Ahhh too bad, too late for Santa to explain to his new/former teammate EPO is not worth the bother

Thanks

That must have been from June

Has it only come out now, 5 months to process?

Bye Mauro.

Wow, that was quick

 

[neineinei]

Wow, that was quick

Yeah, he wasn't even back from the privious ban. It ended 2 November.

 

[Catwhoorg]

*waves bye bye*

Should be an 8 years or more ban.

 

[classicomano]

Haha .. hahaha .. HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA.

 

[neineinei]

I hope the people who took care of him last time he was down and out keeps an eye on him this time too.

 

[the sceptic]

Haha .. hahaha .. HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA.

I don't think this guy is any worse than the rest of pro cycling. He is just getting scapegoated. Just wait if he says something bad about the new generation he will get threatened by Cookson.

never forget:

Bye Mauro.

Santambrogio just pulled a Ricco 2.0 - he was about to be given a second chance & gets popped inmediately.....

Ciao Mauro

“With us, Santambrogio won’t just be a rider. Given his history, he’ll also become a champion of the right against doping,” said Amore & Vita manager Ivano Fanini.

Well, I suppose the first sentence is correct.

 

[burning]

LMAO is the only reaction that I could even possibly think.

Edit: It is interesting that a few riders got caught for GW501516, but looks like there is still no test for AICAR.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Hard to even feel the slightest empathy for this clown.
So many other people in need of support.

Look, the tests are a joke. If you manage to get popped twice in such a humorous fashion, you're either overdoing it, or you're a total moron.

In neither case are you being scapegoated, and in the former case you *are* actually worse than most other dopers.

 

[LaFlorecita]

I hope the people who took care of him last time he was down and out keeps an eye on him this time too.

Agreed. Would be no surprise if he fell into an even worse depression this time.

It is clear that psychological help would be a huge help for many riders. They are psychologically dependant on doping. No surprise they return to their old habits.

I agree with the sceptic, I don't think Santambrogio is any worse than the others. I guess he was targeted and did not have an expensive doctor carefully monitor his doping program.

obviously payback for talking to circ or whatever the heck that thing is called

obviously

 

[jens_attacks]

pretty much like sinkewitz. well done uci...

c'mon there are like 3 or 4 positives for testosterone in the last 20 years or so lol. no one can be that dumb to be caught for that. this is pure revenge mob style

 

[Big Doopie]

obviously

yup. obviously.

totally obviously.



how about a mediocre rider who knows (from factual results) that they cannot make it as a pro without the sauce?

how about a rider who is not only physically reliant but also psychologically reliant on doping?

but that would be completely off the wall hypotheses... obviously.

much much easier to believe that the uci under new management is punishing the riders - who they are also encouraging to speak to the independent commission - for doing just that.

oy.

obviously.

Or the UCI wants you to get popped. I don't think anyone can be this dumb.

Of course not, otherwise teams like Saxo and Sky would start showing positives. Can't have that.

Yeah, obviously.....

 

[Netserk]

Given all the years on Lampre and BMC without any positives, it seems some riders are too dumb to handle their hot sauce on their own without any medical supervision.
