I love the Tour de France. I don’t know why but the last five years I have fallen in love with it. The intrigue, the etiquette, the sheer magnatude of the race. This years Tour was amazing. First they dump a bunch of leading cyclists out the back door at the last minute claiming blood doping, and now they challenge Floyd Landis’ win. OLN does an excellent job of bring the tour to the television. I love their comentators. But what are they thinking having a poll that says: “Did Landis do it?” That’s it. What is it? Yes he did it, he won the tour! Maybe he did it … used testosterone? Or maybe he didn’t. How can I answer that question? I have to assume what it means. Come on OLN, do a better job. Say what it is. I happen to think that he did not dope with testosterone or any other banned substance. Why would he? As Bob Roll says in todays top story on OLNTV.com, is it even physiologically possible to go from a negative test one day to such a positive test the next day?
