Spain strikes again
He may be cleared for competition, but he still tested positive.
that's a relief.
The Spanish are the dirtiest athletes. This is just another effort to protect their house of cards from crashing down.
Yesterday called.
Kangaroo court
And................? What did it say?
I just can't believe it. I think all anyone needs to read is this article by the Science of Sport guys back in 2009.

Although those guys say that many factors could contribute to a great wide (such as wind conditions aiding the riders up the mountain), it still says that Contador rode faster up the mountain than any rider before him, and almost all of the names on the list have been either admitted or highly suspicious dopers.
In my mind, Contador absolutely is doping and this is an outrage. Kangaroo court is right.
Spain does not have an independent anti-doping agency. The same group tasked with promoting Spanish athletes and sports judged this case. Talk about conflict of interest.
