Landis, Tour De France Champ, Testing Positive..?

[schillingouttheks]

Floyd Landis, the American who won the '06 Tour De France, tested positive for high testosterone levels. This means that he could have had an illegal performance enhancing drug in his system which helped him cheat his way to victory. If this is true, it would be a "dark day not only for cycling, but for all of sports."

Like the article states, if he indeed cheat to win, can we ever trust anyone again?

Whoops, can a mod move this to Other Sports?

Justin Gatlin tested positive a few months back for testosterone, as just said on ESPNEWS. When they said breaking news, I was like, holy s*** and ran to the TV. I was disappointed.

what else is new? An american wins, and guess what, is a stoids user... were you guys expecting him to win cleanly, and no one say anything??

Hes got a high amount of testosterone naturally.. You seen the package on the guy?

 

Looks like Yeszir at a free Dennys buffet..

No, I wasn't disappointed by the drugs, I don't care. I was disappointed the breaking news wasn't a trade.

The French tour officials are only suspicious because this so-called 'testosterone' is completely unknown to them.

I don't know about any of you, but Landis looked really unconvincing on that podium. Of course, within a day, he's got synthetic testosterone found. Color me not-surprised.
