Official Lance Armstrong Thread: Part 3 (Post-Confession)

[Djave Bikinus]

By what? The timing? Do you think Armstrong heard about the crash and got straight on the blower to CN?

Or do you think Armstrong had his goons ice up the road between Greg's house and his dentist?

[Fortyninefourteen]

Am I the only one who is slightly disturbed by this?

Armstrong was seen driving a Zamboni on that very road minutes earlier. He continued on and drove it into a UCI transport vehicle, whose doors closed immediately after it entered.

 

[Djave Bikinus]

He he he thanks for that descender

I'm on the "lets cut Lance some slack if, and only if, he spills the beans on Hein and Pat"-bandwagon.

Sports illustrated had a great article on Mike Anderson earlier this month:



in the end, it's not just about the doping; it's about so much more! yet Lance is trying to make it all about doping, only doping, and doping that is as common place as wiping your ar$e after taking a dump.

No contrition or humility, just a concentrated PR campaign to play the victim and reduce everything to a bit of doping, just like the others. He is dragging as many as he can into the mess, including some that have never been implicated or convicted of doping. Sick.

I think this is why Tygart is finally going to the media in order to remind the world just what the real issues are.

Sometimes I feel like a lifetime ban wasn't enough.

By the way, Le Monde has picked up on the cyclingnews so called interview.

[Mrs John Murphy]

My guess is Stapleton wrote this. Another idiot who deserves to go down with the ship SS Armstrong.

Let's see Benson show some balls and write the follow up questions;

1) Are you accusing LeMond, Hinault, Indurain and Bartali a dopers? Based on what?

2) Why are you not calling Verbruggen pathetic?

3) Why should everyone get the same punishment? No everyone doped the same!

C'mon Benson write a follow up email and if you dont get a repy publish it any way?

Benson needs to ****ing learn about what TRC is, what is involved and what is not involved. It is not a ****ing amnesty. What he thinks it is and what it actually is are two different things. For ****s sake, if he can't get the basics right before spouting off about it to the Uniballer (in an interview so soft I'm surprised Larry King didn't phone up and complain that it lacked teeth), then there is no hope of actually getting a properly organized TRC. Afterall, if UCI TRC is what Benson thinks TRC then it won't be TRC at all just an amnesty and back to how you were.

Benson, never has anyone been so skilled at ****ing up every opportunity that comes his way.

Nothing new really comes out of the interview other than that the Uniballer is ****ed off about being thrown under the bus and is making excuses. The amusing thing is that he has obviously been reading his apologists excuses and is now repeating them back. (Does this count as shark jumping?)

 

[86TDFWinner]

For someone not outing others he sure put some names on the list. What an Arrogant, Self Serving, Pitiful AS* that excuse for a human being is!

Agreed. He is the lowest form of scum.

oui, i linked it several pages back from the original L'Equipe article.

Can someone tell me what a doping control inspector is? Is it another field role filled largely by volunteering or someone in a lab?

The guy who collects the samples from the athletes (The tester)

I think it's voluntary.

the ones that show up at athletes' houses and the like...

 

[Granville57]

Oh bravo CN and D. Benson! What a splendid "exclusive interview"!

Look at us! Look at me! I got to interact with Lance Armstrong!

Wow. Really riveting stuff!



And gee whiz, it turns out that Lance is still a complete and total f'ck head. Now who would've ever thought?

But keep on giving him headlines. That'll sure teach him.

Let them take 20 minutes in the shower etc

a spot of tea, sir?

 

[Irish2009]

Just for the record Roche never tested positive.....just saying.

 

[Briant_Gumble]

Mike Tyson comes to Lance defense describing him as an "awesome human being".

http://m.cbsnews.com/storysynopsis....an-being/&feed_id=1&videoid=37&catid=57566728

Always thought Tyson used some heavy anabolics myself, looks so much more like a Mr Olympia contestant than boxers from the 70s who trained exactly the same way like Ali, Foreman, Frazier etc.

If it ever got out that he was a user then he'd be a poster boy for the dangers of PEDs being a convicted rapist and all.

Nothing says good publicity like getting the thumbs up from a rapist.

 

[reginagold]

Lance is still living in his all about what's good for me bubble. Shhh. Don't tell anyone but....there will NEVER be a T and R program. WADA can't give immunity from criminal prosecution for nationa/ international distribution and money laundering.

If that's the "only" way forward, the sport is done. It can not happen. A waiver of criminal violations by a dozen or more countries where people are doing hard jail time for the same actions?

Let's get serious at some point.

Your being a little harsh on poor Mikey. ...once he got so hungry during a fight he had to bite someone's ear off and yet here you are dredging up these old, tired, proven, allegations....for the record he never tested positive for ear or ear-based derivatives.

[The Gnome]

got this month's issue of cycle sport...good interview with Lemond...he tells a story wherein Lance's Mother asks him in the early 90's: :" Can you help my son not be such an *******?"

 

[leftover pie]

exclusive interview was disappointing, we really need Stephen Sackur from BBC's Hardtalk, he would tear him to shreds.
