Ugh. Look, I waited until AFTER the Tour de France to even post on the event because it's so doped up. I wanted to be sure all was fine. And now it appears that TdF winner, American Floyd Landis, may have been testosterone doping.
The B sample needs to be tested to be sure, so it's unfair to call him guilty yet. But he has been suspended from his team and will be fired if the B sample is dirty.
I would love to see this be a mistake. I would love to find out that it was simply a surprising result to natural processes that came due to his horrible hip problems and efforts to relieve pain. But I'm not optimistic.
UPDATE: Landis responds on SI.
All this after Lemond's praise of Landis and chastisement of dopers. Wow. Yeah, let's hope it's a mistake.
Are you still doping?

Didn't know if you had seen this or not
