Heras busted

By now I am sure you have all heard that multiple Vuelta winner Roberto Heras has been caught for the use of EPO. He will lose his 2005 Vuelta title and receive a ban from cycling of 2 years.
One down and many to go, that is my initial thought on the subject. One step closer to dethroning Lance as the vicarious hero of way to many Americans and ignorant Trek riders everywhere.
The best thing that can come out of this is that Hera's lawyers have vowed to pick apart the EPO testing procedure and ultimatly find fault in it. This could result in weak points in the test being discovered and an end to this never ending speculation when an athlete actually does get caught. There have been several examples recently with athletes failing the initial tests, being proclaimed guilty of EPO use and then later being found to be innocent. I honestly hope that the test is inaccurate and that Heras proves himself innocent.
It wouldn't surprise me however if we stop hearing much from his lawyers in the not so distance future as the test is proven to be reliable and Heras quietly serves his sentence and ponders his emerging career as director sportif. As negative a thought as that is. Mixed thoughts on this one.
