I understand it as well, he is a role model and all that and it was a good way to show their definitive stance on all kinds of doping.

On the other hand Stefan Schumacher was caught for using cocaine too, don't know when that was, but he's in the tour, won a stage and had the yellow jersey.
He`s tested positive for amphetamines I believe, twice. Last time in 2007. I agree the same stance that was applied to Boonen should have been applied to him.
