Just a matter of time before the inquiry absolves him of all blame,
regardless of evidence. Too much at stake here to have Contador be
banned and lose his TdF title.
Brad Anders
He has to lose the TfF title. Blame isn't relevant, if it
was in his system it doesn't matter how it got there.
So he loses the title, then he skates.
Fred Flintstein
Well, we really won't know until we hear moo-- I mean more, will we?
--D-y
I retract my initial statement that Contador would likely get three months
and lose his title. Alberto's going for broke, and is going to lose
everything. The title and two years. The positive side is that gives him *3*
virtual wins without having to compete in two of them. Plus another virtual
win when Astana wasn't allowed in the 'Tour. He's closing in fast on Greg.

Dumbass -
LemonD has at least 40 virtual wins. He's got the biggest VO2 max right?
Whomever has the biggest VO2 max gets the win.
thanks,
Kurgan. presented by Gringioni.
It's rumored there are chickens in Benelux with higher VO2s then
Lemond.
Pigeons actually.

Is there a category for "unearned" wins? Pereiro and perhaps Schleck?
Maybe even Jan will be able to join the club.

If you're looking for birds with a really high VO2max, you've got to
go with the hummingbird, > 500 ml/kg/min.
Or Emma Pooley.

But they're clean just like Lemond. The Belgian pigeons however are on
some good shit. In fact Contador should have claimed he ate some Belgian
pigeon instead of Spanish beef.
Van der Poel already tried that one. http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/15.01/dopingexcuses.html
What about Peruvian candies? Nah, too ludicrous.
well put
I already reported Contador's doping back in August:

Yes, old news.
Hence the term "update" - referring to the WADA report.

dumbass,
somehow contador's manager and almost everyone on his team was
implicated in puerto - so that part isn't surprising.
but i would not have guessed that he would get popped for trace
amounts of clenbuterol.
Strychnine? I did not know anyone thought it was performance enhancing.
Wikipedia verifies that:
