Floyd Landis won the Tour de France with a dramatic 80 mile up and down ride high in the French Alps.  It was a thrilling come from behind victory for a guy about to have hip replacement surgery.

The thrill was gone, however, when he tested positive for testosterone.

Landis explains that he's just a very manly man.  "My physiological parameters for testosterone and
epitestosterone are naturally high,"
…"I was the strongest guy in the stage and in that race,
and I deserved to win," he said.

Or, as James  Taranto said in Opinion Journal,  "Only the French would consider the  presence of testosterone in a man's system suspicious."

    I'd pay $50 to see Taranto say that to Zinedine Zidain's face.
