It's Not About The Drugs

I realize there is already a Flandis doping thread. however, i think the issue has taken a much more serious tone, and really has very little to do with Flandis, and very little to do with drugs.
If this story is correct, the current investigation began as a look into Rock Racing, and had nothing to do with LA or Flandis.
If true, all of those 'media conspiracy' and 'American-hating French' defenses are now fairy tales.
Also, if what is being investigated turns out to be true, I think LA will wish that it were about drugs, as using government funds to sponsor a doping program = federal prison.
Please note, LA and anyone involved are innocent at this point. i'm not a Lance hater (too much), and i'm not a huge fan of Floyd. I think this situation is going to begin the process of cleaning up cycling. Too bad it takes this, as this is the only cycling news my non-cycling friends talk about.
