Question Floyd Landis loses Tour-De-France title
Floyd Landis loses Tour de France title, and anti-doping system gets bad marks, too - AOL Sports

Okay, so Floyd Landis loses his title because of doping.

The question I pose to Landis is this:

1. What was he taking that contained something that was banned?

2. Why take it at all if he is not sick?

3. Did he know of the risks of losing his title, even though he maintains that he did not do anything bad?

I guess he reminds me like Mark McGwire and Barry Bonds. They both deny taking anything illegal, so they will not be contrite about it.

From what I understand, what they found was unusually high levels of testosterone.

Does not every athlete/cyclist tell the doctors and testers what they have been taking that would cause them to get high levels of testosterone?

I couldn't tell you, H80.

As I was getting ready to leave for work this morning, my husband was watching the news in the living room, and as I was walking out the door, that's what I heard.

Anything more then that, I don't know.
