Say it Ain't So Floyd!!

No no no.... I wake up to read the days sports headlines and there blaring across the front of TSN.ca was "Landis busted for doping". Noooooo...why!?!? I hope and pray that the B sample proves it was a mistake, or another reason surfaces. The positive test comes from Stage 17, when he pulled off one of the most inspiring comebacks to claw back to striking distance of the yellow jersey. If it is true, I say eat it cycling. I feel bad for guys like Robbie, who *may* be clean, but their going to be tainted as well. The world expects superhuman feats, and maybe it pushed Floyd over the line after the now famous bonk on Stage 16. Maybe he did put the testosterone patch on his nuts that night and recovered faster than he would've normally. I prefer to believe not though, I won't dive onto the 'cheater!' bandwagon that fast. Landis published his 'power ratings' throughout the stage, and they were impressive, but not superhuman. He just held his strong pace for longer than the others thought he could. Many other leaders COULD have held that and probably have done it in training many times, but they banked on Floyd hitting the wall after such a disastrous day on Stage 16. I prefer to believe he dug deep and found the will to drop the hammer that day. And until further notice.....
