Armstrong Press Conference: "I doped."

[filipo]

Does anybody else remember that press conference, I believe it was in 1997 or thereabouts, the same time Clean Ullrich won the Tour of France, the press conference where Lance was asked by French journos if he had ever doped, and he said, "Just the once, because I had to know what all the fuss was about/" Maybe those are not the exact words but it was a long time ago and maybe I am getting my words wrong, but he also said that he tried EPO, he went up to 42% hematocrit -- "to be like Jan" he said -- but then he said it didn't do anything so he stopped. And that's when he started winning, of course, right after he came back from cancer and his body was clean again.

It was a press conference in Germany, I remember it as I was there, he had a really neat hat on and I was on a holiday from my native Britain where I ride alot. PROOF that EPO does not work.

PROOF that EPO does not work.

Maybe David Millar could confirm this for us...

I know, I know. It's a lot harder than it looks. Ah well, better to have tried and failed...

It's true, look how my "Yellow Wrist Bands as thought control devices" fizzled.
Maybe we will learn the skills from BPC and Deadhead

Not that hard. Just start a thread about Sarah Palin.

The Beatles and how much I think they sucked seemed to work pretty well. I think next time, I am going to go ballistic on the topic of kittens and how much more tender they are than even veal.

Someone please answer the original question, or give me a reason to not close this thread, or delete most of the posts in it.

 

[Hugh Januss]

There was an original question?

 

[CentralCaliBike]

I think that if the OP's claim to a prior admission were true it would have been brought up in nearly every thread involving LA to prove he is/was a doper.

Y'all do parody much?

Was Alpe always a mod? Did I miss something?

Was Alpe always a mod? Did I miss something?

For as long as I have been on this list, which doesn't say that much.

No. Apparently.

+1.

I have to agree with you. If this had taken place it would have been said by now on this forum.
