I think you mean Nancy Grace, not Oprah. But Nancy would be great interviewing Lance, especially if she is in one of her nastier moods!

No, I did mean Oprah. Back in the day when I obviously had time to waste I used to watch her show. One of the reasons I stopped looking at it was because she would ask a question and when the person began to answer, she'd interrupt. It really got on my nerves.

Good for Buzz to man up and admit it. Rick Reilly, you're next.

Waiting for Washington Post to fire Sally Jenkins.

Sally has another book to write for Lance. If Lance doesn't choose her as the co-author, then probably she'll write a column like Buzz Bissinger.

Think they will have the country song playing in the backround?
I'm sorry.......so sorry.....,by Brenda Lee.
Maybe a picture of an apple pie in the backround.
Maybe some subliminal messages here and there.

What makes you think she is non-British Cycling?

Especially when she has a profileon their web page?

What he means I think she is not part of the "british cycling establishment" which is certainly true - and I think she has suffered for that.
She has lived life on continental teams separated from most of the British riders - nothing to do with the "manchester mob". She paved the way for British women.

yeah I said something similar in my previous post. No reply from Mountainrman whatever it means.

Seems like the folks around the clinic will be glued to the Television to see what is asked and said. :rolleyes:

Silence means he was out rock climbing, yes in the northern UK, and no I never bet on anything as a rule! - I just opened an account because lance saying the word "USADA" in Oprah interview sounded as close to free money as I have seen in a long time!

PS does anyone have a link to Nicole's interview about Lance?
She is my kind of rider - what I love about cycling.. I have watched her every opportunity since seeing her live at the commonwealth road race just up the road from me here. She fell at the bottom of a hill, lost 30 seconds, then in a burst of adrenalin. Got up shook herself down. Launched after them, caught them, and didn't stop as she went past to medal

I have a total fu*king man crush on Buzz Bissinger right now.

"He is an immoral, manipulative liar who doesn’t deserve a second more of anybody’s time.

So don’t waste it by watching him Thursday. Don’t continue to feed his insufferable ego. Don’t give him the satisfaction.

Let him be what he has become:

Unimportant and worthless."

I love that he had the balls to put the video of his previous statements on the same page. Great column!

Yeah it's all good, but let's not suck Buzz's **** that easily shall we.

He had no other option but to do what he has done.

He should have acted like a proper sports journalist when he had to instead of handling the matter in such an amateurish way.

Apologies if this was mentioned in an earlier post, but I haven't spotted it yet. A coworker told me this morning that she saw "excerpts" of Oprah's LA interview on OWN last night (Sunday). They were advertising showing these excerpts last night, with the full interview airing Thursday on CBC (here in Canada).

My coworker didn't watch the whole thing, but said she saw him admit to using drugs but act like he was forced into it, basically blaming everyone but himself. Oprah apparently kept coming back to something like, "But you're an adult - shouldn't you take some responsibility for your actions?"

Unfortunately I missed the whole thing - and I'm a bit puzzled, because other media are advertising that the interview is being taped today. Anybody else see the excerpts last night, or have clarification on what that was, vs. what's being taped today/shown on Thurs?

Can I borrow your co-workers time travel machine?

I saw it as well. What Lance was saying was his evil alter ego forced him to dope. The good Lance didn’t want to but the voices in his head got louder and louder and louder until good Lance gave in to bad Lance and he doped.
