When all the rubbish with Lance Armstrong was going on, I notice several names in this report all going on about how he was a dissapointment and a cheat, (all with no proof I might add) I guess what comes around goes around.
Glad these guys have been caught, hypocrites. Bet the European wont make a big deal over these guys like they did Armstrong

Welcome to the economic reality of sport

It makes you doubt a winner of a race sometimes.  ::) They are always making new records, true it is due to better tracks, clothing, equipment etc, but I wonder how many records are by drugs?

Wow, I heard about that earlier today, but Basso too?

Pity, they were some real contenders this year.

I knew the first post-Lance tour was going to be exciting.  I didn't know it was going to be this exciting.  I'm glad the teams decided to take the high road and exclude their implicated riders, it shows the teams are committed to sportsmanship even if the riders themselves aren't.

They had plenty of proof.  After all, he was faster than they were and they were cheating, therefore he must have been cheating, right?



I didn't think any American riders really had a shot this year, but now they certainly do.  It's too bad it had to come as a result of something like this though.  It looks like the first tour in years that wasn't a foregone conclusion is even moreso now!
