    Doping in XC skiing

    Re: Re: Are you suggesting he had handled this medicine box for 30 years or are you implying that he would have a mindset of "every medicine is the same, I have seen them all already"? Combining your two statements can now be summarized to "He might not had seen the front since the packs have...

    Doping in XC skiing

    The first table are tests taken at the sport center in his own town. I'm guessing he wasn't there a whole lot during the peak of his career. While I agree that these tests aren't 100% proof of him being clean, I still think this is the way to go. Increase the transparency.

    Are past dopers credible?

    Well if you break it out of context ofcourse you are right. But if you have seen the interviews and been following the sport for some time you must agree that their current statement seems much more plausible than the whiskey drinking and twin story... It's more than just the statement of...

    Are past dopers credible?

    There is a difference between a man being credible and his story being belivable. Sure they are feeding us garbage right now but if they would confess and explain everything I would most likely believe them then. We don't see these men as credible because we pretty much know that they are...

    Are past dopers credible?

    I wasn't saying that you would ever dope. I was merely saying that most of us would probably react in the same way in that situation, being caught that is. Most of us would never be in that situation ofc, but if we were... Calls for a bit imagination I know. But in my view of the world that...

    Poor Jan

    True. However I would imagine that living a lie and being a fraud surely takes its toll on a man. I'm not saying thats the case here but that might be a possible reason. I have always liked Jan. I think there is a large probability that he will actually write that book or at least tell it...
