    Brailsford Should Stand Down

    I think what Millar hates is the fact that got found out. His rebirth is purely PR and ultimately political in its nature. Remember his and most other confessions are in my opinion, limited in their scope and honesty.

    Sean Yates

    A bit of a fudge really. Got to agree Mellow Velo, As much as I like the Hard Man of British cycling it kinda creates more questions than satisfying the doubters. I do think Brian Smith is now a shoe in for a DS job now. The Mail piece clearly (and Publicy) letting Brailsford know that...

    Media assault on Team Sky

    I think Frankel probably has more personality than Andy Murray. :D

    Radio 5

    Dont know if you have had this posted already. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01ngqxd Emma O'Reilly being very open. Sounds like she is at piece though. Very funny and jolly.

    Transfers and Rumours 2011 > 2012

    I heard from someone very close to the Team he has 100%. He signed for 2.8 Million after turning down 4 from Quickstep. I guess the support structure for him at Sky must me more appealing?

    Hog watch - Where's the Hog?

    I find it odd that he has been so quiet on the whole situation and I rather fancy he has been quizzed by the European authorities. I wonder if he has 'squealed' like the proverbial stuck pig. Just a thought.

    Kolo Toure tests positive (Football)

    Football Positive. Just seen this on the BBC. UK based Footballer fails a dope test. Quite uncommon in the Premier League. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_city/9413738.stm As yet, no specified product. How long before excuses are rolled out?

    Doping Ring in Girona + responses to Tondo's revelation

    +1 I would hope that the influance of Carlso Sastre has had something to do with it. Mind you I was a little surprised CS joined Mauro Gianetti at GEOX. Really hope he isn't run out of the sport for acting bravely.

    Riccò hospitalized for possible kidney ailment

    I agree, for all his flaws and chequered past he is still a fellow human being. Its easy to knock someone when they are down, but remember its not too long ago that we lost a flawed and ultimately neglected (By the right sort of people) with the untimely death of Marco Pantani. It strikes...

    Bassons: The most eloquent perspective...

    I think that is a great viewpoint. Bassons has it nailed down, Armstrong and he are poles apart. But if you ask me Bassons is the richest by far. More power to his elbow/legs.

    JV interview in Le Figaro

    Is this the closest to an out and out confession from JV? All the tainted DS in the sport are a plus not a negative? Surely not JV? While I believe you may have the best interests at heart but I wonder if all those wise DS's out there share that? The We are good people quote sounds like...

    Who would you prefer to be right now? Lance or Floyd.

    Floyd, As has been said, while he may do some bird for Lieing under oath he is no longer burdened with the double life and the stress involved. I think Armstrong believes he is untouchable. I believe he will be in denial for a long time. Money can buy most things but not piece of mind...
