Either Floyd is one helluvan actor or he has not knowingly used testosterone. He really seems like he has no idea how his samples showed up positive. He brought up four possible reasons for the results and he's leaning towards the fourth of those which is tampering.
Greg
I read somewhere that he has proof that the testers knew who the samples were from. If this is indeed the case (the testers knew), then the tests are bogus, if for no other reason than the lab violated their own protocol. What possible reason would the people doing the actual tests have to know who the urine is from if there wasn't something funny going on.
He should take that lie detector test that he was offered. If he passed that it would be a big plus on his side.

If he doped, then lying is the best policy. If he fessed up then the next question would be "Who gave you the stuff?". Landis would then have 2 choices: 1. Answer that question and all that follow becoming a major snitch like [censored] Voet or 2. refuse to answer thereby becoming a publicly known as someone covering up for doping in cycling.
If he doped then lying is the best policy as long as he does not find himself under oath, subject to perjury.

The lab definitely knows. The actual personnel doing the testing should not know. And I agree that the lab itself should not know.
Anyone here receive a fax results from a WADA accredited lab? If you're so anonymous...then how do they get your name on the cover sheet? It's conceivable that the sport orgs convey identity information after testing, but there's still a time span where the results and the names are in the same lab facility. Also, my testing wasn't for cycling so maybe there are different protocols for transmitting info between UCI and WADA (I'm not going to spend the time to look it up due to a BM).
