Or perhaps they've looked into all the others and only Astana's syringes are suspicious. Since the UCI have all but admitted they gave Astana preferential treatment during the race I'm sure Boss Hog felt absolutely confident that they could dump whatever they liked without it getting into the wrong hands.
its not that theyve looked at all syringes and astanas where suspicious.. its that astanas where not dumped into the provided medical waste bins, but normal bins... its got nothing whatsoever to do with the UCI...
to be honest this is just yet another pile of BS coming from one camp or the other.. the french say this, the french say that, astana say this, lance tweets that... who cares...
as someone else has said, my guess is there is nothing wrong, so they are just doing the "ooh astana put syringes in the bin" to set toungues going, testers choose to have a cup of coffee at the astana hotel "ooh astana where tested late"... lance has a shower and the tester signs the paperwork to say all was satisfactory "ooh.. we screwed up the test but lance was deliberately delaying..."
if one side or the other has evidence, then put up or shut up.. if they dont, shut the hell up, cos the only thing getting damanged by lances tweeting, the french press mongering, and the uci's incompetance is CYCLING!
and yes.. i know many people here would see lance out of cycling, see astana out of cycling, but lets face it when lance and astana and the shack or gone, people will just start moaning about rabo, or liqigas, or sky, or brad wiggins, or cavendish.. with astana gone, cycling may be better, but it will still be a long way from perfect..;;
