Nice article. However, the author known collectively as EKR is in no waysuggesting that Lance is innocent, check out his last paragraph:
"Note that I'm not saying that Lance Armstrong wasn't taking EPO. It's certainly possible that he was." EKR, 2005
Moreover
"Yes, it's true that Armstrong has repeatedly tested negative. OTOH, the false negative rate of this test is high so there's a possibility that he could have been evading... Or, he cheated when it was easy and then when nobody could cheat, he stopped too, and since he is better overall... Or, he could just be clean. A complicated issue" Ekr, 2005
It is clear that he' s is simply questioning the methods of testing....in 2005. We gots new ways of doing it now and any degradation of the sample can be easily extrapolated.....Did you know that people still believed that the moon landing was faked in 2005...
Okay so to believe that Lance didn' t cheat I have to believe some interwebz guy 2005 research, dismiss the USADA current procedures, ignore the testimony of ten former teamates, and believe that Lance was the only top finisher in the years in question that didn't cheat.....
Well hot dang! You should contact Lance and tell him you got it all figured out....real simple just refer to some webguy called EKR' s seven year old blog. Hurray for rational thinkers everywhere!
