Rambo shot down by UCI

[msjett]

Another rider from a smaller team getting busted...big fish only get busted with bio passport violations, small fish get busted with actual positives to a drug...what's wrong with this picture??

I think it sucks for Rabotini, as he is probably just doing what everyone else is.

Danilo Deluca was busted for EPO from the same team last year around Giro time - he is not a small fish, but he was on a small team.

The picture painted is that for the most part, the guys earning more money have more money to spend on not testing positive, but the BP is managing to find them out, but only after an extended period of time.

another good guy goes down ...and he liked to attack too

uff the memories of rambo,ponzi and finetto destroying the field sometime in the spring at least i hope the other two were more careful

Mauro F actually seems to have a few brains about him, he should be fine.

Maybe Pirazzi next.

Deluca is in a league of his own...really...how many times did he get busted? 2, 3 or more?

If the big guns get caught it is usually after retirement...I think that this shows how cut throat the sport is and the lengths riders go to, to get a bigger pay cheque or get to a bigger budget team for that pay cheque and protection.

From the same team Deluca, Santambrogio and now Rabotini...someone shows these fellas how to dope...and the team managers/owners show faux outrage that their riders do this when they get caught.

It's at this point I am starting to feel real sorry for some of these small fish...and start praying some big fish fry(pardon the pun)
