That your employer can still take your job away after all those years?

There needs to be a time limitation on these things, or a vendetta can be the result, as we've seen in this case...
WADA has an eight-year statute of limitation- Bjarne Riis owns the '96 win (again) because of this. The whole thing is an absurd movement by USADA to raise more money for their budget through publicity as there is zero chance the UCI and CAS will allow them to take action.
