- Allegations that when they were determining his cancer treatment regimine, he admited to the doctor that he had used EPO in the past (from Rueters article: ""According to new testimonies gathered from October 2005 to January 2006 by a court in Dallas, the seven-times Tour de France winner told a Indiana University Hospital doctor on October 28, 1996 he has taken performance-enhancing drugs,")
Yes, thank you. My 1st post was in regards to the 1st article (

The second topic that you mentioned is in the other article (
http://sports.yahoo.com/sc/news?slug...=afp&type=lgns ). If all "they" can come up with are allegations about him taking performance-enhancing drugs before 10/28/96, then it's no big deal IMO.
