7/29/2006

Does anyone else find it at least slightly amusing that it is the French who find elevated levels of testosterone suspicious?

Can you understand the extent of the competition at Tour de France ?

John Lott said...: I can't remember where I read a quote about this by a doctor, but the benefits from taking testosterone only occur after one has taken it for a long period of time. It is not clear why this positive result would only occur in this one test on the 17th stage of the trial.; 7/29/2006 8:22 PM

One out 17? And the wrong one to impact the race?

How iron clad are the testing procedures? Do they never make a mistake?; 7/29/2006 11:44 PM
