    It's all over twitter and news. USADA says it has samples from 2009 and 2010 that prove Armstrong samples had been manipulated. Maybe this is why that haven't had time to get to Gabe yet.

    Really? That is most interesting do you have a source for this?

    To be honest I always thought there was something up with him, there were several rumors of him being guilty and I remember one of his team mates who was also found guilty of doping said Lance did the same as him.

    At the time I thought it was sour grapes but now......starting to make a little more sense.....

    What? You didn't know the whole freaking peloton doped? Lance came from the era of the dopers, they all doped.

    I gave him the benefit.....I knew the drug testers were extremely eager to test him and I know the tour de france has a HUGE drugs problem in general.

    But as they tested him and he kept on coming up negative I assumed he might be clean and just talented.

    But I have always had my suspecions........

    This is a perfect example of why the USADA keeps the samples and perform tests on them over time (longitudinal procedures/CIR testing) in case any changes are detected over some samples. Guessing the advanced procedures caught his old tests.

    Here we are.
