I wonder if he is going to rat everyone else out?

Holy cow.
:(
And now Valverde may be involved:

Crud. And other things that would just get *'d out.
Yeah....I really did not want to believe it, even when he left Disco.
Makes me think Bruyneel knew more than he was letting on.
Yeah - so how did he get to race le Tour when Basso & Ullrich did not?Quote:

And Valverde may have gotten a karmic end to the Tour for a reason.
Remember Simoni's "extraterrestrial" comments about Basso after the Giro? Simoni's not looking like nearly such a whiner anymore....
nope.....not at all. In fact, I think we have all been duped.Quote:

'Tis a question what Brunyeel knew and where he was in all this the past few months. And the rest of the Discovery team and management.
Remember David Millar 3 years ago? Confessed, did his 2 year stand down and came back just as good if not better last year. Not to mention older and wiser.
today he says he only "attempted" to dope - i dont think you can believe anything he says

Good grief! The lack of character shown in recent years in all professional mens sports is just shameful. Since doping and roids are now the norm maybe they should just welcome them with open arms and anyone stupid enough to do that to their body can compete. :mad:Quote:

i think they either need to separate the two or make penalties so severe that it discourages people altogether from doping. what's the harm in being on a 2 year suspension? what kind of point does that get across to others and children (the future of the sport)? - if you do something bad, illegal, and against the rules then you'll only have a slap on the hand suspension for a short period of time. i think that's a bad answer to a horrible epidemic problem.
That's the exact same thought I had.Quote:
