Monday is D-Day for Floyd Landis
29 June 08 03:27 PM | ronv | with no comments

Monday, TAS will announce its decision in the controversial case regarding Floyd Landis, who tested positive for synthetic T during the 2006 Tour de France. At last, we will know the outcome of the 2006 Tour de France. The decision is expected at 17:00 European time. Five lawyers from TAS considered the 35 hours of testimony offered by 24 experts. The decision by TAS cannot be appealed, so in one way or the other, we will at last come to the end of the Landis story. If TAS decides in Landis's favor, he is free to ride and remains the winner of the 2006 Tour, though he has already been removed from the official record books. If TAS finds against Landis, he will complete a two year sanction and Pereiro is the official 2006 winner.

Along with the Pro bike race tomorrow this is taking place 2 minutes from my house... 
As of now Transformers II has begun production before the cameras at Bethlehem Steel. Some residents are probably cheering and the rest are probably cussing, despite the warning, at the noise and traffic levels as things go boom and aircraft fly overhead. There filming a battle scene on the old Bethlehem Steel site right in front of the old blast furnaces. I know it is not outdoor related sports but it is so cool that there here filming this ! I just want a glimpse of Megan Fox !!!!
