Gerlach, Gaggioli, etc...

Chad Gerlach, for what his credibility is worth (maybe less than Landis'), has stepped into the mix. I was told his Facebook states he is working with the Feds and he explains that Levi used to buy his EPO from Gaggioli...

If someone has a link, I don't, I am not a Facebook user.

Amore & Vita DS Roberto Gaggioli?

lolz li'l Leepy Leeepheimer.

I thought Odessa used to take him to Wien human plasma clinic with the Rabos and he complained about their quality of blood doping regime. I know Odessa was talking about his blood doping program.

Ironic on Amore & Vita. Any time there is a drug bust of a star, the principal gets his name in the media and offering a spot if they are willing to ride clean.

ah dude I love Gerlach, why is it only these dudes with no credibility in the eyes of 75% of the world come forth, lol. "This is obviously a conspiracy of junkies and alcoholics to dethrone LA"

Chad went completely off the deep end, one has to wonder how much use he'd be?

I think at this point a lot of the investigation is about looking for links, sources, etc. If those transactions took place as Gerlach described, authorities can take a long hard look at the supplier, just like tracking the chain in other drug deals. This will end up a much bigger deal than just getting some riders banned. Interpol is looking for International doping rings across sports (that from the AFLD signing agreement with law enforcement announcement).

Just got the text of his posting:

"Gerlach joins Federal inquiry! I remember when Levi was young and he used to buy EPO from Gaggiolli. Yeah i loved to get high, but when the **** hit the fan, only a real ***, digs deeper! I can't wait to tesstify in Congress. I'll give up every champion from 95 thru 2002. It gets worse. Cool, California, we remember T, you'll B there too!"

Oh man...

Do you guys understand now why I'm imploring Vaughters to come clean?

Look at the cast of anti-doping characters: Decanio (kinda made sense when he took his thorazine....JK Matt!), Flandis (author of such works of literary prose as "Absolutely False"), Matt Weisse (sp?) (world's most bitter Cat 3), and now this...

What's next? Is OJ is gonna come out and say he traded needles with Zabriski?

Fortunately "Gagg" has made more enemies than Armstrong and has a big mouth, so I have to think some other folks will come out of the woodwork. Hopefully some of them will have a fixed address...

This one will be interesting and funny to watch.

Well you probably don't have to implore them to make a statement, let them just spill the beans to the fuzz, that should work right?

Some pressure on Gaggioli's private life and folks he "coached" would reveal some startling candidates for his activities. Whether they extended to anyone else is a guess. He was a piece of work back then and generally lacked credibility as a racer; except by his fanboys of the time.
I hope Chad did not have any involvement with that source.

Credibility problems? I think not. If anyone knows how to find drugs, it's Chad Gerlach.

Sorry; couldn't resist. Chad, if you're reading, I loved following your comeback last year. Hope you can clean up and do it again.

Gerlach has now removed that posting.

I think most of you are missing the whole point. By the time these supposedly un credible people put the whole puzzle together, it's too late for the major players.

By the time Armstrong issues denials of very specific allegations, he's already lost. People act like this guy can win a trial and come out unscathed.

Clemens, ruined. McGwire, sammy Sosa A-Rod. Anyone who thinks that LA can go a similiar route is insane. He has a much higher PR standing than any of those guys. Who still thinks he has a political career in front of him?:eek:
