Landis Defends Self Against Doping Report

"Tour de France champion Floyd Landis went on the defensive Tuesday against the French lab that conducted follow-up tests on his backup urine samples and reportedly found traces of synthetic testosterone.
'If it's going to be objective, the least you could do is send it to a lab that doesn't have motivation to confirm their work in the first place,' Landis said on CBS' Early Show.
He said the report on the Web site of French newspaper L'Equipe on Monday was yet another result of unethical maneuvers engineered by those who want him stripped of the Tour title."
