racerralph said:Wow, so one month later, actually TWO months later, we get it straight from the horses mouth(Lance Armstrong candidly admits...). Inside scoop.....There was tension in the Astana camp during the TdF!!!!!Really!!!??? Now that is investigative reporting at it's finest. Digging under the opaque surfaces that the racing establishment rarely allows us to peer into, and uncovering the hidden facts!! I just wish we could have been told who the others were that got dragged into the tense situation Lance described, Now that would have been real NEWS. Maybe one day, when and if, those injured parties write their memoirs, we'll find out. But in the meantime, talk amongst yourselves. How does this startling, new revelation impact your appreciation of this years TdF?

Publicus said:Well it confirmed my suspicions. Glad Armstrong kept this under wraps until after the Tour. Imagine if this had come out during the Tour?!?!?!
I truly think that if he wanted to "upgrade" his side of the story he would just keep his mouth closed, and hope the memories of this Tour just fade away. But I suppose that's impossible, because he wants to try and take control of this part of people's memories of the '09 Tour. If he were really truthful about the experience, he might do more than admit that Contador was better than him (another declaration of the obvious. Oh, How BIG of him!) He might admit that he himself put a lot of unnecessary pressure on his own teammate. And that maybe that wasn't the thing he should have been doing, especially while he was busy talking about the team work that it takes to win a Tour.Hugh Januss said:When I first saw the headline I had to check the date stamp on my computer, thinking someone had set it back 2 weeks as a joke.
Do you suppose this means that LA has finally realized that he was acting like an idiot and now he is trying to upgrade "his side" of the story?

But I guess if we keep our Rose colored glasses on, and we keep thinking that things are just going to keep getting better for this 38 year old, we can keep cheerleading away!! Rah, Rah, Rah!!!!![]()
