Lance Armstrong Banned and Stripped of TDF Titles

[Wyatt Earp]

Although they do report it as a loss in earnings potential, so money not yet earned.

 

What I am saying Mango, my worry to provide for myself is far greater than the problems L.A. are facing.

Me and my own world kinda stuff you know

[NotSoBigBen]

We know why you're standing up for the uniballer…

 

No not standing up for him but I am aware what it is like to have only one testosterone producer ......

[Tumbleweed]

I for one can't wait for the next big breaking news, "Durex drops Armstrong" "Loreal drops Armstrong" "Naas Botha drops-kicks Armstrong"

Have people nothing better to do than sit all day and wait for the next bit of pointlessness ?

 

They should do a line just for those cyclists who want to cover their needle marks. Emma O'Reilly can give technical advice.

Dunno if it was mentioned here, but I heard on the news this morning that SKY are making all staff and riders sign a document that they have never doped or face immediate dismissal from the team.

What ticks me off is the way the Livestrong Foundation is used as a tool for LA own gain.

 

A great example is the foundation hiring lobbyists to persuade politicians to reduce the powers held by USADA. How does this exactly relate to cancer awareness or research?

That immediately puts several riders and staff in a difficult position...

And if they admit yes what then ? suspension, smack on the hand. The "or" indicates they will allow them to remain on the team if they admit it.

No idea. I heard it on safm's sports report, will see what else I can find on it.

Dunno if it has been posted before, but this video is very interesting (The World According to Lance):

Interesting, but if i did dope why would i admit it. Own up you're out, sign, stay on then get found out you're kicked out. Seems the latter is better as you at least earn an income till they kick you out, maybe include a penalty clause that all monies paid have to be paid back.

Well, naturally, it's yet another example of pro cycling following the rules of Who's Line Is It Anyway...
