Maybe true about Riis, but he and his team are much better off having come clean, regardless of motive.Bro Deal said:Riis only fessed up because he was days away from being outed by the german investigation. He had no choice.
How happy will the ASO be if Vaughters comes out and says, "I'd like to talk about what I did on Postal but then the embarassment to the ASO will prevent my team from being selected for the TdF."? Anything along that line will embarrass the ASO or the UCI or whatever almost as much as an actual admission.
The ASO or UCI will not be embarrased by any personal admission of Vaughters, and if they think so they are foolish. They've already been embarsssed and continue to be by their own actions, not by anyone else. That's what is so juvenile about the current situation. If Vaughters has a valid reason for not answering the questions, then he should clearly state it, or answer the question. Otherwise, he should quit promoting himself and team as the paragon of anti-doping virtue.
