Floyd Landis is back in the news, taking his claims of innocence online with a powerpoint presentation at his website. My favorite part of the article says…
Landis’ positive test results were reported less than a week after his triumphant July 23 ride into Paris. In the days following the report, Landis contended that a number of factors could have triggered the result — thyroid medication, cortisone injections he was taking for a damaged hip, his body’s tendency to produce too much testosterone, even some whiskey he drank the night before his stirring win in Stage 17.
Yes, it was probably the whiskey. Question: Could Floyd be innocent? My answer: No way.
