well i know the PML ( professional marble league ) has made an officail statement saying that they are putting in place a 0 tolerance rule for any of thier members who test positive for any steriods - the president of the PML has said it took several years to clean up the sport and he wont allow it to be tarnished with the rumors of doping and proformance enhancing substances

the tests figure a ratio of the two types of testasterones. regular and EP. the normal ratio is 1:1ep. an athlete can normally build it up to 2:1ep up to 4:1ep, but the cyclist commission max is 4:1ep, down from 6:1 a few years back.

The rampant abuse was pretty obvious... those guys had some massive thumbs.

The man has a busted hip and no normal person would withstand that type of pain especially a cyclist. He wanted to finish the race & I think he used the extra testosterone to help ease that pain. Any other type of pain killing drug would have disqualified him automatically.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Actually, Landis had an exemption from UCI to get cortisone injections for his hip condition.

Doesn't mean he didn't use something else too, but I hope not.

I'll wait to see what the B sample shows.
