Lance's Oz Fee Press Blackout-Bad For Image

[thehog]

Check out CycleSport magazine this month. They overlay Armstrong’s, Wiggins and Basso's blood values over one another. Each did the Giro and the Tour with the exception of Basso but he kept posting his values. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out was going on between the 3 cyclists. 2 looks to be relatively clean and "dip" where by Armstrong has the blood values of a 21 year old man on Spring Break post the 2nd race day at the Tour!

Indeed- the problem now is that "magical weight loss" & the "regained Climbing form" and all that bullsh!t cannot be linked/related/analyzed with his "blood values", since he's no longer willing to publish them.
in any case seems to me that LA's PR approach is to inflate his gains to the public in order to maintain those crazy fans exited--at least untill the Tour begins...

He doesn't look like he's lost 4 kilograms or that he could afford to lose 4 kilograms. Maybe they are trying to set up a Wiggins type-story to help explain his soon to be regained climbing form.

Absolutely the rational.
So, to us, he turns out to be transparent, when he tries to hide the truth and opaque, when trying to appear transparent!

So it's definite that Livestrong had nothing to do with funding that wing? In that case, it's a disgrace. There was me thinking Livestrong had actually done something beneficial but it turns out it's effectively just LA's "fee" for riding TDU?

I dunno, I read the headline and thought the same thing - "Wow I might need to rethink my attitude towards Livestrong" only to read the article and not read anything about Livestrong actually funding it.
