Don't believe the French they are notorious liars.

[Liftnainez]

yea he tested for more than normal amount of test in his body.. their testing again now..

[stee]

Don't believe the French they are notorious liars.

You kidding? cycling is one of the worst drug free sports for substance abuse!!

[J.S.N.]

Don't believe the French they are notorious liars.

actually it's the neutral swiss doing the testing (at least the organisation, not the individual testers).

[mwolffey]

hes on meds for his hip...that naturally caused high test levels...lol

[stee]

haha yeah.
that happens alot!

[Streaker]

They said Lance failed drug tests to after one of his wins and it ended up they Fed up the test and Lance was cleared.

[chest6]

yeah I saw that..interested to see what comes about it..

[ect0m0rph]

Dude that is interesting I hope it is false, but I think I will be a little skeptical the French hated that Armstrong constantly won so I bet they are not too pleased about Landis winning their tour too. But hey maybe I will eat my words.

[63190]

Wow, let's see what happens.

[thunderdan]

I think they should quit testing for roids and just let the most juiced up person win. Who really gives a fvck anyways. NOT ME. I could give a shit less if any of these pro's juice. Ill still watch as the rest of America also.

I hear a argument on the raidio about gear after dwayne chambers got done.
One guy who was like 60 odd said when he was younger he use to run n stuff. he said he use to (and alot of other runners) eat 2 mars bars an hour before running because it gave them an edge.
his argument was that back then is no different for the guys on gear now. cheating has always gone on, wether it be GH or mars bars, he siad stop all drug testing n lets see how far the human body can go as testing only punishes the ones who are caught out..
i thought fair enough hes got a point.

[Pooks]

yeah let all pros' juice.. plus also make it public that woudl be cool..

we could have the announcers say stuff like...

Well.. That Linebacker is running 3000mg of TEST a week, plus from his own words his EPO is peaking... it might shorten his career in the long run, but this is his contract year... the Opposing Running back is only running 500mg of TEST a week, so running into that certain linebacker could shorten his career too... This will be an exciting matchup, I cant wait to see what happens!!!

[J.S.N.]

They said Lance failed drug tests to after one of his wins and it ended up they Fed up the test and Lance was cleared.

there was nothing to clear. his '99 samples couldn't be used against him no matter what.

they aren't now that he tested positive. before that he was liked. what americans have to understand about the tour de france is there hasn't been a frenchman capable of winning it for about 20 years now- the french don't expect one to win it anytime soon, and it's not like if smeone were to get landis DQ'd a french rider would get the title.

[PROTEINSHAKE]

well.....its official....the test was "synthetic" how messed up is that crap???? what a complete idiot.

catch-22 bra. dope and risk getting busted and win, or not dope, no getting busted, but lose.

thats basically how it is..so he got it stripped from him??

[J.S.N.]

no, it's like olympic testing. you have an A sample and B sample, and you have to check them both and have the B sample confirm the A sample. even then, there's an appeals process, but the sample has tested positive for exogenous testosterone, not just the lopsided test-epitest ratio, so he's pretty ****ed.

this other racer, tyler hamilton, when he tested positive for blood doping he came up with all these crazy, idiotic excuses, like he he might naturally produce two strains of red blood cells because of a vanishing twin when he was in the womb... no i'm not making that up, and yeah it didn't work lol.

[Katelette81]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Bah!!!

LMFAO !!!!

Got a lil too desperate after that awful stage..
Funny how they have this stuff on hand, just in case LMAO!
and remarkable at how much it helped him in the next stage.

[Grappler13]

Do we know what type of synthetic test he was using? As I understand it, all of the AAS are based on test or share various attributes of natural test in different degrees. Long answer short: I know that test-e wrecks my cardio abilities and I hear that eq helps some with their cardio. When the testing body says synthetic test are we to assume test-e/test-c/ or prop only or would eq/tren/dbol, etc..........al fall under the synthetic test label. Just curious.

[perfectbeast2001]

I read somewhere that about 40% of elite cyclists "have asthma" and are prescribed clenbuterol by there private docs to treat it. Clen is rarely prescribed to asthma sufferers these days as there are safer meds on the market which are more effective for asthma treatment.

[Doc.Sust]

it happens in every sport, doesnt suprise me a bit

test definitely can't make you superman in endurance events. what i think happened was he was taking it during training (prolly patches) and when they drew blood for blood doping they didn't realize he had elevated test levels. i think they thawed the blood after stage 16 and put it back into him but oops it accidentally raised hi test levels too much.

[gritt]

Somethig seems to off here for just some simple overdosing....test is to long lasting for this to not be timed right.......
I wish the media woudl move on to something else for a change.......

The AAS issue is getting old......Whether Bonds roided or this guy did or not....he rode teh fastest and Barry hit the freakin balls out of the park....They still did the work and have the skill.....get over it ignorant world......

[Ufa]

That synthetic thing was a 'leak' from an unnamed source. Innocent
until proven guilty. This guy is a professional. He would not take something that would cause a negative test result. F the french.

[MrMent1on]

Goes to show you they bust who they want to bust and spare who they want to spare. (i.e. Lance Armstrong)

vanishing twin NO ONE EVER wants to fess up and admit it..besides giambi

[J.S.N.]

that doesn't make any sense. they test the yellow jersey wearer, the stage winner, and 2 randoms every stage. so yeah landis had a pretty good chance of being tested that day. armstrong got his fair share of tests and never failed any. it's not like it's good for the sport for landis to be tested positive after he won the tour. in fact it's the worst thing that every has happened to pro cycling.

[drummer6]

Lance Armstrong was one of the best ever, simply put. He would get tested a ridiculous amount of times......and never failed. Once word got out about Floyd, Tyler Hamilton, one of Lance's and Landis's former teammates starting to bitch and whine that Floyd should confess. Look just because he got busted for it doenst mean he had to try and mess up an already bad situation. Hamilton, in my opinion, was good but now he is just a little whining b*tch

Lance Armstrong is most tested human alive to date he was tested sevreal times a month during his carrer as a cyclist.

[copenhagen]

this is almost as bad as the chick that hopped in that car during a marathon and drove half way then got out and won!

[Doc.Sust]

so what synthetic test. did he test positive for?

[firmechicano831]

That was funny he said that his body was making to much testotarone or how its pronounced.

[Red Ketchup]

That was funny he said that his body was making to much testotarone or how its pronounced.

Nah that was his excuse for last week... this week he claims his test levels were 5x higher than normal because he was "dehidrated"...

Yeah... ok there....

Red

[drummer6]

i didnt know about the whole dehyrdrated excuse he used......what is he.....another Tyler Hamilton.....now im starting to doubt him which i hate to say because he rode with lance 2-3 years and he should know how the whole drug testing scene works..............if he did use some stuff......what an idiot

[Triple X]

dude, the guy is juiced. the end

[steve0]

so was a striped of the title ?.
