Cofidis is continuing its "kick 'em while they're down" policy they initiated with Armstrong. They asked David Millar to show up to their head office in Wasquehal the day after the Tour passed, but still within easy driving distance to the current Tour stage. The reason was to take a meeting in which Millar would be fired, and to make sure that it would be done in conditions where Millar could get the full benefit of press coverage to comment on his disgraceful exit from the sport. Nice work!

Yeah, well considering they probably are following the race personally, this brought them close to the office and was timely. David, for his part is about as guilty as anyone of rubbing peoples noses in it as he knew they were zero tolerance and doped and lied about it, quite possibly implicating two others on his team if the tale about two riders getting his leftover is true. He should be back in two years, assuming he's got any moxie in him.

I wonder why nobody acknowledges this? We will see what kind of character and resiliency he has. I don't expect him to bounce back quite as easily as many others have. I am not in the mood to get in to why, but he did betray a lot of people. He was a second year pro for Cofidis when the Festina affair broke. I will same the rest of my thoughts for another time.

Look at all the former Festina riders in the TdF today. Seems most of them bounced back after that shame, in particular Spotty [censored].
The question really is, is David a playboy or does he have the grit to train and work hard during his suspension and come back?
