Millar seems to be so open to implicate himself. His admission and the evidences against him were so easily extracted its as if he is committing a career suicide. The 2 syringes found in his apartment were hidden in a book and his reason for keeping them sounds too superfluous to be true. And now the plot thickens... he has implicated Dr. Jesus Losa as the source of the drugs he first used 3 years ago. Dr. Losa is the team doctor of Euskatel-Euskadi and Iban Mayo is a top tour contender in this year's Tour de France. I have a feeling there's more to come.

Hmm interesting - especially when you consider the two recent temporary suspensions to Euskatel riders - was it Zubeldia prior to the Dauphine and another rider prior to the tour due to high hemocrit levels.

As BOB DYLAN once said Millar is just 'another pawn in their game'

People think that it's a shame that a big name like Millar should have been busted using drugs, but occasionally, someone is only a big name because of them. This may be the case with Millar, as it was with the Olympic sprinter Ben Johnson. Maybe he wouldn't have amounted to much in cycling if he hadn't doped.

Remember how strenuous it was to listen to David Millar's pathetic denials and ad hominem rants directed at the media and his Cofidis teammate Philippe Gaumont? Millar was a clean World Champion.

David has had lots of company since his great days of what turned out to be Over-Zealous Whoppers.

To be clear:
Jealous liars do not condone doping. Zealous Liars are dopers. Doping apologists deny any specific doping unless--a tearful confession is published. You know, 'solid proof' of drug addiction.

Camenzind, Hamilton, Perez, Hondo have all recently joined the exposed doper club. (membership @ 800+)

I wonder if any TDF winners were as clean as David?

Mate , go outside for a ride.Lift some weights.Have a wank.
Anything , just stop posting 5 dope threads a day and bumping ones that are 12 months old.

If you go off UCI standards, 99.9% of the human population is on some sort of "dope." Now, I'm not saying that there is not a problem in pro cycling, what I'm saying is that things like too much cafine will get you a positive result under UCI standards. They ban things like cafine, cortizone and other medications that people use on a daily basis for medical reasons. The UCI considers things like Hydroxicut, Xenedrine and other weight loss supliments as a banned substance. I'd bet that 75% of the American population use that crap! So, I'll back Flyers weak remarks to a point: "If you go off UCI standards, EVERYONE-EVERY cyclist in the whole world should be banned from ever riding a bike again because at one point in your lives, you have used a banned substance. (Hopefully you will understand that I am joking!)
