I've read a few pages of REPORT ON PROCEEDINGS UNDER THE WORLD ANTI-DOPING CODE AND THE USADA PROTOCOL. And they are really acting like a prosecution team just looking for the win and not looking for truth.

Some quotes that seemed odd & BS to me:

"[Lance's] goal led him to depend on EPO, testosterone and blood transfusions but also, more ruthlessly, to expect and to require that his teammates would likewise use drugs to support his goals..."
-pg 6

versus

"At the end of the 2000 season George Hincapie asked Lance Armstrong to introduce him to Dr. Ferrari. Hincapie felt that he had been putting in a great deal of work but was not getting the results that he wanted. Armstrong said that he would contact Ferrari on George’s behalf."
-pg 46

"Most perniciously, Johan Bruyneel learned how to introduce young men to performance enhancing drugs, becoming adept at leading them down the path from newly minted professional rider to veteran drug user…In June of 2000 at the end of the Dauphiné Libéré Johan Bruyneel explained the process of blood doping to a young Tyler Hamilton."
-pg 110

"Tyler Hamilton, David Zabriskie, Levi Leipheimer, Christian Vande Velde. Four young men at the outset of their careers were among those Johan Bruyneel ushered down the road toward performance enhancing drug use."
pg. 115
