    Gran Fondo Hincapie (Feat. Lance)

    Yeah, vindication, that's what I got from all of this. The truth did not/does not pay financially. on another note, isn't that Haven's partner right behind Levi leaning over?

    Gran Fondo Hincapie (Feat. Lance)

    You get a raise RR! I would've posted that but NBC Sports was here too busy ironing out their new deal with Fra-....er....oops. Soooo lucrative, you hit the nail on the head. Wiggo, you'd be jealous of our 04 minivan. This is quite entertaining.

    Gran Fondo Hincapie (Feat. Lance)

    Seriously? Did you read Phil Gaimon's book on the team he and Frankie were on together? Enough said. How about Frankie was the ONLY guy in road racing who had the balls to tell a journalist he did wrong as the reason he's garnered some respect by those in the sport who care? I tell you...

    Gran Fondo Hincapie (Feat. Lance)

    "...USA Cycling spokesman Bill Kellick confirmed Wednesday that the race was indeed an official USA Cycling event." USADA's ban should be upheld per everyone's rules, yet, USAC defers to USADA because they don't want to step up. The lack of ethics at USAC is part of the problem...

    Gran Fondo Hincapie (Feat. Lance)

    After Frankie was berated for not getting on the program he had his salary slashed (never received his 00 Tour bonus by the way) and was subsequently fired for ostensibly not willing to be a "team player" i.e. become a junkie and/or see Ferrari. So no, for Frankie doping didn't pay. Good try...

    Thor's book

    Now I know how much you like reading about us so I'm sorry to say we're not even mentioned - or so I'm told. Last I heard, Race Radio wasn't a public figure. Johan outed his identity a few years ago, anyway. I have to wonder if Thor's children are ever in the position of being wrongly...

    Official Lance Armstrong Thread: Part 3 (Post-Confession)

    Thanks, Mark W. The thing is Frankie couldn't speak out about the doping lance et al did because he was NOT part of it. no transfusions, steroids, testosterone, hgh, etc. So how can he speak about something he didn't know??? Reading Dan Coyle's book "The Secret Race" was revelatory. *Lots...

    Official Lance Armstrong Thread: Part 3 (Post-Confession)

    The only reason this is even an issue is because people are making it into something it's not. They could've taken Travis' nationality and made it into an issue just because they have a beef with him. Being Christian is an easy target for people who hate religion. Let me ask you something...

    Official Lance Armstrong Thread: Part 3 (Post-Confession)

    I think the discussion is healthy. I don't follow the sport the way you guys do so my contribution is a bit limited. As long as facts aren't distorted civil dissent should always be welcome. I don't agree with Frankie on everything either. Those are the times he's wrong and should be...

    Official Lance Armstrong Thread: Part 3 (Post-Confession)

    re read the article I'm not sure English is your first language so let me clarify for you: "...there will always be someone trying to buck the system..." means there will always be cheaters and dopers "With the sport changing for the better..." meaning happening now not already happened...

    Official Lance Armstrong Thread: Part 3 (Post-Confession)

    Hog, I'm figuring from my last round with you that people take whatever you write with a grain of salt. The fact remains: Frankie will say on the stand facing perjury that he never saw lance inject himself with something he knew was indubitably a PED. Frankie never saw the transfusions...

    You know, Frankie's smarter than his hair makes him look: "...this is a teachable moment for all of sport and life as well. We don't want to dwell on the past but we must not forget it because of the lesson it teaches. The USADA report made a big difference - a better difference not just for...

    Look at this nugget too: "In my opinion, I’m sure that some riders have escaped sanctions.'' Dirty Works and Race Radio, I'm about to fire you two idiots.

    Official Lance Armstrong Thread: Part 3 (Post-Confession)

    Come on Hog, you can do better than that i.e. not getting called on the outright lie you type: "Has the sport of cycling cleaned up its act? After so many years of being deceived and lied to it would be naïve to think that everyone is racing clean." stupid opinion to redact the names? I...
