<< Oh, and congrats to Lance. I didn´t follow it much this year though.
And if anybody wants to know why. Take a look here (it german). It seems like 3rd overall Rumsas was on drugs. Stuff that can´t be found through testing. Just what I thought. Still he lost nearly 10 mins on Lance. So someone who is on drugs got beaten by someone who´s clean? No way, I don´t buy it. They all have talent. And when the talent level is nearly the same, the influence of drugs in endurance sports can be pretty high.
There´s no way a clean world class athlete beats another world class athlete who does drugs by that much. Maybe Lance could be just as good as others if he was clean and the others were not, but he can´t be THAT much better, unless he does drugs himself.
The point: they are all on drugs. And cycling is in a very sad state. >>

This is chicken comment. You don't know that for a fact, so why propose it. Is tiger on drugs, was jordan on drugs,
is shaq on drugs. It's just BS.. If you have some facts, trot 'em out, if not quit besmirching someones reputation
because you are jealous of their committment and accomplishments.
