USADA a criminal organisation?

Here they go again. Those geniuses at the USADA are proving once again they just do not care about being honest and actually doing the right thing. NOPE they want to try and ruin people whom disagree with them and make their lives hell. After reading the report that an unnamed cyclist is suing them for violating testing rules by testing a B sample after the A sample came up negative. it makes this observer wonder just what kind of organised criminals are running that place.

I had read how they went and had a very clandestine meeting without the Arbiter that was chosen by Floyd Landis when he was fighting them and it made me wonder then what was going on. Now, I see this in the news and wonder if maybe the method to try and stop cheaters is in fact cheating its self? How can anyone of reasonable intelligence not question their motives and their methods with these two cases. How can anyone not see a pattern very much like that of an organised crime group. Maybe we need to begin a RICO law suit against these people. Maybe we need to look at the reason most North American professional leagues wont use WADA or the USADA to try to handle their illegal performance enhancing drug testing and the like.

I have to question why cyclists don't just get out on a high profile race and then halfway through all find a nice cafe and stop for an espresso, or the like together. Why not just park the bikes, all sit down and order and relax for a while. Seriously, with Italy investigating riders who don't even hold licenses in their country, the Iban Mayo witch hunt from the UCI that violated their own rules on dope testing, why not just say enough is enough we are tired of being horse whipped for no reason. The time is now for the riders, who are what make cycling in the first place, to stand up for themselves and say we have taken enough abuse! I suspect that the riders are afraid of the back lash, or they are just too afraid to stand up and say we are tired of vague rule enforcement and being tried in the media before there is ever a case.

I have watch and love the sport since I can remember. I remember watching a kid name Greg LeMond win the The Tour of France. Now I look at it all and wonder just why do these guys want to suffer off the bike as well as on? No, the time is now to end this folly of presumed guilt. Even with out the professional cycling I know many people would be out riding for the pure joy and fun of it! SO think about this, how many of the drug testers are on drugs? How many of the people at USADA, WADA, UCI etc are using performance enhancing drugs? Maybe they are needed for their time in the bedroom, but they are still using them. The riders need to stop the madness and start acting like professionals and get some basic human rights back! Ride ON!!!!!
