Dutchman reacts angrily to questions on Armstrong testing

 

 

When asked about the USADA case Verbruggen reacted angrily, saying, "I don't talk about that. You're a journalist. You hear that those people say Armstrong has arranged with the UCI... If you would be a guy that thinks like Landis or Hamilton wouldn't you ask Armstrong what are you doing with the tests that are done by USADA? What are going to do with the tests by WADA, AFLD? Nobody says that. What I mean is, if Armstrong tells those riders I can arrange with the UCI, if you were Hamilton wouldn't you say, 'Lance what if I'm controlled by USADA, what are you going to do if I'm found positive?' He has been controlled 500 times, maybe 200 times other than us."

 

The claim of 500 tests has never been officially proven but current UCI President Pat McQuaid recently publicised that Armstrong had been tested 215 times by the UCI. However when Cyclingnews pointed out that they weren't aware of how many times Armstrong had been tested or which body had tested him each time, Verbruggen added:

"You should. God dammit. You're here with your microphone embarrassing me with all types of questions. I'm mad at people like you. You don't even do your homework. Is he only controlled by the UCI, he's controlled by other bodies. Am I entitled to be upset? You can write that. I wonder. You don't know the rules. That's upsetting for me. I'm 72 and I don't need lessons from people like that. You don't do your bloody homework. I know he's been tested. Yes. You should bloody well know; I hope to see that you write that. 'We as journalists don't do our homework'."

nah...

 

Fair Game!..

 

Verbruggen is 100% correct... I even read another article where he quotes that Armstrong never, never, never doped... and that was in the same article where he said he and Pat were suing Kimmage... for only 6000 euros??? that begs the question??? why would a man with so much means only sue for such a little? There is something else going on here that I have not yet figured out...

 

And Still the ICI have no documents...

 

And did you guys notice there is going to be a bill to protect athletes in the witch hunt endeavors of the ungoverned body USADA... which will now become accountable... yipee! haha

 

Also races and events that are sanctioned by bodies goverened by USADA and WADA are starting to de-affilliate their events... just to let Armstrong enter!!!

 

its not over yet.

 

GO Lance GO!!! :clap: :clap:

Do you actually know what position verbruggen has within the UCI? tut...tut

The small-boned one puts it eloquently:

This bill is not designed to improve the due process rights of athletes, which are already adequately protected by current rules that were recently approved by a federal court. This bill is designed to improve the public image of one spoiled and disgraced athlete with substantial political power at the profound detriment of thousands of professional athletes with none.

"In October 2009, Armstrong was invited to lunch at the Elysée," Rieu recalled. "It was known that he wanted to obtain the departure of the AFLD president, Pierre Bordry, who resigned one year later. In March 2010, Armstrong presented Sarkozy with a bike. And a few months later, Sarkozy praised Lance Armstrong as a role model during a stage of the Tour de France. It was abusive."
