since it would require the CAS to reverse a previous decision I do not believe that he will be sanctioned. At that low level of the banned substance there's just too many questions

seems to me he made a rookie mistake and fell into the trap. lick your wounds and learn from your poor tactics

Bartoli and VDB trading blows in LBL (Bartoli went way too hard in Fleche). Pantani, pick something... the 1999 Giro was pretty absurd. Johan Meseeuw in the 2000 PR. Cancellara in RvV 2010. thats all I can think of off the top of my head right now.

philippe gilbert couldnt even be an option?

Does anyone think the UCI is overstepping their boundaries by not allowing Valverde to appear at the presentation; citing his suspension? I thought they could only ban you from racing. They are really getting to a quasi-government level where sport governing bodies have no business.

because it isn't! because AC has to play the politics. Look I've posted various links in various threads about there being an allowable amount of clen in meat. and if it is remotely true... then the test is inherently flawed when did I ever claim his sample didn't have clen in it? and when we...

of course he isn't clean!!! but is this enough to prove it? remember we are talking about fellow human's jobs! if they wanna cheat at their job... let's punish them on something more concrete

so you claim I have a bias... then say AC's positive should serve as an example of the flawed methods? get out of here

meth will just make you ride in circles and think you're doing something

yes i am... ANYTHING THAT IS IN THE FOOD STREAM SHOULD HAVE A FLOOR. I feel bad for Li Fuyu as well. I'm not going to apologise for not looking further into it when he tested "positive" thou. they're humans just like us. and obviously I'm going to take a greater interest in someone prominent

i bet it does ok so what does your post prove? that maybe it IS flawed. and as much as I dislike Lance or AS; I'd still hate to see either of them popped in such a ridiculous way

where's the article indicate that he was micro-dosing clen?

i know in the states you are not allowed to process livestock that dies in the field so yes, a therapeutic dose near slaughter is not out of the question... and probably fairly likely

show me a link that supports your argument. and linking it to a non-validated test then some implying isn't convincing enough for me

BECAUSE THERE ARE ALLOWED AMOUNTS OF CLEN IN LIVERSTOCK!!! how many times do I have to repeat myself. with that in mind; how can there not be a floor for the test when every meat eater will have SOME in their system at some/many/all point(s).
