Austin Murphy of Sports Illustrated has talked to Landis, and says that Landis is determined to prove he is clean.

FLOYD DENIES CHEATING

Among the interesting tidbits. Reporters have forced Landis mother to leave the family farm and go into hiding.

Landis revealed that in addition to the Cortisone injections he also takes a daily medication for his thyroid. His doctor's speculate that the 2 things combined may have helped raise his Testosterone level.

Landis also said he is not very hopeful the B test will exhonorate him, he instead is planning on fighting the result, and points out that all challenges to this test have been successful. He will submit to endocrine testing etc, to show that the result is not abnormal for him.

Thanks for the article commish.

What do you think of this whole deal?

I hope and pray for Landis and for the sport of cycling that it will prove to be a false alarm.

Cheers.
