[QUOTE="MaddSkillz, post: 1961024, member: 1159"] There existed no test for EPO usage for most of Lance Armstrong's career. Thus there is no way he could have "tested positive." There were 6 samples from 1999 that were retested that belonged to Armstrong after the test was developed in 2005 that turned up positive for EPO. Lance's hematocrit levels from his recent return to the TdF are indicative of blood doping. There exists no test to prove a person injected their own blood... Only indicators of it. Lance's number are very suspicious and the lab geeks who know more about this stuff than you or I believe he blood doped during his recent comeback. Individually, you may be able to explain each instance away but together they paint a picture of cheating. And if you believe people want to risk everything they have by falsely testifying before a grand jury and risking perjury because they have something against Armstrong, I'm sorry, but I think that's a huge cop-out. Do you know the penalty for perjury? It can be prison time... These racers have families and children. You think they'd really have interest in colluding and making all this up with such a great risk because they simply don't like the guy? Sorry, I don't buy that. [/QUOTE]
