    film at six: twins peak.

  3. Maybe Tyler will try pulling out a fetus during the next trial.

    "Nothing up my sleeve here, but looking in my abdomen...HO, HO, look it
    that UCI, it's my twin!"

    Maybe it'll explain why he crashes so much too; the fetus is throwing
    off his center of gravity.

    You know what I don't understand is this:
    If Hamilton's argument is his missing twin, why not agree to be locked
    up for , say 6 months. He doesn't [censored] without some neutral third party
    knowing about it. No chance for any injections of anything.

    Then, he submits to the blood test again. If he really is a chimera
    like he says he is, then he should test positive again. Right?

    6 months. Not necessarily really locked up. But with his shadow going
    everywhere he goes. Hell, I'll do it for 50K. I'll even go out on
    rides with Tyler if he keeps it under 25 or so.

  5. I was also pondering the Linford Christie case, and pure thought
    led me to believe that what was considered physically impossible
    in 1996 (a response time of less than 1/10 of a second), might
    now be. In particular, it seemed to me at the time that Christie
    obviously did not anticipate. I was proved correct:

  6. Good read.

  7. John, the problem is that Tyler tested negative. He showed just enough
    activity that the testing facility put a 'negative but funny' tag on
    the results and the originator of the test - who we can all agree isn't
    exactly a neutral party - changed the negative to positive. He said
    that he didn't have any numerical standards but that he knew a positive
    when he saw it.

    I assume what he meant was that SOME activity combined with a
    hematocrit right on the line (Tyler apparently had a 49.8% hematocrit)
    was enough to convince him that Tyler was a true positive. Despite the
    fact that he was the ONLY positive in the entire Olympics and later the
    World Championships.

    Without a false positives study the findings are almost preposterous.
    His high hematocrit might be because he lives and trains at high
    altitude and the Phonak doctors always water him down with saline
    solution before races so that there's no questions about his high
    hematocrit.

    Remember that some significant part of the population has 'unnaturally
    high' hematocrit (over 50%) naturally so that isn't some far fetched
    idea and Phonak would be unlikely to admit to using IV's to correct
    high hematocrit since it would make them look like they were
    cooperating with doping.

    In the latest Cyclingnews Perez makes a pretty bitter comment that
    implies that he and Tyler have been mistreated by the UCI and Phonak
    because of the testing which he ALSO claims is false.

    Of course Brian would say that they're guilty regardless but who cares
    what he thinks?

  8. Tyler tested positive at the Olympics and at the Vuelta.

    Tyler got tested again in November 04 and once more (I think) in Feb
    05. The latter two were negative....

    Is it just a coincidence that he only tests positive in competition?
    Makes the vanishing twin seem extremely unlikely.

    Oh, that's nothing. They found an entire EPO factory in my left
    testicle. Which only makes Lance's victories seem all the more remarkable.

    Since there is no standard you don't know if his "negative" was any
    different from his "positive".

  11. Come back and talk when you have been involved in FACS testing in - in
    any of its multitude of uses. Results are clear cut except when they
    are done in Greek labs. Have you ever seen a Greek lab at work? The
    Athens debacle is less surprising when you have seen one.

    Tyler is really clutching at straws with the vanishing twin story when
    his tests are not consistently positive.

    So what are you hiding in your right nut - a micro Starbucks?

    Never mind, I don't wanna know.

    I wonder if this flab in my gut is actually the fetui of my long lost quadruplet
    brothers?

    You must be quite popular with female endurance athletes.

    WADA has no interest in doing such a thing. They're satisfied of Tyler's
    guilt. Tyler on the other hand does have an interest in doing such a thing.
    But in order to do it, he needs to have the testing protocol which was used,
    so he can follow it. He (and his lawyers) have been asking for the testing
    protocol from the beginning, but WADA won't give it to them.

    I thought she preferred pursuiters, albeit one at a time.

    He didn't test positive at the Olympics. That is why he got to keep his
    medal.

    He did test positive at the Olympics. Haven't we been though
    this before? The positive positive positive positive positive
    positive positive positive positive positive positive positive
    positive positive positive positive positive positive positive
    test was invalidated by the destruction of the B sample.

    That's why he still has the medal. But you knew that.

  20. Patricio, if I understand what you mean, you're saying that the Greek
    lab simply screwed up the results. All of that is fine but explain why
    there have been only TWO positives for blood packing in cycling when
    this was supposedly so wide-spread? I mean, we did discuss how unlikely
    it would be for an endurance athlete at these guys level to be able to
    'save' up blood for autologous transfusions so it's homologous or
    nothing.

    If it is "nothing" than why has so much effort been put into this
    testing procedure and why aren't WADA releasing their testing protocol?

    (Note: if "nothing" then perhaps that explains why they don't wish to
    do a false positives test series.)
