During the the 2010 Tour de France, Alberto Contador returned an irregular blood sample in testing carried out in the town of Pau. In 2012 Alberto was handed a back dated 2 year ban and has lost his 2010 tour title and Giro. Alberto blames contaminated meat consumed at a team lunch on that rest day. This blog is dedicated to the butchers of Pau and the meats they supply

Bro's before EPO
Tired of hearing from Betsy, Greg and all the others Lance ran over in his pursuit of his own dreams. Here is what one of his best bro's, Matthew McConaughey had to say.....
"My first reaction was I was p**sed off," Matthew told MTV News.
"I was mad. I then got kind of sad for him. First off, I had a part of me that took it kind of personally, which I think a lot of people have.
"For him, it was impersonal because he was living a lie. It was a whole unanimous facade he had to carry around."
Matthew is choosing the high road in this matter.
He doesn’t want to harbour ill feelings towards Lance.
"What I realised is that those of us that took that personally, like, 'Oh, he lied to me,' it's not true," Matthew explained.
"What I mean by this is, what was he supposed to do? Call me to the side and go, 'Hey man, I did it but don't tell anybody.' Then I would have really had a reason to be p**sed off at him, going, 'You want me to walk around holding this?'
“Where I am now is I've put myself out of the way and I am happy for this guy, who has now chosen to reenter this new chapter of his life a truly free man. And the weight he had on his shoulders, without the boogieman under the bed, the skeleton in the closet that he's carried for 14 years. Fourteen years he lied and carried the lie with him."
