  1. Since VDB gets to walk I've finally had enough. Banning riders who can present
    a case for accidental doping, hounding Lance on suspicion, and VDB walks is
    complete [censored].
    I think that Tyler may very well be innocent, but I don't give a flying [censored]
    if he is as guilty as it gets because the rules are screwed.
    Thanks USAC for the Moninger/Neben contrast and [censored] you too.

    Glad I don't get that excited about top pro men, and just follow the women
    for fun. I would be dissapointed if Tyler is in the cheaters club and if
    most of Europe is cheating then that makes me just want to tune the men out
    ever more. Like I said before, even if the ladies start juicing all over the
    place I will probably still enjoy them just as much, and its much harder to
    hate the ladies, they are so much fun!

    Good thing that you know what the cops found and what VDB had to tell them.

    I'll have to go back and look. I should've quoted the story then, but a
    spokesman for the law enforcement people made it pretty clear that VDB had
    refused to cooperate with the investigation. Not my words it came from a news
    report that I found but not sure where now. Could be they are mistaken, but
    until see something else I've got to go with it.

    Bill, my point was that you shouldn't jump to conclusions based on
    spotty knowledge of the circumstances at the very best.

    I'm really more [censored] by the fact that VDB got caught with the stuff right in
    the house, refused to cooperate and is being given a slap on the wrist for it.
    Compared with the "let's get Lance!" witchhunt over Simeoni.
    Part of it was from CN yesterday then I went digging. Here's the bit from CN:

    Quoted:

    The case started on February 27, 2002 when police raided Vandenbroucke's home,
    finding EPO, clenbuterol, growth hormone and morphine along with other illegal
    performance enhancing products. But the investigation was hard pressed to find
    their source. "Vandenbroucke has swallowed a lot of junk," Mr Van Linthout was
    quoted by Sportwereld as saying. "Many products came from the German and
    Spanish market. There was even a brand new product that wasn't available in
    Belgium yet. We would have gladly examined the dossier in greater detail and
    found the big fish in the trade, but Vandenbroucke chose to be silent about
    that."

    Van Lindthout is the prosecutor.
    I'll look for the other article I found too. I thought it was at BBC Sport but
    it's not.

  7. Hey Bill, I'm not a sure where you stand here. Could you tell us how
    you really feel? :~)

    Actually didn't Gerard testify for Amber? Like hsould even be
    allowed? How could he really know her? Or maybe he had gotten the
    opportunity "to know her" before he testified...

    Hey, but all this stuff has always been screwed. Like weren't they
    serving beer at Gear Works? Hmmm, but I couldn't. You know, the ABR
    didn't give a [censored] and neither did the town here, just USAC.

    Oh how those rules work.

    I'm really surprised that I don't get more [censored] than I do, but in the big
    picture I don't count so I guess it's not that surprising. I expect that
    eventually they'll make it clear that I need to shut up, or get with the
    program. When that happens I'll be done with anything USCF related.
    The whole process has got to be public, consistant, and biased in favor of
    presumed innocence if at all. Anyone who has a conflict of interest needs to
    take themselves out of the process when it comes up rather than use their
    influence to help their friends.

  9. Witchhunt?

    Armstrong rides in 2nd position up almost every TDF climb for several
    years in a row. There are only two circumstances where he breaks his
    own wind (farts and time trials).

    The other members of the break have already gone on record as to what
    Armstrong's threats were. He used his words not only to illegally
    affect the outcome of the race, but to intimidate a witness in the
    process as punishment.

    Lance wants to intimidate every pro in the peloton into helping him
    hold up the illusion that they are all clean. It helps him sucker new
    sponsors like Discovery.

    Any update on Tailwind's case against the insurance company that
    refuses to pay-up for the yearly bonus?

    I doubt if very many of them require intimidation. Anyway it should be
    interesting to watch Armstrong trying to intimidate Cippolini or Backstedt.

    Say, that's pretty good. Do you shingle roofs or dig ditches for a living?

  12. Hey, you're preaching to the choir. I have a buddy who missed a test;
    partly his fault, partly USAC's fault for not posting the call up for
    controls (they were fine by the UCI for this), and paid heavily for
    it. Meanwhile, Fuentes drags it out months, socking away the loot...

    I've really got to adjust my circle of friends. Talking civilly and getting
    along with either you or Lafferty is definitely walking on thin ice, as you
    well know. But [censored] I say good things about both of you, I think that's a
    capital crime.
