    Does he say how, what, when?

    Good. His denials were increasingly embarrasing

    Bits of it, but no details (yet). Interview will be on NOS tonight http://nos.nl/artikel/481356-boogerd-be ... bruik.html
    But he already says he's not naming any others involved. Says he basically all did it by himself. But he's not the most believable guy in the world at the moment, is he?

    Who's doing the interview? Wilfred de Jong?

    The Dutch people on the cyclingnews forum are saying that there is a bad translation and that Boogerd is saying he rode some tours without taking dope during the race rather than saying that he did that for all.

    Nah, he'd want to make it into a nostalgia-piece in sepia and super slow motion where everyone wears wool with some shots of dark skies and bleak empty fields/autumn coloured hills thrown in :wink:
    It's some NOS sports commentator I don't know - less risky I guess

    They're right. In the pre-release on NOS.nl he mentions he has 'often enough' done Tours clean. But what is that worth, really? One or two at the start of his career? And who is going to believe anything he says? It doesn't seem to be a no barriers, lets get everything on the table, ask me anything you want kind of confession. Just another stage in a long procession of damage control.

    His interview with Thomas Dekker post admisson was quite good I thought.

    You mean the Holland Sport one? Yeah, that was good. But that was after admission, to talk about the psychology of decisions to dope, that sort of thing. I have the feeling Boogerd still wants to say as little as possible and wishes the media would just go away. I don;t think they need De Jong for that kind of interview, and he wouldn't really be interested either.

    I just made the HN article on that my Dutch translation piece for the week and even I was disappointed in the amount of new knowledge in it.

    Frenchie, if I started a thread about Joseph Stalin or Augusto Pinochet, would you post a subtly edited shot of them looking dashing and heroic?

    I struggle to believe Rolf was only doping in 1990s. He had some pretty good results late 1980s too. Wonder if he will illuminate on the Prof Conconi research notes...that Carrera team all appeared on in 1992-93

    Danish radio show started a campaign a couple of years ago called 'Rolf er ren!' (Rolf is clean!) which became a national joke even for people who knew nothing about cycling. Rolf even admitted yesterday that this ridicule of him had its part in his decision to finally admit. He's a ridiculously good pundit, he can name every rider before the viewers at home watching the races in HD just by their way of riding, often predicts the team's tactics before the races start, obviously knows a lot about the technical stuff of the bikes and has a great story or two about the (now older) riders in the peloton - but the atmosphere always turned awkward when they talked about doping. Hopefully he'll cope a bit better on that part now.

    Rolf Sørensen is a proven liar. We don't believe his confession. Rolf was, is and always will be "ren".
