Dopers suck

[Jewbacca]

The Sky/Ineos success years have been unravelling hard.

It's no surprise. You can also look at the successes and form of various riders from the team over that era who left and have never been able to come close to replicating the same performance.

To be fair though, TESTOgel does sound like something you would take to help you get a boner..............

I've gone back to suspecting that they're all doping again....

Hah!  For sure.  Hilarious that the doc’s evidence amounted to “That guy over there can’t get a boner”!?  

(Edit:  I should have added that said guy then angrily testified “LIES!” and, by all accounts, stormed out.)

Most considerate of the doc though, his interest in his colleague’s boners.

Well it’s clear the Ineos investigation. Is no longer a soft issue

This "involuntary" rubbish is just that. Opened container is OK but a closed one not? Hang em high I say!

I don’t buy his excuse.

I suffer, every year at the change of seasons, with sinusitis. Salex, Iliadin and Vicks vapour rub in hot water (to steam) works like a charm. Iliadin is on the clean list, and is very easy to look it up.

Yeah I'm 100% with you. I'm an amateur old man and I'd know that this is gonna be illegal. Too convenient and way too predictable ....

Although I get that it appears cynical on the part of the rider to suggest contaminated supplement , it does happen and is always difficult to prove because most of the offending material has been distributed and consumed. There is also no guarantee that the retained sample at the manufacturer’s facility is fully representative of what went out of the door either by the very nature of the sampling process. It’s literally a needle from the haystack representing the haystack.

in addition, we may argue that why does it only happen to a professional athlete…? They must be doping right!?

Well  consider how much supplement is sold and to whom. Professional athletes are the most tested people but the smallest % of the population so there is the scenario where most of the contaminated sample is absorbed into sub4 hr Argust aspirants bloods streams where it will never be found even if they walked up to a WADA official and begged them to test.

this does not through healthy scepticism out of the window but it should provide some food for thought as the whale oil is ordered from Scamazon for those  pitch forks to be sharpened

what ever happened to good old salmeterol and lumont?

Seems like all roads lead back to testoserone and clenbuterol in this decade

No, he got his pills from a pharmacist in Durban.....
