Landis Test Positive for Doping

Update:

ESPN.com - CYCLING - Landis sample shows high and synthetic testosterone (http://sports.espn.go.com/oly/cycling/news/story?id=2539409)

"Floyd Landis was fired by his team and the Tour de France no longer considered him its champion after his second doping sample tested positive Saturday for higher-than-allowed levels of testosterone."

Cycling is officially going down the drain.

i kinda thought he was guilty right after the first announcement. he didn't really say "i'm not guilty" right away (no immediate strong denial of any kind), and his lawyers said they excepted him to be found guilty.

then came a plethora of (5-6) different crappy excuses. Maybe he is the victim, but with the history, his medical condition, and they way he's acted since being accused, it's a bit hard to believe he's completely innocent.

watch the video. the guy (John Eustice) explains how the ratios could be what they are and the testing and what Landis can do next.

I'm finding it hard to believe he's innocent, but we shall see.

I don't see it.

I think he kinda looks like Steve Zahn.

At least he's maintaining his innocence. If you're caught in a lie like that, just keep on saying it until it's true.

if someone could post landis pic next to Dale Earnhart jr., I think they look alot alike...

i agree on the junior thing. as far as landis, i think he is guilty. and maybe someone around here better check tmc, no way all those posts without alittle help from something artificial

ESPN had on a guy, probably a doctor of something or other, who was saying that it really wouldn't have made any sense for Landis to take one or two shots of testosterone in the middle of the race because it wouldn't really do much for him. Since he had passed tests earlier in the race this could mean that there was something out of the ordinary (besides cheating) going on with these tests.

One way or the other, I would think that if he were really innocent he would have come out from the get-go and gone insane trying to plead his case.
