    Contador Blood Doped

    Ok just did a quick google search. There seems to be a bit of research into determining the plastizers in blood transfusions. Look at this: http://resources.metapress.com/pdf-preview.axd?code=ul260715xw164734&size=largest

    Slightly offtopic: Source CNA: How did you get the nickname ‘The Hog’? JB: (laughs) That's a good question. I guess when you win 9 Tours in 11 years, some people think you are hogging it from other teams. I get a good laugh from the nickname and in the end, as strange as it may sound...
