I'm thinking that Ned Beattie's character from Deliverance would dig Maxim.

We have women athletes who grew a beard, and now we have male athletes who look feminine? Is estrogen a PED?

Maxim is one of those guys from the "all new" Astana who was on the team last year. You know, the one that got thrown out of the Tour.

TDL, last time I checked estrogen was not a PED unless you want to build cup size.

huboon....yeah, I thought he was one of the "born again" Astana riders.

Estrogen is/has been used as a PED AFAIK. When Jesus Manzano had those "reveal all" interviews after being fired by the Kelme team he listed about 20 or 30 PED's in use, which included Neofertinon, a drug that stimulates ovulation and estrogen producton. Don't ask me what its performance benefits were/are for guys. I think Doctor.House has mentioned estrogen or estrogen stimulators as being an enhancer for other PED's.

"Facetious" is a thunderism now. Up there with "extemporise" and "cognitive dissonance" and "vituperative"...

Interesting. So, it is really possible that some people unwittingly develop some feminine characteristics...

Being a hermaphrodite is difficult enough without people like you discriminating against them in public...

Havent seen any of today's stage yet but maybe Nick Nuyens will give it a go. He finished way off the pace yesterday. Is he tired after the Classics or just allowing a nice big time gap so that the top teams will allow him to go on the attack?
