dracs Posted October 12, 2012 Share No insult meant, you said you had difficulty finding my point. I clarified it for you. Whether you agree or not is up to you, no need to take the day off on my account. I was referring to this in your post: If yes to above I suppose you really do believe that Lance made them do it - poor little victims. If you think Lance is telling the truth and everyone else is lying that is a pretty hardcore way to avoid getting on a bandwagon but that's your prerogative. If you truly believe that because you have analysed the evidence you must know a lot more than the American investigators. And if you believe it simply because it is Lance and not, say Vinokourov or Contador, then you are adding weight to my point about being influenced.You say you make up your own mind. The question is: on what are you basing your decisions? Edited by TZmtb, Today, 12:07. Its all good. If it wasn't clear the victims part was my attempt at sarcasm. To be even clearer I actually believe the opposite. It is very easy to play the victim card when the game is up and you are trying to save your own skin. Credit to Hincappi - at least he is the one guy not going down that road. As for me believing Lance is telling the truth and all others lying, you really need to slow down and actually read what I said.

Garfield2010 Posted October 12, 2012 Share I think everyone is overreacting. Lance didnt dope. He never tested positive and why would he? Why would he risk his reputation by doping? I think this is a witch hunt by someone who doesnt like Lance. Maybe Jan Ullrich sits behind it all as he will now become like 5 time winner or something of the tour?

scotty Posted October 12, 2012 Share Lance is out, finnish, klaar. Unable to partake in any sanctioned sport, triathlon, cycling, running, swimming..whatever which knowing how much he loves his sport must be pretty hard on him. He is not trying to appeal or overturn it and accepted it. Whether he confesses or not it's not going to change anything, so what more punishment can he get. Sponsors pull the plug on him, get sued for reimbursement of prize money, sponsorship money, Livestrong get shut down, his bike shop boycotted etc. Is there a point where punishment is enough.

Christie Posted October 12, 2012 Share Another point to ponder:Lance retired, but the rest of the staff, Bruneel and the doctors, stayed the same. Are we to believe that methods of traing and other things were different, when Contador, Cancellara, Voigt and the Schlecks raced for them?
