Floyd Landis Fails Drug Test
From the New York Times, (you can probably find a similar article in every other news location) Landis Fails Drug Test After Triumph in Tour de France.
Please, someone tell me this is a mistake. Tell me that the test was wrong, or the treatments for the bad hip affected the test results.
Armstrong was always plagued with speculation he was doping, but tests never confirmed it. Now we have another american win the tour and doping rears it's ugly head, only this time it seems the test back up the claim.
The tour started out rocky with several of the top riders being expelled from the race because of doping allegations. Now that it's over, the saga continues. If when the dust settles Landis is found to have been doping, it will make me think twice before investing the time and emotion to be a fan of any rider.
