    Next move from Armstrong

    Here's a link to a funny fake confession written by The Onion two years ago. Lance should just use this as a script. http://www.theonion.com/articles/lance-armstrong-wants-to-tell-nation-something-but,17973/

    Did Nike pay $500,000 to Verbruggen to cover up Armstrong positive?

    Does that mean they paid $200,000 instead? Why not say they vehemently deny any payment to the UCI. I'm glad Nike ended it's contract with Lance, but maybe it was also a way to stop people from probing about a possible involvement in the cover up.

    USADA - Armstrong

    Yes. It's a good day if you hate corruption. It's a good day if you hate liars, cheaters, and bullies.

    The official CBS 60 minutes thread

    Do you see the pattern here? Floyd says Lance cheated. He is called a liar, a traitor, and not credible. Tyler says Lance took EPO. He is now a liar and not credible. CBS puts out a story which says Lance took EPO. They are called not credible and not upholding journalistic integrity...

    The official CBS 60 minutes thread

    It was funny to hear the code word for EPO was "Edgar Allan Poe". I can imagine the conversation now. Tyler: So uhh ... I was wondering if I could borrow some books? Lance: Sure. Which ones you need? Tyler: I've heard good things about Edgar Allan Poe Lance: I'll send some copies...

    Is Brajkovic clean?

    Appreciate your opinion. The logic makes perfect sense. Sigh! Jani, say it ain't so!

    Is Brajkovic clean?

    I'm aware Bruyneel's in trouble. I'm wondering about Brajkovic. I guess you're saying any association with Bruyneel = guilt. That could be the case, but it's not obvious.

    Is Brajkovic clean?

    Cycling is a great sport, but the more cheating I learn about the less of a fan I become. Is Janez Brajkovic clean? I'm a big fan, and I'll be disappointed if he's cheating. But I'm not naive that it could be the case. He's clearly the future of RadioShack (for however long the team...

    Contador positive!!!!!

    If Contador is cleared of wrongdoing, then Fuyu Li should be cleared as well. Both were found to have the same amounts of Clenbuterol found (50 ng/ml). Not surprisingly, Dr. Douwe de Boer, the same guy who defended Li is also defending Contador. I'm not naive that cheating is common in...

    Lance Is A Thief (If He Doped)

    For me, it's simple: Cheating is wrong. Whether it's cheating in school, in business, or in sports, it's just wrong. If we teach our kids not to cheat, then we shouldn't condone it in cycling, right? I'm aware that cycling has a history of cheating that goes all the way back to beginning of...

    Why I will always be a "fanboy" and proud of it

    I agree with this. Thanks for sharing. I never took a psychology class. An analogy I thought of is: falling in love. When you're in love with someone, logic often goes out the door. People in love do crazy things. They'll justify their partner to the death. They won't care about any bad...

    So what happens if Contador wins by 39 seconds or less?

    I completely agree. Lots of Contador haters. But just ignore them. Contador is the 3 time winner of the Tour. None of the haters can do anything about that.
