Conte Press Conference
He's from BALCO, and will be holding a press conference at 5 PM EST on ESPNews.
Update: Here's a link. It's Victor Conte's lawyers, not Conte himself. Conte is the founder of BALCO.
Update: Conte lawyer denies leaking information.
Update: The lawyer is saying that statements were taken from Conte and others during the initial search of BALCO. There is no audio recording of those statements, only the written record of the agents. He's insuating that the information being leaked is from those transcripts, and that information is being spun to smear the athletes.
Update: I think you can sum up their line of reasoning as "don't trust an unnamed source."

Well, I think anyone who doesn't maintain a graint of doubt about unnamed sources would be pretty silly. But the information leaked was pretty specific so I think there is probably some truth in it - although what kind of truth remains to be seen. One thing folks should keep in mind is that the leak has some of the facts rights but not all of them. Right now its only in BALCOs best interest to stoke some doubt.
