I’ve never really heard of this happening before. Floyd Landis has declared that he will post three hundred odd pages of French legal documents on his web site so that his supporters may help discover things that will be helpful in his defense.

We call it the Wikipedia defense

I wonder if we’ll see more of this in the future? People using their high profiles to enlist a small army of legal assistants, litigation 2.0?

The prize for the most underwhelming piece of journalism on this topic goes to Jon Saraceno from USA TODAY.

It’s not a stretch to think that a dude who listens to Metallica, one who can’t remember how many shots of Jack Daniel’s he slugged back the night before rallying to win, would grab a needle or apply a testicular patch in a moment of desperation.

Results of his “A” specimen added to the “B” sample — with Landis’ vigorous but hollow-sounding defense — add up to “C.” As in Cheater.

So cheesy.
