Contador doped

and now he is trying to blame it on "contaminated meat".

Strange.

A bronchialdilator at 400 times LESS than it's supposed to detect. And it can be found in meat.

Don't know what to make of it.

the big sports radio station in Dallas was making fun of Contador today. They played "Tainted love" and made up their own lyrics titled "Tainted Meat".

At this point, it is clear that the entire sport is a joke.

they just need to determine which sorts of enhancers they will allow.

It's sad because the actual exercise of cycling is fantastic. But the athletes are so driven to cheat, it's amazing.

it's due to the nature of the sport, where the margins are small, and the ability to gain an edge so crucial to a career. It can mean the difference between having a career or not.

Seems like everyone who has been at the top cheated to get there.

Based on my discussions with peloton fodder, even the guys at the back of the bus are cheating. The desire to just be a pro Tour cyclist is so great, that guys will destroy their bodies just to be in the group. The guys at the back of the bus whom I've discussed matters with, say every single rider is cheating, from last place to first place. In one way, they claim the playing field is level because nobody's cheating more than anybody else.

My clients are related to the developers of HGH, or make that discoverers. They said it was found feeding on a cancer inside a cow's stomach. And that anybody who would take the substance would have to be crazy.

My guess is that there is some kind of masking agent that Contador used, and the detection was related to a failure in his masking regimen.

When you see Contador blowing by Andy Schleck in the mountains, and then crushing in the TTs, sorry you know he is doping. At least Andy looks human, and that allows the possibility he is not doping.

There's also the argument he blood doped with tainted blood a la Landis.

Andy doped too. Armstrong is the only innocent one.

yeah, he self-transfused with some of his own blood, which was on the back end of his PED regimen, and was further diluted in his blood leading to the sudden appearance of the drug at low levels.

Take him out back and shoot him with the other lame horses.

When is Lance going to come out and defend him?

He didn't and won't but Bruyneel already has. Somewhere these guys get training on how to mask, how to blood dope and when to use packed blood from training, but some of these guys get tainted blood which reveals they cheated first during training and the blood doped by infusing their own blood from training. That's usually the real routine. Other than blood infusions to increase oxygen, I don't believe most of them are "cheating" during race season in terms of enhancers. The enhancers are availed during training to survive that.
