The following article was posted a few weeks ago on Stolen Underground in regards to Tom Boonen's double win of the Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix.

Boonen is on a roll. Here is an interesting story from DeCanio from Clinger...........
Before the 2002 Paris Roubaix Boonen and Clinger were in the Postal bus and as Boonen got up to leave he said to Clinger's face..."WE ARE TAKING OVER TODAY BITCH, FUCK YOU!"
Boonen went on to get 3rd place with his other countrymen who took 1st and 2nd. Doping control never showed up that day. Clinger swore that Boonen eased up on the cobbles to take Hincapie out, if everyone can remember George took a ride into the ditch. Clinger said all you have to do is ease up on the cobbles and you can take the guy out behind you.
Boonen did come to America to race in Redlands and Sea Otter. He fucking sucked and couldn't get out of his own way. A guy can ride to a 3rd place finish in the hardest one day race in the world yet can't ride away from American pros and cat 1s and 2s. WTF?
It is very easy for people to judge Clinger but these are all reasons he got a face tattoo. The sport will eat you up if you don't prepare yourself for what is ahead. You must know these challenges exist and expect these things to happen to you.
For those younger riders in Europe racing, know this is what happens. Know that doping rules in Europe no matter what everyone says. Rise above the drugs, and the way you are going to do that is through a college education. Get your education during the offseason. Once you have that, you can always fall back on that and not have as much stress worrying about results. With knowledge you have power and people will not be able to push you around. That is all.
Signing Off.

I don't know who to believe.
It isn't unheard of to win Flanders and Roubaix in the same week. And Matt DeCanio (of Stolen Underground) likes to stir up shit like this. The sole purpose of his website is to expose all dopers in the pro peloton and he likes to stretch rumors as far as possible.
But at the same time, the pros do dope, a lot. So it wouldn't surprise me if the neo-mullet sporting Boonen was soaring high on the "good stuff" too.

Love the me so horny mp3. This site rocks, allthough im not so sure what its about!
That is just so wrong: accusing people without any shred of evidence. Sad.
