I read the Anderson piece and a couple things don't add up.
1) He had to move to New Zealand b/c his reputation was tarnished in Austin?
2) He didn't even have a copy of the email exchange where Lance promised to set him up with a bike shop?
Last, and not least:
In the middle of this purge, I found a prescription box in the medicine cabinet—to the side of the vanity in the bathroom—that sent everything spiraling. I knew what it was. Not exactly at first, but I sensed from my rudimentary knowledge of medicine that this box shouldn’t be in the bathroom of a professional cyclist.
The label said Androstenedione.
Andro might have been banned by WADA and UCI, but it was an OTC "pro hormone" available at GNC, etc. I very seriously doubt that any MD would have RX'd that particular drug - in the first place, it was introduced by Pat Arnold, and it took an act of congress to declare it a drug, literally. In the second place, I don't believe that it was ever manufactured by a pharma company - it was manufactured by the supplement companies.
(I did just search quickly, and found no mention in Wiki or other places that a pharma company ever manufactured this drug.)
The thing to know about people who have money: they will generally rain hell down upon you should you threaten to fuck with them. That comes with the territory. Expecting Lance to be any different, especially given the massive amount of money he's exposed to with the foundation? Really?
