    yep, shocking...

    At least he went all in though. None of this "I stopped just before the statute of limitations runs out"

    He is the first pro that I know of that has admitted to doping in the "clean years" of 2007 to 2010. I think that's a pretty impressive confession.

    really true Armstrong, Chicken and I would add ARod. All serial liars who cheated the game and anyone else who stood in the way of their winning. Oh yeah and making a bazillion dollars.

    But I thought he couldn't talk because each time he did, he'd have to pay X amount of $ to Rabo?

    It'll be interesting to see what comes of this. We pretty much already know what was going on at Rabo and who the inner circle were there. The juicy part may be in the warnings about the Chicken that went from Riis to Raas prior to his transfer to Rabo. So Riis must have been in the know.

    The wise man said follow me...and he walked behind.

    What response does Rasmussen get for coming clean? Is he attacked and villified?

    Sure. That's how it works.

    And will these heaps of scorn help to solve the larger problem of rampant doping and the omerta, by encouraging other dopers (which may be the majority of riders, who knows) also to come clean? Or will piling on just prove once again that it's better to keep quiet and thereby promote the status quo?

    He figured he was clucked......

    LATE BREAKING NEWS: 68 years after the end of WWII, GIs discovered a secret concentration camp on the grounds of Rabobank in Utrecht, Netherlands. Sources say they were shocked to find that medical experiments had been performed on the prisoners, saying they were horrified to find prisoners who looked like this...

    Wonder how many times Rasmussen was tested over his career. He is no Lance, lol, and did not race nearly as long - so I would guess 200+

    It just shows a bike racer can't survive on an IV diet.

    I think Rassmusson had no choice but confess. I wonder how many pheasants the chicken has flushed from the brush?
