FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 2005 ▼ CYCLING SPORTS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5B Lance fights back,says he's victim of 'setup' BY JIM VERTUNO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Lance Armstrong suggested Thursday that he's the victim of a "setup," saying he doesn't trust the French lab that released test results leading to blood doping allegations against him. Armstrong's comments came after Dick Pound, head of the World Anti-Doping Agency, said officials had received the lab results and would review them. "There's a setup here and I'm stuck in the middle of it." Armstrong told The Associated Press. "I absolutely do not trust that laboratory." The French sports daily L'Equipe reported Tuesday that six urine samples Armstrong provided during his first tour win in 1999 tested positive for the red blood cell-booster EPO. "If he had one, you could say it was an aberration," Pound said. "When you get up to six, there's got to be some explanation." Armstrong, who retired after his seventh straight win in July, has angrily denied the L'Equipe report. He also said that while Pound might trust the lab that tested the samples, "I certainly don't." Pound said the lab had asked WADA months ago if the agency was interested in reviewing its findings and that he agreed. He said the agency didn't expect names to be connected to the findings, but only wanted to see "They said it's simply research." Pound said. if the leftover samples from 1999 would show riders used EPO. Pound said he is waiting for WADA Science Director Olivier Rabin to return from Europe to review the results. The lab report doesn't name Armstrong, but shows the results of tests on anonymous urine samples. While the French newspaper said it was able to match Armstrong to the positive samples, Pound said the lab and WADA officials cannot do that. The French report appears stronger than previous doping allegations raised against Armstrong, Pound said. "There been an awful lot of rumor and accusation about him for a number of years, always of the he-said, she-said variety. This appears — I haven't seen the documents myself — to have some documentary connection. That's a lot more serious. It's got to be taken more seriously," Pound said. Armstrong and Pound have clashed before on the chairman's comments about athletes who use drugs. Pound said he was unsure whether WADA would have jurisdiction to take any action against Armstrong if the allegations could be proven. WADA didn't exist until months after the samples were collected in July 1999. Pound said he was waiting to see if the International Cycling Union would act on the French report. Armstrong questions the validity of testing samples frozen six years ago, how those samples were handled since, and how he could be expected to defend himself when the only confirming evidence — the 'A' sample used for the 1999 tests — no longer exists. He also charged officials at the suburban Paris lab with violating WADA code for failing to safeguard the anonymity of any remaining 'B' samples it had. Pound said the lab was accredited by the International Olympic Committee and that he trusted it handled the samples properly. "It's one of the top two or three EPO labs in the world," he said. "It's a very competent laboratory." Pound also questioned the need for two samples to confirm a positive test. KANSANCLASSIFIEDS Armstrong said that contradicts WADA's own drug testing policy. "You can count on the fingers of one hand the times a B sample has not confirmed the result of the A sample," Pound said. "It's almost always a delaying tactic." ROOMMATE SUBLEASE "For the head of the agency to say he actually doesn't believe in the code ... if your career is riding on the line, wouldn't you want a B sample?," Armstrong said. "The French have been after (me) forever, and 'whoops!' there's no B sample? The stakes are too high."
