Ask TexPat that question. Ask Frankie that question. People that do come forward (as individuals) can expect an emotionally (and fiscally) crushing experience. Lance intimidates the hell out of his foes with attorneys and has a reputation of holding one hell of a grudge against people he feels have crossed him.
Ask Greg that question. It cost him his bike brand.
One thing to consider is why this man has such a unique (and growing) collection of enemies and "former" friends. Have you considered why he has so many haters?
The only one on that list I trust is Tex-Pat. In cycling there is only so much money and it is so hard someone will be squeezed out.
If Armstrong plays strong-arm I would say buyer beware, you knew what you were buying into.
People can cry because they feel slighted by Armstrong but he has shown that about himself from day one.
I read Darryl Webster here say that LeMond was such a nice guy and a gentleman. That has not been what I have seen, sometimes yes sometimes no.
If Armstrong is the douce that he is depicted by most here, why not shun him banish him.
In closing I see a lot of man-love for Armstrong here on the forum, even with Mr. LeMond, the two hate one another but it is only a nano- meter from true man-love for Armstrong, more magnificient than win 6....
