It seems that I was unfortunately right when I said yesterday that Vino was doped. Damn! Now Klöden and Kaschechkin are gone too.
Furthermore, a German newspaper has claimed that Contador is somehow involved from that scandal last year.
Och that bloody doping! I guess it leaves the race more open now, at least when it comes to the last spot on the podium. |

Yes, that's what I was talking about when I said that Vino was doped. The whole Astana team is out *sigh*
Blood doping is nothing new, and he's just stupid thinking he could get away with it. |

| Yes and EPO helps a lot of people too, as long as it's not used in sports! |

| As you can see on Wikipedia, it helps kidney patients, among others, cos it's basially a hormone produced by the kidneys. |

I know, i was watching the highlights and it flashed up. I didn't know whether to be disgusted, distraught or indifferent. It's a shame. What's this about Contador? :oS

Apparantly, he had a connection with Fuentes, that doctor who also had blood samples from Ullrich and Basso. But I haven't read the article, they just referred to it in a news story I saw today.
I don't know what to think either. Was he just so desperate that he took the chance or do the others do it as well without getting caught? Rasmussen pointed out today that he'd been tested 14 times in this tour alone, and they were all negative. But that doesn't mean he doesn't use some kind of doping they can't trace yet, or what?
I really hope that the doping sinners are exeptions, but maybe I'm just too gullible. |

Nope, never done anything involving ice! Did dancing as a kid, but now I just do step which is a bit like dancing; you've got basic steps and varations :o) |
