I have no idea if this is related to Lance and the "samples consistent with manipulation" but it is interesting nonetheless...
"Travis Tygart, head of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, a member organization of WADA, said independent oversight is crucial to an effective antidoping program. "Outside the context of any specific situation or sport, we all know that it's awfully difficult if not impossible to both promote and police your own sport," he said."
Ugh, this fool. Yes, only Travis Tygart, attorney and CEO of USADA is capable of policing all sports. Everyone else is incapable and unqualified.
There is a big difference between independent testing labs managing samples and providing results to higher authorities. But, USADA has decided it is the highest authority and above all rules, and laws.
WADA is good. The concept of the USADA is good. The CEO attorney trying to turn the USADA into a giant super-business operating as a non-profit, that is the problem.

No, you are wrong. That huge sum Lance Armstrong paid to the UCI is proof that a sport cannot properly policy itself.
Same with the attempted cover-up of the Contador-positive.
Corrupted international sport organizations need better supervision.
The black&white way you spun it against Tygart shows your agenda.
0/10
No, you are wrong. That huge paycheck attorney Tygart takes from the USADA as fees is proof that the USADA cannot properly conduct itself.
Same with the attempted cover-up of the Armstrong-negative testing files shredded by the USADA.

The people on this board who really know the sport say that your hero has been juiced ever since he was 19.
The letter went on to detail the cyclist's testosterone-epitestosterone results from 1991 to 1998, with one missing season: 1997, the only year during that span in which Armstrong didn't compete. Three results stand out: a 9.0-to-1 ratio from a sample collected on June 23, 1993; a 7.6-to-1 from July 7, 1994; and a 6.5-to-1 from June 4, 1996. Most people have a ratio of 1-to-1. Prior to 2005, any ratio above 6.0-to-1 was considered abnormally high and evidence of doping; in 2005 that ratio was lowered to 4.0-to-1.
What a bitter pill is must be for your whole yellow wristband crime family that Lance gets nailed by a new test during his comeback like this? Floyd probably would have wrenched on some teams' bikes that summer for as little as $30K too?
Source for the T-E results ?
You are nothing but a minion in the upcoming defamation of Mr. Armstrongs inconveninces du jour.
Oh my. Being called a minion by a troll.
It is "inconvenients du jour."
Back to the reported 500-600 tests that lance says he has passed:
His USADA athlete test history lists 2 tests. Note that this includes tests that other agencies may have conducted at USADAs request, such as if they requested the Spanish agency to test him while he was training there (although that number is not broken out separately). The highest number of tests in a year was 6. You can search this for yourself here:

I have not figured out if other anti-dopoing agencies offer this or not, perhaps somebody with better language skills can check these sites:

Don Caitlin is the source.
I might not speak your language fluently, but I see through your intentions perfectly.
Apparently WADA has a searchable database of all results but this system, called ADAMS is not publicly available.

I presume you meant 29 total tests by USADA? That's the number I've found on the link. "Most tested athlete ever," yet he's not even the most tested cyclist in the U.S.!
The reports that I can access from the WADA Adams system are only aggregate reports. They show that cycling carried out 56 Out of Competition tests in 2011, 96 OOC tests in 2010, 91 in 2009. Can't find any tests beforehand or that. That is limited to out of competition tests and does not give any breakdown by athletes, so I can't say how many of those tests might be of Lance Armstrong.

Yes, 29 total tests by USADA, must have been a typo.
According to this report Lance says he was subject to 24 out of competition tests between when he announced his comeback in 2008 and the date of the report on March 17, 2009. According to the ADAMS database the UCI only conducted 91 out of competition tests in all of 2009, so that claim looks pretty unlikely.
Sorry, forgot to attach the actual report:
sloppy lawyers touted:
If he is still on the "juice" then why not let him compete and Kona and nail him once and for all. But, you don't want that happening. The results might disprove your cast-in-stone belief. The results might confirm what you have known all along. You need a new result to figure out what the truth might be. Why don't you want that?
Boy I REALLY can't believe that you went here? Team Armstrong has been playing with a stacked deck for so long now that they just don't even think about stuff like this ahead of time any longer!
Did you REALLY want them all to know that Lance currently OWNS part of the WTC and gets to write his own drug tests there.
Like NO DRUG TEST AT ALL when Lance just won in Panama? Because the "ruling body" is also the promoter and pretty much a straight-up eToys-style Pump & Dump operation too. One that was counting on Armstrong to get them to the Pay Window in a BIG hurry too.
OF COURSE YOU WANT TO SEE HIM "TESTED" AGAIN IN KONA? You might want to backdate another corticosteroid prescription too? Geeesh!
Sometimes I wonder if your supervisors are paying very close attention to your work here?
Then again, to be fair about it you probably never ran interference for a guy this dirty for this long before either?
{B} WTC is owned by a PE group who want to expand it greatly, sell it, then pocket a bunch of cash.
They hired Messick, a big name in sports, they then bought a group of races in Australia. They then made the big mistake of getting into bed with Armstrong
It is too bad they banned him. I was looking forward to him messing up that sport too.
(Cyclingnews Forums)
...Armstrong announced his goal was to compete in the Oct. 13 Ironman World Championship in Kona, Hawaii.
Simultaneously, Armstrong's Livestrong foundation unveiled a partnership with the Ironman series that included fundraising for the foundation and Ironman's sponsorship of Livestrong events. Since then, Armstrong has competed in five half-Ironman events and has won the past two, in Florida and Hawaii. But under WTC qualifying rules, in order to be among the 50-man professional field at worlds, he must compete in a full Ironman event by the end of August, along with achieving a high-enough world ranking.

No surprise there at all.
That's pretty much the same business relationship that Lance had going on with the UCI for years.
Maybe he still did right up until last week?
Article in WSJ on Luis Garcia Del Moral:
Only Landis is willing to go on the record, but others are talking, which leads me to believe they are talking to other reporters, too, and we will likely know a lot more soon.
here is an older article (2009) explaining what "test results consistent with manipulation" might mean:
