Do you two actually know each other, so the way you endlessly carry on from thread to thread means it's personal, or are you anonymous to each other and just a couple of sad old men with nothing better to do in your lives?
I have plenty to do in my life but deriding the garbage posted by doping apologists for a dirty sport is easy. It's like having a coffee.
You have been asked scores of time as to what you mean by “ doping apologist “ or “ doping denier”.
But you only respond with vile insults.
Your only derision is your foul insults with not one educated fact or opinion.
You make it sound like you could debate, but choose not to.
You never debate with trolls or non-trolls because you simply don't have the information necessary to debate. Otherwise, why not share this information if you could?
You want to shoot holes at my posts, but your guns are always loaded with blanks.
I learned long ago that debate with one such as you is a complete waste of time, so I don't bother. But it is easy to expose the cr*p in your apologism.
"jacksprat" specifically asked about EPO. Of the Kenyan athletes who are "busted" only a small minority of busts are for EPO or ABP. Most are for steroids or other exotic substances. These "work" at all altitudes.
Only a minority of Kenyan athletes are busted for EPO because EPO is part of a "doping cocktail" where the athlete is getting nailed for the androgens first ("doping cocktails" aren't anything new - this strategy has been used by dopers for decades).
Microdosing EPO is far easier to avoid detection vs androgen use - even microdoses of steroids or testosterone.
Distance runners aren't just going to use androgens but those compounds plus HGH, or even "SARMs" would be utilized with EPO as part of their "doping cocktail."
Remember this report on the "high-profile" Ethiopian female runner who readily purchased EPO & HGH from a pharmacy located just down the street from their national track stadium as part of her 45 day doping program? How convenient it must be for these dopers to have access to their gear from a pharmacy right near where they race at. Lol
Maybe. Taking "doping cocktails" really muddies the picture of what actually "works" for these long time at altitude based athletes. No one is arguing that testosterone, steroids, HGH, SARMS, work any differently at altitude. Allegedly these athletes wouldn't take all these other drugs, if they didn't "work".
I do remember the joint collaboration of the Guardian, with the ARD, and Holland Media, where European reporters bought EPO at the local Gishen pharmacy. IIRC, it was speculated here that the "high profile" Ethiopian-born woman was competing for Turkey, but I don't think that was made very clear who she was, who she competed for. Did they say she was getting her drugs from the same local pharmacy down the road?

Didn't you used to know some people who know something about law?
Undisputed arguments are deemed accepted by the opposing party.

More insults !
Can't think of anything more debased as a troll than to be Rekrunner's personal guard dog.

This not a court, dumbo. It is the equivalent of graffiti. In your case it should be on a roll of paper.
I disagree with quite a bit Rek of what says so I am not his guard dog.
I am the guard dog of mature educated debate with an absence of perpetual foul abuse.
You aren't a guard dog. That has teeth. You are a lap dog.
You continue to dig a big hole on uneducated drivel. The sort of drivel we saw when you kept insisting the bladder was part of the digestive system and all medical books had got it wrong.

Has Armstrong bothered to read any human biology books yet?
