking.

I agree with others, hopefully it is explainable or he took an allowable injection in his hip joint that caused a false positive. We don't need more cheaters, there are enough already.

How is this a shock/surprise to anyone?

As far as I am concerned, they are all dopes.

Are you accusing me!

I know for a fact you tested positive for a high level of estrogen!

Quote from MarcK: "I think Floyd was clean and I think that's why his performance varied so much. I also think that's why you didn't see any rouleurs leading the high mountain passes this year."

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight (shaking my head)

Perhaps the corticosteroid shots he was cleared for, to recieve b/c of his hip isssues may affect that ratio...

Also Tyler will have someone who's allowed to race with him.

I can't help but think now that the enormous amount of water Floyd took onboard on that stage wasn't about careful hydration. It was about trying to flush the drug out of his system before the end of the race.

Take a dose of a size that gives you the grunt to break away early in the day, then hope it breaks down, and you can flush out what's left before the end of the day...

Pereiro was screwed, if this was caused by doping. The greatest moment of his career snatched away from him.

I picked Floyd to win before the Basso/Ullrich DQs. I was rooting for Pereiro after he ended up with the yellow jersey- I always root for the underdog. I was happy for Landis when he made that great comeback. Now I am unsure how I feel about him.

true. But what if Ironman started doing dope testing at their events? I'm sure we'd see some folks testing positive for that stuff...

now I think all of you should have to write an apology letter to PAULO !!! It should include the phrase "you were right and I was wrong."

ugggggh....say it ain't so...stage 17 was so fun to watch!

 

can someone explain to me the benefits of taking whatever landis took?

I am a noob to this stuff

in the Maratona delle Dolomiti in 2003, 80% of the riders were found to be in possession of some doping substance, after a anti-doping raid was conducted by the Guardia di Finanza and the Carabinieri. Could athletes dope without knowing about it?

lol!

OWNED!
