  1. So what do we call him now…? Ras-Mooo-sen? I doubt you could go the bank with this but I’m convinced. Shit can him out of the tour now!

  2. Anyone notice how Phil L. was going on about how clean and drug free this Tour is during today’s stage. Gimme a freakin break.

  3. If you were handed an illegal substance to smuggle into another country and really wanted to do something to stop doping (or it pissed you off to be cast as an unknowing mule), how about contacting WADA and having a little sting operation? Instead all we have is a cute story with no proof- the juice went down the drain, he claims.

  4. Yeah, and when you were in college and someone you know was fucking around, did you call the cops or just steer clear of the mess?

    I think you steered clear and let the chips fall.

    The fact Whitney Richards did not involve the Police, WADA, FBI or whomever means nothing in regards to his accusation.

    And there is a witness:

    “That friend, Taro Smith, Ph.D., confirmed Richards’ recollection of the incident.”

    And a witness counts as proof.

  5. Yea Jonny…I agree with you man but based on my recent rant with Bush43 about “evidence” of doping I thought I’d keep my mouth shut. A week ago I was thinkin’ like tsteele. Then I thought about my discussion w/Bush43 a bit and decided that man…people just don’t make shit like that up – especially 2 people (one of whom is a PhD). I’d say the Chicken is burned to a crisp as well.

  6. I say it was an honest mistake. I always mix up boxes of cow blood with boxes of cycling shoes. I am willing to overlook this one.

  7. Funny how all this stuff never comes out until the Tour is in full swing. Remember that people should be innocent until proven guilty, although………..

    Questions: Why would a PhD co-oraborate a story like that?

    Why would Rasmussen bother having a “friend” smuggle dope to Italy for him from the states, could he not have purchased it in Italy quite easily?

    And how long do we have to wait to get a verdict in the Floyd Landis case?

  8. I gave goatboy a box of condoms to take with him for me to tailand. But he is waiting to out me once become a priest

  9. Nobody’s considered that Mr. Rassmoosen may have been studying to be a vet in his spare time, and accessed important veterinary medicine cheaply in the US so he could, with good conscience, improve the lives of family pets around Italy.

    Richards may have killed Lassie in his sink.

    I want to be a traveling vet with a pro contract. Then i can live in CO, Mexican highlands, Italy, and the Netherlands and get paid the whole time. And have a burgeoning pro-bono vet career.

  10. flagstaffist wins the house & the car ! MOO SHOE GOO says it all.

    & I really love sharing what a beautiful sport this is to casual cycling friends when this kinda crap hits mainstream media.

  11. Oh Shit!

    Literally!

    I shit my chair reading Flagstaffist’s “contribution” (to science).

    There ought to be a warning and a pair of diapers handed out when one reads this site! Make those diapers with a beer can coozie holster on em, will ya Jon?

  13. Would you like a little Moo Shu Dog with your chicken?

    What’s that barking sound out back?

  14. I was staying at the same hotel in 99′ as chicken when he won the worlds….I will say this, was not surprised he won the worlds-even with a lackluster season.

  15. Why is it always the dudes who got dropped as “former amatures”. Funny part is the dude knew exactly what the shit was.

    No positive this tour no problems. We are living today and he is racing today so if he is clean today its a non topic

    why is it important to tarnish his glory today with something that may or may not have happened years ago

  16. “I have no positive doping tests, and that’s it,” he said.

    Where have I heard that before?
