STOLEN UNDERGROUND SPIES.

This just in from one of our top spies. It looks like three EPO
positives have come in from riders from the Health-Net team. The details
remain sketchy at the time, but I will check some other sources to verify if
this could be true.

Well, Brian, that doesn't really prove anything, doping-wise. Some
people are just naturally pimply. Oily skin, sunblock, work environments,
etc. Now, I'm not saying that masters don't dope. I don't *know* if they
do, but suspect some (or many) may. Just a suspicion on my part.

This is a perfect example of what I was saying before. Bill posted an
article from New Scientist that was at least somewhat scientific but Decanio
demonstrates that he just doesn't know what the hell he's talking about.

I'm not saying that he didn't see lots of drugs being used. But he really
doesn't have a clue about how to avoid detection and his ideas about turning
racing into an inqusition are rather pointless.

Believe it or not, the UCI's slow and steady progress is probably the best
way.

Testosterone is the best programme to use in preparation and also the
easiest to conceal. Last time anyone serious tested positive for testo
was....um....

If you consider that there's two Kiwis and one Canadian on that team,
and one just back after a "dodgy supplements" issue, that's cutting
quite close....

This site has been right on the money every time predicting these
before they are released.

This just in.......Spy 11 has reported from the field......."I read
that 6 people tested positive for EPO at Georgia: (the lists I've
found have changed, but it looks like it will be revealed officially
on the 19th)

Horner
McCartney (Hn)
Sayers (Hn)
Dominguez (Colavita)
Haedo (Colavita)
O'Neill (Colavita)
And Adam Bergman (Jelly Belly) tested positive a second time

Second-best indicator on the net...careful reading of John Lieswyn's CN
diaries...

The problem would be with McCartney, if this list is to be believed. If
these tests relate to TdG, then the results have been known about for a
while, but JM has been selected to go to the Olympics. In the current
climate, I find that hard to believe if a positive was in the works.

Unless of course you widen the conspiracy theory and believe that WADA
and IOC are out to totally humiliate and ruin careers by getting all the
positives on Olympic turf...

In American pro racing? He seems to be referencing the drug scene in the
USA. Money is a factor, but in my opinion, so is the desire to advance the
sport here in the USA. Any large scale controversy could hurt fragile
sponsorships or slow the momentum the sport has seen in the recent past.

Somethign is going on beacuse national federations seem to be catching
people suddenly. I think they or the UCI might be worried about
embarrssement at the Olympics.

Nowhere near definitive unless you work for WADA...

Hardly. Any time he says someone is strong, that's an implicit doping
indicator? Heck, I can just look at results, then... (the one exception
MIGHT be that "veins bulging" comment, but that's a stretch).

Bergman had some pretty amazing rides in Georgia so I
would not be surprised at all.

McCartney did too, and it hadn't struck me until now how
similar their histories are ie both made *huge* strides
in a short period of time.

If this plays out as advertised then there will be no
sweeping it under the rug.

If this plays out as advertised then we will know it WAS swept under
the rug. Nothing like postponing the media attention until after the
Games!

Interesting, as Nathan O'Neil didn't even race in Georgia.
