Great gifts for your GRAD or DAD In two e-mails obtained by The Associated Press, Landis also admitted for the first time what had long been suspected * — that he was guilty of doping for several years before being stripped of his 2006 Tour de FREE PHONES France title. "I want to clear my con- science," Landis told ESPN.com. "I don't want to be part of the problem any more." Neither Landis nor his fam- ily returned repeated messages from the AP. The Wall Street Journal first reported the details of the e- mails on its website early Thursday. The newspaper also reported Landis was cooperat- ing with the Food & Drug Administration's criminal investigations unit and had met with FDA special agent Jeff Novitzky, the lead investigator in the BALCO case. Landis alleged that Armstrong and longtime coach Johan Bruyneel paid former UCI president Hein Verbruggen to cover up a test in 2002 after Armstrong purportedly tested positive for the blood-boosting drug EPO. The UCI denied changing or concealing a posi- tive test result.
