At long last, why not make it start on July 27th, 2006 or whenever the B-Sample came in as "non-negative" ? He's lucky it wasn't retroactive to 02 Sep 2007:http://www.cyclingnews.com/mtb/?id=2007/sep07/sm100_07 Dan The retroactive date knocks him out of the 2008 TDF. An earlier date would have the same effect. He can still compete in 2009. |

Just proves the system is broken beyond any chance of having credibility. Landis may very well be guilty, but so is the lab, and that should've been enough to throw this out. Bill C In particular, I don't see how you can come to the conclusion that the chain of custody was improper and still find him guilty. IOW, it doesn't matter that we don't know whether the sample was tampered with or not: the sample was positive and we hold Landis guilty. It's practically an admission that they will use trumped up evidence if that's what they're given. |

Bill C Maybe Landis can get a job as Lance's personal assistant. I'll bet he's got enough dirt on Tex to make a really good deal for himself. |
