Jul 20: Ex-cyclist levels doping charges at Rasmussen
Jul 21: Rasmussen might have been barred from Tour had missed tests been reported
jul 22: Rasmussen not exactly winning hearts and minds among his colleagues
Jul 23: Millar says Rasmussen has ruined Tour
Jul 23: Pressure building on Rasmussen... on and off the bike .

and if you read the articles they are witten with predetermined guilt. Doping charges from 5 years ago? Who cares. what happens today is what counts. I'm sure they are testing him like a lab rat due to all the rumors. also when they decribe the " admisntrative error" they describe it as a miss test, and describe the scenario entirely different than the other press. Which suggest different scenario

I am not a fan of MR. But I am a fan of cycling and try to stay bias. I wanted Sastre to win the tour or Vino.(bummer) but I could care less about the chicken but I think he has been brilliant. Not until proven otherwise i will not address his performance with guilt.

I really would of like to see Contador wup him as well but that didn't happen.
