But if you read how the tests are conducted and what the normal ratios are it is for all intents and purposes impossible for the tests to be faulty. I'm sorry. This broke my heart today when I first heard about it. I rooted for him like every other person on the planet but it isn't fair to the other competitors to cheat like this. We don't give Barry Bonds any slack do we? Let's be consistent.

I respect your opinion and you obviously know about the technologies of testing. I just can't -- at this point -- in the process toss my support for him until the B test results come back and I hear his reaction and explanation. He seems like a good guy, fine family and upbringing, but we also know the world and pressures for a competitive advantage can bring temptations for corruption. I'll wait, and hope, that the A test and you are wrong, but we'll see.

"But if you read how the tests are conducted and what the normal ratios are it is for all intents and purposes impossible for the tests to be faulty."

Then why was it reported that every other rider who has been challenged on these grounds has had the verdict reversed?

Please explain then why EVERY SINGLE challenge to this 'Impossible tobe faulty" test has been successful then.
