nice one Chris
Going to be a fun time until Thursday in the clinic
too bad Lance is too busy lately to catch a night out at the Yellow Rose
"I have absolutely no regret. I would repeat it," Saugy told the AP, explaining that Armstrong and other riders at that time had a right to information about false positive results in the relatively new EPO test. "They wanted to know what is the basis of the fight against doping."
My main question for Tygart is simple: the same one I put to UCI.
Why did you do NOTHING for so long when there was a clear problem?
They UCI and USADA including Tygart are jointly guilty of fiddling whilst Rome burned. And then having done nothing for so long why did he not even allow a few days of diplomacy to persuade Armstrong to come clean, he did not even give it a chance. 48 hours to come in on his terms when Armstrong was not even in the country.
Any hope of a link to the Scott Pelley's show, this early after airing?

There are serious doubts about what he says. Take this today.

Quote Saugy - "I would like to ask him (Tygart), really personally, why did he say that, because personally it was not the case." In short Saugy says that Tygart is lying.
mewmewmew13 said:Oh
Lets try to ramp up this smearing and discrediting of Travis and USADA!
We know Lance is going to go full tilt at this on Oprah.
rah rah!

Merckx index said:So I was right in the other thread (now closed) when I suggested that Saugy could say, in reply to Tygart’s statement about “the keys to the EPO test”, that he was just reassuring LA that he wouldn’t have to worry about false positives:
Not saying I believe or don’t believe Saugy, but this is certainly what I would expect him to say. Riders do have a right to have information that will reassure them with regard to false positives. And to repeat what I said on that other thread, it’s very unlikely Saugy could have told LA anything about the test that would have helped him beat it. It had already been published by then, I’m sure Ferrari was familiar with it, and the doctor’s main breakthrough was realizing that an IV injection at night would get EPO out of the body before a morning test. Nothing about the EPO test per se would have led anyone to that insight.

ChewbaccaD said:I wonder how long it will be before he has his special interview with Oprah to confess about all the things he lied to Oprah about the first time?
mountainrman said:One explanation consistent with both?
A media sting that failed. They wanted to know whether USADA would accept bribes to protect armstrong when the heat was on. They did not, so no meeting and no story.
There are plenty of media stings similar in the past in other sports - money for fixing games for example
so in this case it may have been a 3rd party who called.
So both Tygart and Armstrong are telling the truth as they know it.

Huh? Armstrong's argument that his team did not try to bribe USADA, as stated on Oprah stage 2, was that the bribe wasn't mentioned in the Reason Decision.mountainrman said:Except in this case it is not Armstrong who is using this argument - I do not think it has occurred to him.

That's the same kind of diverting argument as when saying he didnt dope because he wouldn't because of the cancer.
That's the kind of diversion he floats when he's lying.
