Damn, damn, damn.
Olympic cycling champion Tyler Hamilton was suspended Wednesday by his pro team, which threatened to fire him if he can't prove he's innocent of blood doping.(story)
Of course I want to be up in arms that Phonak ought to have a little more faith and actually stand up for him...the doping isn't proven unless the results of another sample also come back positive...but that cynicism creeps in.
I have actually reached a point where I'm not going to be shocked if any cyclist comes up guilty. Saddened, yes. Disappointed, yes. Pissed off...oh yes.
I'm waiting for the second set of test results. Hoping, but waiting.
