Nothing we could agree to put in a Reasoned Decision.
But as ever my mind remains open to the possibilities and the argument.
And 13 years ago there was nothing that existed against Lance that had been used against Festina.
So you would have had to conclude, just as you do above, that there is no reason to believe Lance dopes, even though you remain open to the possibility.
Afterall Lance hadn't been caught with a team member driving blood bags accross the border. So therefore there was no similarity between the 2 right?
That's why its dumb to simply look at the most recent major doping scandal and see if the pieces of the puzzle fit exactly.
Froome has been caught lying about the disease he claims inhibited his early career and lying about ghost trips to Africa to treat it when his own doctor is on record saying that is not how the disease is treated.
Sky have been caught with 2 doctors who doped riders on other teams.
But neither of these pieces were used against Lance, therefore they can't be used as evidence at all right?
