Tyler Is Not Alone

From CyclingNews:

Santi Perez positive for blood transfusion?
According to Spanish newspaper Marca, Phonak's Santiago Perez has been
tested postive for blood transfusion in an out-of-routine doping control,
said to have been carried out just before or during the Vuelta a España,
which the 27 year old rider finished second overall. It is yet unknown if
the sample returned positive for homologous or autologous blood transfusion,
but it is claimed certain that a counter-analysis has already been
performed, and also showed evidence of blood transfusion.

Marca also publishes that the alleged sporting fraud was the reason for
Perez' non-participation at the 2004 World Championships in Verona, which he
skipped because of gastroenteritis according to his management. The
newspaper also attributes the rider's difficulties of renewing his contract
with the Swiss Phonak team to the positive doping control. The reason why
the UCI or the Spanish cycling federation haven't issued an official
statement yet is said to be due to a formality mistake, as neither the rider
nor a representative of the team were present at the B sample procedure.

If these allegations prove to be true, Santiago Perez will be the second
rider in history to be tested positive for blood transfusion, after his
teammate Tyler Hamilton.

Were Tyler and Santi roomates? Is it possible they could have used each
others blood? Or somehow exchanged bodily fluids.....(the mind
boggles).....nah, don't even want to go there.

Could Tyler and Santi been siamese twins when they were younger (shared a
blood supply) then separated when they were young??

Could be a movie of the week special!!

So if logic serves...


Perez is guilty, because he is a foreigner (from the USA perspective) and a
dirty cheater who should be sent to Guantanamo bay with the terrorists.

Tyler is a nice boy who is being framed and never did it. Infact it was
probably Perez that framed him... ya, thats the ticket.

Both are dirty and Phonak obviously have been upto mischief.This is the
Festina scandal all over again but instead of EPO , its blood
transfusions.A can of worms has been opened this year - i think alot
more high profile pro's are going to be exposed sooner or later.We all
knew the sport was riddled with drugs , but i think we are going to get
quite a shock just how depraved these people are in the pursuit of
victory.

At least we know that there's one clean team--Postal/Discovery (with the
possible exception of Pavel). ;-)
