    Implicated = accused by some doper who was caught, faces
    severe penalties, and is now singing to the authorities.
    What surprises me is that Clemens et. al. deny the
    accusations. He could say "You guys just write `Roger
    Clemens does not deny the accusations'", or "It's so sad
    to see a teammate this way. I hope he gets well", or "I
    want to patch this up with Jason. As soon as the season is
    over we can go on a hunting trip together."

    Or he could just announce "Well since I'm already on the juice I think
    I'll ride the Tour next year."

    Like this?

    MLADIN: [Throwing the towel back at Spies] Sheesh. He wins one championship
    and thinks he can do anything. [More laughter.]

    HODGSON: So I'm just frustrated to be leaving, really, that's how I feel.
    I'm pleased for Ben. I think he's been cheating all year, but, you know,
    everybody knows that. I'm joking.

    SPIES: EPO.

    HODGSON: No, it's not EPO. I've seen him on a bicycle. He's useless.
    [Laughter] He kicked my ass all year, but I'll tell you, when it comes to
    actual power of the legs, he ain't got a chance.

    I like the multiple, "I never tested positive" statements is the articles.
    I am waiting for "I am one of the most tested athletes in the world."

    Yep, accused by a criminal caught red-handed and denying it, got to be
    guilty as hell! How dare they deny it?! Damn those folks in Salem had
    the right idea in 1692! or maybe these folks in history should be the
    example since Pound IS on a Crusade:

    I guess that I am tired of all of the BS on every side.

    The athletes cheat.

    [censored] Pound thinks that it is OK to do whatever he thinks is reasonable to
    catch them.

    Pat McQuaid is mad a [censored] Pound for focusing on cycling and for insinuating
    that cyclists are guilty before the process is over.

    McQuaid says if any rider linked to Fuentes is found innocent by their
    federation that he will appeal to CAS, insinuating that all named riders are
    guilty.

    The UCI is trying to screw the owners of the grand tours out of their
    products.

    The big riders are too selfish to push back against the Pro Tour doping
    clause so all due process gets eliminated.

    It sounds like a bad made for TV drama.

    Will that hunting trip be sponsored by the Dept. of Homeland Shooting An Old Man

    I don't even think Fox is that stupid. Sounds more like something
    cooked up by Oliver Stone and those folks who tried to give us Survivor
    Racist or whatever the hell it was.
    Unfortunately reality is frequently stranger than fiction and in this
    case it's getting awfully damned hard, as Frank was saying, to find
    anybody who is an even vaguely sympathetic figure.
    Of course we have the latest episode from those role models in
    Washington on how to lie like a rug. Sorry for insulting rugs
    everywhere.:

    Just a snippett:

    By PHILIP SHENON and MARK MAZZETTI
    Published: October 3, 2006
    JIDDA, Saudi Arabia, Oct. 2 - A review of White House records has
    determined that George J. Tenet, then the director of central
    intelligence, did brief Condoleezza Rice and other top officials on
    July 10, 2001, about the looming threat from Al Qaeda, a State
    Department spokesman said Monday.

    The account by the spokesman, Sean McCormack, came hours after Ms.
    Rice, the secretary of state, told reporters aboard her airplane that
    she did not recall the specific meeting on July 10, noting that she had
    met repeatedly with Mr. Tenet that summer about terrorist threats. Ms.
    Rice, the national security adviser at the time, said it was
    "incomprehensible" to suggest she had ignored dire terrorist
    threats two months before the Sept. 11 attacks.

    Mr. McCormack also said records showed that the Sept. 11 commission had
    been informed about the meeting, a fact that former intelligence
    officials and members of the commission confirmed on Monday.

    Seems to be a public epidemic.

    Perhaps she should ask the CIA to get her some carphedon from Russia.
