Is there true evidence against Nadal or is it innuendo?

There'll be a lot of scared cheats today.

Statute of limitations might mean the only punishment is the shame of being exposed it seems.

Maybe they can't get banned, but as the TDF has shown, they can be stripped of titles and reputations

Shame = Reputation. Titles, I'm not sure that's correct. Armstrong was done because they linked it as one whole scheme which continued in his comeback. Fuentes was caught and stopped in 2006 so not sure you'll be able to prove that it has been continued for the last 10 years.

Maybe not after 2006, but there are quite a few Spanish sporting successes in the year 2006 itself.

Statute or limitations was 8 years at that point though, so would need to prove the crime continued until 2008 at least.

SPR innuendo mainly - BUT it was on the grounds that there was a Spanish tennis player implicated (and some La Liga ones), and round that time there was only one Spanish player of any stature, and he promptly stopped playing for a year or two due to mysterious injuries. We will find out soon enough.

With all the happy Olympic stuff, I've been far more enjoying all the skulduggery, accusations and dirt digging going on in the background. Highly entertaining.

Sadly, a number of high profile British athletes are well inside the 'grey zone' IMO...

Best tweet. Lance Armstrong to Fabian Cancellara - 'Well done Luigi'. Well trolled sir!

Indeed, *women's 10k*, I have no doubt we'll hear about that, sometime past 202 when the testing catches up.

That certain spanish tennis player always seemed to recover very well......very quickly.

Farah and Aden, don't like the lack of honesty in pretending they're not connected: letsrun.com
