TNT1 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Posted June 19, 2012 Are you implying that cyclists are poorly educated? Um, are you new here? Read some of the drivel we post...
Bianchisti Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) Might have to do a follow up if this goes tits up for Mamobola Edited June 19, 2012 by Androni Giocattoli ChUkKy 1
timbrink Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Is there a link besides a Tweet where one can get the full story? Which substance? Was the B sample tested yet? Is the athlete contesting the ruling?Hopefully not a repeat of the Caster Semenya debacle... http://www.health24.com/news/Fitness/1-911,75139.asp
Clinton1 Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Ya, just now a tweet from Sky news, telling us of a tweet they received of the earthquake in Melbourne. Although that one I've seen pics of, and spoken to mates in Oz, and it really happened. Yip, not denying the fact that it's true but just don't like the drips and drabs initial reporting on Twitter from journalists. It's all about breaking the news now. By the time the actual facts come out the story is old news and no one cares about the details.

Oh, I agree 1000000000000% I work in IT, and spend my life online, and I truly detest what this new digital world is doing to us.
Clinton1 Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 It really makes little sense if it was not accidental. This chap has finished second and seventh in the last two years so he must be fully aware that they test the top 10 finishers for banned stimulants. So unless he felt he would not finish in the top 10 then why would he risk it? At the conclusion of the Comrades 2012, SAIDS conducted 20 doping control tests, which included the top 10 finishers in the men and women's categories

Clinton1 Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 He was tested for methylexaneamine which had two Boks in trouble before. Whether the two Springbok players who tested positive for the banned stimulant methylexaneamine used it intentionally or not, the fact is that little is known about this substance. Further explanation of the substance here: http://www.health24.com/fitness/Diet_Supplements/16-481-513,59697.asp
Wyatt Earp Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Gee, apply that to Contador and the clenbuterol?Quite difficult to do so.The hilarious thing about the Clen bunny was the cover up lie.
Clinton1 Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Gee, apply that to Contador and the clenbuterol? To tell you the truth I am not that into professional road cycling... but do those guys not do other weird things like "filtering/aerating" bloods and all sorts? Not sure that can be accidental.
TNT1 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Posted June 19, 2012 Quite difficult to do so.The hilarious thing about the Clen bunny was the cover up lie. The hilarious thing for both this and Contador, is the "accidental" ingestion approach. FFS! Take responsibility for your life morons. Stop expecting us to believe that professional athletes don't know what they put in their bodies.
TNT1 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Posted June 19, 2012 Not sure that can be accidental. Like I said, any professional athlete who expects us, the paying viewers, to accept a n "accidental ingestion" excuse, deserves derision and ridicule.
Pinarello1 Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 This cannot be true as I am sure I heard somewhere that only ROAD cyclist dope.

Stop expecting us to believe that professional athletes don't know what they put in their bodies.Contador has set the standard for others to follow.But he won't be the first Comradee to have his win stripped from him.
LeTurbo Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Why don't they just standardise all the *** you can put in your body? Every athlete gets his monthly allocation of methylexaneamine, clenbuterol, etc. Levels the playing fields, the mountains, the valleys ...
