I say Great news again... I can't wait to see who else is named...any guesses???

So with all of these newest and greatest testings procedures in the sport, does anyone think that if LA does well in the upcoming TDF - that he did it with the support of drugs and was smart enough to get away with it...Me think not!

Some guys just can't help themselves can they? Along with the pressure to win, bike racing is a tough sport so I guess they do it to survive those long days in the saddle. Sucks though.

WHile the fight against doping helps the sport, the inability to provide timely testing and result reporting, IMHO, hurts the sport badly.

If spectators, fans, and sponsors can't rely on the results from day to day or even for weeks after and event, what's the point?

I want to know that the guy I saw win, actually won, at least in some timely fashion. To have competitors DQ'd in October from an event held in July makes me care less and less.

It's cross season. THAT'S real.
