what's going on with Landis

There is a lot going on that hasn't been reported in
the media, and this blog seems to be the best and most
accurate source of news.

For example, the test results of the A sample are
supposed to be strictly confidential, but they were
released by Phonak and the UCI for fear of a media
leak. Apparently, there is a strong relationship
between the French lab doing the testing and l'Equipe,
the French sports newspaper. Also, this lab is the
same one that did not follow procedure when testing
the Armstrong samples.

Personally, I would be willing to put money on the
fact that Landis is innocent. Unfortunately, I'm not
sure that he will be able to prove his innocence (at
least in a timely fashion).
