So my reference to Wonderboy's fat lawyer paying for my identity is deleted but the guy he paid is still a member of the forum?

There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you happy. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy.

- Where is this from?

Mi Vida is a good read. I am sure that Jose was inspired by "It's Not About the Bike" :D

Oh guys do not gossip or start rumours then?

...so I can go ahead and believe the info that I am hearing....

I don't think 9000ft meant it as a gender slap. He said "It's like...". He could as easily have said it's like listening to a bunch of boozed up guys golfing.

I have not kept up with this forum since mods allowed Polish to turn it into the neverending troll show but which member did this?

The thread is about Lance behaving like a petty, petulant, child. Surely having Jabba the Hut pay for my identity qualifies as an example?

In the coming months this thread will be filled with new examples. Will make this look tame in comparison

For goodness sake BroDeal, quit your whining about the moderaters waawaa.
"Moderaters won't perma-ban Polish waa"
"Moderaters won't let me say ****stan waa"
"Moderater this and moderater that waa"

And you found it appropriate to launch your latest off topic tantrum on the Lance's Kids thread. Nice.

"Moderaters Moderaters!"
"Moderators Moderater!!"
"Why are you ignoring me??"

Geez, BroDeal, learn how to take a hint.
Lance's kid did.

Thanx for taking the high road on3m@n
I will give him the benefit of the doubt....I just jumped on it before thinking..

but it was the first thing out of his mouth :rolleyes:

quote 9000ft: "No, what I find much more fascinating is the pathological hatred for this guy that you don't know and the eager willingness to embrace any tiny scrap of information - or disinformation - that suits the agenda of the CN clinic faithful who inflate it to bigger and grander heights."

I don't think that this statement is anything less than fodder for inflating argument though.

I dislike Lance because of the way he has treated people--- that is well-documented or straight from the mouth of someone I know that was a recipient of said attitude.

the 'cn clinic faithful' would include all who post here does it not?

Thanks Race. Sounds to me that "The Patron of the Peloton" is losing control and not able to be a patron in general public.

Will my old USPS jersey be worth more on eBay now or after?

No I think if you review my posts you'll find that I'm rather ambivalent regarding Mr. Armstrong. Never met the guy so I can't comment on him personally, his family life, friendships or lack thereof or anything else as to his private life. Since I'm not privy to any real information I can't say one way or another as to his history of PED use. I'm not big on witch hunts, innuendo, hearsay, or guilt by association. IE: I don't have an agenda.

All that said, nothing would surprise me with him or any other pro athlete, even holy icons of the CN clinic faithful like LeMond or guys who I admire and have actually met like Andy Hampsten. Since like most sports "fans" you guys seem to disdain losers as much as you hate filthy, cheating dopers I don't expect much will change in pro sports as long as there's ridiculously big money and other accolades in being a winner and a modest at best living and obscurity for those not so deserving of the spot light, the podium, the glory.

No, what I find much more fascinating is the pathological hatred for this guy that you don't know and the eager willingness to embrace any tiny scrap of information - or disinformation - that suits the agenda of the CN clinic faithful who inflate it to bigger and grander heights.

It's really very entertaining. :)

This isn't thing in reference to your post but I met Greg Lemond at the airport in the twin cities. He is very much a down to earth dude and talked with me for maybe 20 to 30 minutues. Greg is very much in love with the sport and from my impression of him is he is kind of burnt out with having to fight doping even though it is the good fight. Greg is the real deal. I know that there are people who will say x y and z about him on this forum even though they have never met him or really done research on what he has to say and those who wish to bury him. Lemond is the real deal. There are very few people in cycling that I beleive are completely geniune and not just looking for a future paycheck. Lemond is the real deal. I can't state this more complete than I have but he is the genuine article. I have been an ardent fan of cycling for awhile and am completely blown by how much non-bull**** I got from Lemond. Some of you paint him as jealous and such but take my word for however that is worth that he is not in it for some self serving reason. Lemond is the genuine article.

Hey, another one of these liars who would have us believe that they are disinterested in Armstrong, don't know whether he doped, don't care, and yet the only reason they surface is to complain about people pointing out the truth about Armstrong.

What I find fascinating is the moral dregs who feel the need--no, the compulsion--to defend a person whose entire career is based on cheating and lying about it. How much of a failure in life must they be to not just rally to the defense of a fraud but to display naked hatred and derision for those who want to see the truth acknowledged? The way they delight in Armstrong continuing to get away with it is fascinating. It's like the lowlifes on Stormfront cheering Madoff for ripping off the Jews. There are some seriously disfunctional people backing this fraud. It makes you wonder whether it is caused by mental imbalance, moral bankruptcy, or a blend of the two.

I'm okay with that, but we don't need you being the one to leak names, information on people's private lives, or personal information on this forum. Not that you will be, I just want to be clear here since BroDeal's inquiry.

What actions you take beyond this site is none of CN's business. That's entirely up to you.

The rest of the back/forth on here, there's little I can do about than to ask you all to be polite. Other than close the thread.

Of course it is perfectly fine for a member to use the forum to get my identity, and sell that to an obese lawyer but me saying his name would be a bad thing?

I could fill this forum with stuff that would make your head spin but I don't. All it would do is draw out the trolls to clog the toilet. Time to sit back and watch the train wreck.... unfortunately Wonderboy is far from the only person effected.

YOU would be freaking suprised. NO ****ING DOUBT. RR is telling the truth... the person who done this should be ashamed. And should tell everyone they done it. No GD emote needed in this instance.

hog it seems like the usual suspects are trying very hard to say 'nothing to see here folks, move along' :D

I'm hanging around for the grenades

Is there something to see? I think many would place more credence in RR's claims if there was anything - links, etc. The "super secret insider information" shtick was, hmmm... "exposed" in the old LA thread as (trying to phrase this politely) not quite correct.

Also, from the forum rules sticky:

Issuing claims of information or quotes without listing sources or links will result in warnings or infractions.

Again, links instead of a wish list would allow others to evaluate the source(s) and contribute to the conversation in a more productive manner.

Anyone, feel free to post the links.

I will be out of the office next Tuesday and will not be able to access any news via the internet. I will check the stories on Wednesday.
