- VDB had appealed against 200h. community service, now gets a 250000 euro fine "proportional to his cycling earnings and the amount of products he possessed". The fine is "rather mild, as they take in account his improvement since then" -> This will come down hard. His villa was built anticipating more fat years..
- The court went against the community service because it would be ineffective for VDB: the personality tests showed him narcistic and with huge psychological problems, resulting in a lacking sense of reality, and a problem with rules and auhtority.
- the court states he should be sanctioned as a drugs user, not as a doper: in the period the products were found he wasn't really active, and moreover certain products are in no way doping-related -> Pretty hard for VDB who got a doping suspension for this case from the sports authorities.

That's the best. He would even screw up community service...

I am not sure that letting him service the community would be in the communities best interest.
Speaking of which, I have met two people this year whose dogs were treated with EPO (in France), so VDB's excuse doesn't seem so stupid after all.
