The lab which tested the TDF samples again said it wouldn't make the names public before the riders would be informed that they are positive.

Finally. I hope they do that from now on for all positive cases. It's ridicolous the media and the public get to hear it before the riders are informed. |

No mentions of such a procedure.
The testing started Monday, but we already had a list of names that day. We knew for a couple of weeks that there had been more names caught with CERA.
Guessing now : what started Monday is probably the B samples testing, and the names we got to read here and there are probably those of riders whose A samples were returned as positives. |

But that list isn't an official list from proper authorities. And in the beginning of the week the rumours said 14 riders. Now we're down to 10 riders!? |

And the rumors were posted by a Belgian newspaper. Who was their source again? |

I'll be looking forward at seing if they can get any bloodbags, so that they can DNA test them. If they can I'll be looking forward, to what will be capalble after that.

It had nothing to do with doping, he was arranging a playdate.
And now for phase 2, the phase where me and others in group of people A, composed of people who always said CSC are doping, ask for satisfactions to group B, composed of people who called us idiots, cynics and worse.
In phase 3, elements of group B will deny ever having said any of that and the whole process will restart with some other team or group of riders.
Just as happened before with Phonak, Liberty, Astana, etc.
Yes, I am bitter. But this time I have a valid reason to be

I can hear the danish PCM communities shutting down because they have lost their faith in the sport. And i just heard that the user F_Schleck is planning to change his name.

I'll take your cue then Issoisso.
Are you celebrating that you might be right? Cause this is indeed joyous news, that is obvious. Finally proof that CSC are dopers, That their antidopingprogramme is fake and so on. |

This morning I found out that some music numbers, get you to perform more, and on the top of list was ABBAs dancing queen. That increased your physical performance by 15%. So ofcourse the money, was so that he could get hold on a non-publish ABBA single that is even better than dancing queen

You all misunderstand. Schleck only made that money transfer to pay for some training instructions which Fuentes had given him .. like Cecchine for Dekker |

It was a stab at a certain type of person.
basically the following has happened more times than I can count:
Step 1:
I say "I fear that this team/random-group-of-riders is doped because" [insert rational arguments]
Step 2:
"Those" kind of people reply "You're an idiot because I say so. Watch me mock your arguments without using logic or reasoning. You're also a cynic and you hate cycling and all that is pure and good in the world because I feel like saying you do". [insert evil laugh followed by devouring of an infant]
Step 3:
Said rider/group of riders tests positive/confesses/is caught/whatever
Step 4:
"Those" people deny ever saying any of that to me
It's an infinite cycle that keeps repeating over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, the only changing variables from iteration to iteration being the implied rider(s) and the composition of "Those people".
It's very annoying

And the people never miss an opportunity to recall that "every one is innocent until proven guilty" and that you can never get the proof before step 3, no matter how obvious it may be.
Sometimes it even gets sick
"you're simply jealous because :
- the riders of your country suck
- your favourite rider sucks/your favourite rider gets beaten all the time by that rider you're accusing
- your country has a problem with the country of the team/rider you're accusing
- being jealous and a bad loser is in your genes"
Yucky.

When this one comes I randomly pick the most obvious doper among my favorite riders and mention that I'm a fan of said rider. It never fails to shut them up.
Kind of like when everyone disagreed with me for about 2 whole years when I kept saying Gutierrez was massively overrated as a time triallist. Everyone kept saying it was "because you hate spanish riders". My only answer was to patiently remind them Gutierrez is one of my favorites...
In other news:
Grabsch admitted that when he had not received an offer from Columbia by the beginning of June, "my manager asked Milram, but they didn't want me."
I laughed. |

Now the danes has begun defending Schleck. They come up with suchs good things, fx. I wrote that Schleck was suspended, and one answer was "no he's just pulled out of their racing program untill they know more"
