DId you hear about Floyd Landis???? OMG!!! I can't believe after years of saying he was clean that he now admits to doping. AND he emailed the news and cycling authorities to say that Johan Brunil knew about it and Armstrong, Hincapie, and Zabriskie all dope, too. Really? I'm so mad and hurt about him doping, but then to throw everyone else under the bus really p!sses me off. If Lance or George ever admit to doping, I'm done watching cycling.

Re: ***Derky***
Holy crap. I hadn't heard about it until you paged me. WTF?? Um, At this point, it's almost all too crazy for me to understand. I mean, he says that this all happend when he was at USPS and at Phonak. What I don't understand is that all the people he mentions were getting year round, surprise testing at that point--in AND out of competition testing--what are the chances that NONE of those riders, during ANY of those hundreds of tests would have popped a positive? Back then (with Lance especially) the media would have pounced on any inkling of a positive test. Though Lance's responses to the drug testing have always been too carefully worded for me, I think I understand why he says what he says now. It wouldn't surprise me if we found out that he took some EPO or whatever during his initial recovery from cancer, for medical reasons which is why he can't say "I've never (in my life) taken any performance enhancing drugs" because he may have--you know better than I, but I've heard some of the performance enhancing drugs do have regular medical benefits for cancer patients in small, carefully regulated doses.
I don't know if this is just a case of a rider scorned, or what....but....holy crap. I mean, he basically listed every American rider that's achieved anything in the last 10 years internationally. I just don't believe it--his credibility is too shot for me at this point. We'll see what pans out, I guess.
I'm still in shock, too. Lance made a statement that basically said he wouldn't acknowledge the whole thing. I really liked Hincapie's statement. Why should we believe anything Landis says when he's been lying for 4 years????
On a lighter note, DH found this when searching Team Radio Shack's website (be sure to look at the back):
