Floyd Is Innocent
I will never, never, never believe that Floyd was doping. Never. This afternoon after practicing riding his two-wheeler, with training wheels removed only two weeks ago, Benny was planning his next bike ride, and he said, "I will try not to get too many downs." A down meaning... a fall. Then he went on:
Benny: We don't get too many downs.
Me: Who is we?
Benny: Me and Floyd Landis.
HIS FIRST SPORTY HERO WORSHIPPING. AND NOW THEY ARE ACCUSING HIM OF INJECTING HORMONES. I don't care who says it, I don't care who believes it, I don't care if they show me BLACK AND WHITE EVIDENCE "proving" it's true, I will never believe that Floyd was doping -- NEVER NEVER NEVER. If that makes me a blind naive fool then GOOD, show me where to sign up for the club. He was clean.
Did he do something miraculous on Stage 17? YES. Might there be some strange irregularities in his body chemistry because of the herculean effort required to pull off such an astonishing feat? YES. But I believe it's possible for the body to overcome itself, for an athlete to do something that seems impossible, without drugs, but with sheer animal will, and mind over matter.
FLOYD IS CLEAN. I will never believe otherwise.

i am absolutely one hunderd percent with you, my friend (i know, you're astonished, right?). rob sent me an article about it - and his mom (floyd's not rob's). gah! not much support there. yeesh!
he is innocent.
So is Dan going to do the Saturday bike race?
I haven't seen anything about this Floyd Landis thing because for the last two nights I've gone to sleep with Fox News( Yes, I know. It's only because they don't ever have infomercials.) on, trying to keep track of the trouble in Israel. Now there is a situation where I shrewdly suspect testosterone do-ping; fanatics fighting like mad men. If that's not a classic instance of testosterone poisoning, what is?
