    Lemond's body of evidence

    Lots of time and effort focused on "He won" when theswordsman immediatedly followed that with the acknowledgement that "It's not as simple as that." Did this thread get hi-jacked or what?

    The reason for so many trolls?

    Classic troll behavior. Step 3: "... Have fun with it, when someone counter-attacks, get playful with them--nothing ****es off someone in a rage than when you joke around with them." http://www.ehow.com/how_2064125_become-internet-troll.html Even if you're not intending to be a troll, if...

    All Things Legal - The Law for Non-Lawyers

    I took the liberty of editing your quote. The truth of the statement lies in what it is you're trying to prove. For example, if you're trying to prove that Lance did a blood transfusion, Floyd's statement that he saw it happen is direct. But if Floyd could only say that he saw someone take a...

    The most emboldened Journalist yet: from GQ?

    It needs to; the story is still not at critical mass. I got a chuckle from a conversation one week ago: over breakfast with a number of other casual, recreational cyclists, one said that he had heard that Armstrong was being investigated again "by the French." I informed him that it was "by the...

    TDF Stage 14 - Sunday, July 18 2010, Revel - Ax-3 Domaines, 184 km

    I see that now; they're taking a "wait and see" approach whether Petacchi will be unlucky/bad by Bordeaux http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/cavendish-takes-pride-from-second-place-in-revel :cool:

    TDF Stage 14 - Sunday, July 18 2010, Revel - Ax-3 Domaines, 184 km

    With no GC aspirations now, will HTC set up Cav for the intermediate sprints? With the work he's done on improving his climbing, would Cav still get over the HC climb in the time limit? Or does he need to take it easy prior to that climb in order to finish on time?

    Renshaw out

    The overhead view definitively shows that Dean did not keep his line and the head-butts failed to keep Renshaw in line in front of Cavendish. After the third head-****, it is Dean in front of Cavendish and Farrar decided to go to the right. But Dean then moved right cutting off Farrar who had to...

    Ballan and the destructive power of suspicion

    Floyd is a liar; he has no credibility. There's no truth to his allegation that he has no evidence, if in fact that is what he said. :confused:
