Until today Contador hadn't entered a Grand Tour and not won since
2005 (31st in the Tour). That was a string of 6 consecutive
victories, 2007 Tour, 2008 Giro & Vuelta, 2009 Tour, 2010 Tour,
2011 Giro.

Wonder if he will be sufficiently annoyed now to attempt the Vuelta in
September ...

And the kangaroo CAS agree.
For technical reasons the hearing has been postponed till 2140.

No, Contador already said he is satisfied with a Giro win this year.
I would like to see AC enter some fall races. In a strange fateful way
it is good that AC lost the TDF and spared cycling another disgraced
TDF winner. AC's doping case should have been settled before the start
of the TDF.

He should DQ himself before the official determination?
If cycling wants a clean image, they should work on their image,
just as FIFA, FIA, MLB, NBA, and NFL do.

Cycling needs to implement 1st strike lifetime ban. The appeals
process needs to much faster.
UCI needs to needs to implement a first offense lifetime ban. There
also needs to a be a expedited appeals and sentencing process. One
year is much is long a time to resolve a doping case.
The only way that would fly is if the sport took dope testing as
seriously as other major sports like tennis and football. Sports
that are not run by retards don't have these problems.

The importance of being Randall.
Well campers, another July is drawing to a close and it's time to
start thinking about our awards for the year. I think we would have a
hard time picking a more deserving person than Randall for RBR's 16th
Annual Mr. July award. His brief entry above should cinch the
voting. There's enough fodder in those five almost-sentences for a
thesis. A quick review.
He was so concerned with brevity he left out letters.
Changing the spelling of the name from the subject to the body of the
post (always one of my favorites).
His understated mastery of stating the obvious.
His confusing courageous for overreaching.
His rosy cheeked optimism about a whining doper.
Etc.
Well that's my nomination. Please have all nominations submitted by
midnight on July 31st.
The winner will be feted at our traditional If It's Tuesday Who Got
Indicted? dinner dance.

Don't mess with Randall or he'll sic a badger
on you, and that badger is CRAZY.

Dunno, I think FAT must be a contenda too. It probably depends on who
has the better program.
FAT for sheer ingratitude. FAT criticizes the wit
of his corespondents while showing not even half as much.
Tied on top posting count.

In my mind AC has simply been responding to the charges.
