Well, problem with these polls is only 2 options. I think Landis is telling the truth about a lot of things but has probably thrown in a few lies as well. Also whether Landis is lying or not shouldn't affect your opinion on Pat. Personally I think Pat is probably indicative of the upper levels of the UCI etc, just getting rid of Pat wouldn't change much and I don't think things will change much either, certainly in the short term.

Isnt it strange that the book ' from Landis to Lance' by david walsh is telling just the same stories as have been stated by Floyd Landis, with evidence from various members of the US postal team and family.

yet it never received any of the press that this story has !!!!.

Mcquaids reaction to the allegations made against the UCI is the most incredulous thing to come out of all of this Shocked http://media.newstalk.ie/extra/790/popup

Only because Walsh's previous book, LA Confidentiel, resulted in LA suing everyone involved, and no one felt the need to be sued again. Landis has nothing to lose so feels free to allege away. That LA isn't on the legal offensive straight away is very telling.

First thing you get taught at law school, innit: never waste time suing someone who doesn't have any money.
