Tour de France Scandal

I don't know enough about the Tour de France and what happened with Floyd Landis' positive testing for drugs to make an argument for or against his win. But I do think it's a sad state of affairs. Landis continues to claim that there has been a mistake and he wasn't doping, and now it turns out that the French lab that conducted both tests made an error. Lab officials say the error has no bearing on Landis' positive test and that he's still guilty of doping. But it sounds awfully fishy to me.

The whole sport/organization is saturated with people who can't stand seeing an American win the tour 8 years in a row (especially the French). They just won't have it and they'll do ANYTHING to make the real winner look like the loser. Delusions of grandeur.
