I wish those journalist and kindred **** disturbers would STFU

Nobody cares about doping any more except those who make a living
spouting verbal diahoerea about it - journalists, regulators,
investigators, politicians and such like lowlives.

Of course he was a fake. It seems to me the Landis bust started this
whole domino effect that now has taken down all the tdf winners going
back to LeMond the last legitimate winner to a whole continent of
athletes that of Australia.

Seems like Super Mario might have been some way short of legit.

Yeah but they won't, cycling's being nailed while the other equally
doped-up sports are mostly getting away with it. Shame really but in the
overall scheme of things it's pretty trivial.

I checked the archives here and it seemed the consensus was his "retirement" prior to winning World's was a publicity stunt. In retrospect it was an obvious attempt to dodge drug tests, but perhaps there was an overestimation of out-of-competition testing during that era.

I suspect he intended to massively OD on something and thought it was
better to be safe than sorry.
