...which he said way back in, what, early 2010? More than two years before the USADA report came out? Yeah, maybe he should have been paying more attention, but here's what Wiggins said this year: So, used to be a little bit intimidated by Armstrong, which is understandable given Armstrong's...

I think you need to be a little more open minded - what you've done here is basically dismiss, insinuate and twist based on the fact that David Millar did not use the exact words you wanted him to use, which is a bit pointless really. We can all go looking for conspiracy theories in "missing"...

I like this bit: "My name is Lance Armstrong. I am a cancer survivor. I'm a father of five. And, yes, I won the Tour de France seven times." The first part of his introduction is an honorable legacy. The last part is a lie. The real sadness here is that Armstrong no longer seems to understand...

I'm not on Twitter, but I'd be interested to see the response from Liggett if someone tweeted him to ask whether he'll still be in denial if George Hincapie is one of the "10+" people who have testified against Armstrong, as widely believed. Probably the response will be...silence.

This is a good article from Bill Plaschke in the LA Times this morning: http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-plaschke-lance-armstrong-20120831-9,0,1276265.column He pretty much rips Armstrong up. It'll be articles like this that begin to turn the tide against the fanboys.

Whilst Armstrong's is up in the stars, yeah? Fail.

Yep, there are still cases to be answered (Bruyneel etc., if they chose to go to arbitration) so they cannot release information publicly until those cases are wrapped up either way, but Travis Tygart has certainly stated that USADA will release the evidence when legally able to do so, which can...

Great post hiero2, much respect.

That is a good point - I'd almost forgotten Bruyneel in today's hoo-hah. Correct me if I'm wrong, but he still has some time before he has to give his decision on whether to go through the USADA tribunal or to take the same route as Armstrong and not fight the charges. My initial guess is...

http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/blog/2012/aug/24/how-lance-armstrong-strongarmed-cycling Good article from Matt Seaton on the Armstrong saga, titled "How Lance Armstrong Strong-armed Cycling"

He's actually the smartest move that he could have done, out of the limited number of options left to him - he knows that if he chooses to fight it, he'll end up with the infamous ten cyclists testifying against him, and the public will eventually get to hear all the real evidence. By saying...

Clueless. Absolutely clueless.

Hats off - superb ride today. Olympic gold! Wiggins has now won more Olympic medals than any other Briton. He rocked it!

Gullible? I'll tell you who's gullible: AAA (armchair anti-doping authority) idiots who automatically assume that Wiggins is doping just because he won the Tour. I actually feel sorry for people who have been so worn down by the years of doping and cheating that they've lost all ability to...

Dang. Unrepentant drug cheat wins gold. Disappointed.
