Here we go again. But this time it's serious?

We've been through this many times before and it ends up the same. Not so this time.

So the can't help but tick us off again. Leblanc is a moron. If they actually have verifiable results, why now. Why did they wait until a month after his retirement. Who linked Lance's name to the code on the bottle. Why is it the French WADA who has these findings. These are all good questions. But I have a better one.

Why are the French such spineless jellyfish. Why did we help them out of WWII. Ok, the second one was stupid. But the point should be noted. L'equipe is in the business of selling papers and what sells better then a scandal. So at the end of this they fire the person who is responsible. Wow, that's great. But Lance might be left with fans and non-fans alike wondering if he really achieved any of his accolades legitimately.

If you know me you now I'm a huge Lance fan. Am I glad his reign over the pro peleton is over? Yes. There are so many good riders out there right now that should have a piece of the lime light. All this crap with the French brings me full circle though. I'm back on the Lance band wagon and I'll back him all the way. If he is found to have tested positive, I'll be eating some words. Oh well. I won't be the only one.

The circus is just getting started folks so stay tuned there is so much more to come. And if you think only Lance will turn up in this thing your dead right. Well, at least until it might help the French WADA to look legitimate.
