A design for a team EPO Jersey? Don't bother, just go buy yourself a Discovery Jersey... Or anything with the words 'Floyd Landis' on it and you are set.

I'd love to get one. Should also have phone #'s on the sides - 1 800 EPO-2DAY or something like that.

And the jersey should have a bunch of "sponsor" names: Amgen, Pfizer, Merck, etc.

I don't think we should use actual company names. Nobody's blaming pharmaceutical companies for ruining the sport.

+1 for moving the needles.

If you're serious about this, put me down for 2.

maybe on the back it could read..."because you can't win the Tour de France on mineral water alone!" as qouted by Jacques Anquetil.

What became of the Team EPO Jersey idea? It's time to resurrect it. I'll take a size M, please.

Remembering Landis's excuse, I suggest Jack Daniels jerseys .

In all seriousness. A jersey would be very tuff and $$$$$$ to produce fast enough before the interest dyed. A T-shirt would be the best way. And I could make them with all the suggestions from here on a yellow shirt. Team EPO on the sides, syringe on the sleeves and all. Last year for a TDF party I made a EPO makes me go shirt. Had a picture of a racer that I did a motion blur on to make him look fast. Was pretty funny. Jerseys are allot of work to do them right. A T-shirt could be done for $25 and thats with six images locations most if not all in multi color. No 1 color stuff. Interested? I would do these my self not farming it out. Been printing for 35 years and allot for the cycling industry.

Only if there is an image depicting Landis, asleep with an empty whisky bottle in one hand, after stage 16 with the testosterone patch still affixed to his nut-sack.

I heard from a friend that was the rumor as to why his levels were elevated. he actually fell asleep with the patch on his sack. man, you can't make that stuff up.
