Why Do They Do It?

Why Do They Do It? Why do people who are not actually conversant in the Floyd Landis case insist upon using mangled, misrepresented, or downright false information to illustrate some greater point about society or tell a lame joke? Don't they know there are those of us out here who actually follow the case, and can point out all of their inaccuracies? Mr. Klein, here's something else that's pathetic - the press and general public shamelessly expounding on Floyd, when they haven't bothered to get the facts straight. Watch the 2006 Tour, then watch all nine days of hearings, and then maybe you'll know what you're talking about.
