Contador, Tainted Meat, Plasticizer, Bernard Kohl, Joe Papp

I should point out that many of the details in various news stories are allegations and not proved at this time...

For those of you following the Contador clenbuterol and perhaps plasticizer story, see: http://velonews.competitor.com/2010/10/news/reports-contador-tour-blood-sample-indicates-iv-use_144757

Does anyone know if the plasticizer in blood bags is the same or similar to that used in water bottles?

So here is my theory... the cow that provided the meat the Alberto Contador ate (and which had been illegally given clenbuterol by the Spanish farmer to make it put on weight faster) may also have consumed liquids from plastic bottles with the same plasticizer, or perhaps was given an IV using blood bags with that plasticizer.

That's my story and I am sticking to it. :-)

Meanwhile Bernard Kohl claims a rider cannot win the TdF without doping: http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/kohl-not-possible-to-win-tour-de-france-without-doping

But that seems like it could be his excuse for doping himself....

And does anyone know if any more riders on the Joe Papp customer list have been announced? http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/papp-confirms-additional-doping-investigations-underway.

What a mess...
