Lance Armstrong ‏@lancearmstrong 20h
@dpTomlinson @smnb fair enough. So no heroes for you?

smnb ‏@smnb 19h

Lance Armstrong ‏@lancearmstrong 19h

Lance Armstrong ‏@lancearmstrong 8h
@nailbomb3 @smnb was NEVER offered that deal

Race Radio ‏@TheRaceRadio 2h
.@lancearmstrong What was your response when USADA invited you in to talk? You can't expect to get a deal if you tell them to **** off

Thanks.

Still playing the victim. Outstanding.....I wonder if her really thinks that will play to his favor.

His cooperation is of no value at this point, and with every day that passes his relevance is being erased.

How can he complain about others getting off "scot free" when action from him could bring down the likes of Popovych, Horner and Ekimov?

And probably quite a few others. It's impossible to think of monkey mouth as a sympathetic figure until and unless he spills the beans-all of them.

This piece-meal approach just enforces the fact that he's only sorry he got caught.

Amazing that the messages from him and Bruyneel are so incredulous.....'none of this would be happening if we would have hired Floyd'!!

I didn't see this posted just up the thread. It's from the same twittering conversation, maybe a little later?

@lancearmstrong but look at it like this,you were banned on what is known. Maybe if it was all known,maybe everything will be different

Of course, the only problem is Wonderboy going full disclosure would probably lead to criminal charges for him. But, it would be nice to better draw the cast from Tailwind (Thom, Bart, and the rest) and Hein, Pat and the Management Committee into the fraud story.

This is fascinating. armstrong is implying that he was prepared to cooperate with USada. And might have done so if he were offered the same deal as zabriskie, danielson et al. I don't believe him for a second but someone who is on his twitter radar should put the question to him: would he have taken that deal? A confession, A loss of all his doped results and a 6 month ban.

Let me see if I have this right: Do you find any of the others to be "sympathetic figures"? Because it's notable that none of them "spilled the beans - all of them".

They all offered piecemeal under the dictate of a federal judge.

Not Floyd.

Why is monkey mouth whining about his life sentence? He knew well in advance what was going to happen.... And it did. There were multiple opportunities to cooperate but he chose his money. Which he may lose anyway. Not that MM needs to be viewed with sympathy, but why else tweet that garbage?

This isn't going to get better for him until he lays it all out there (which he will never do). Still thinks he's in control I suppose.

And yeah, Zabriske is at least one I have some sympathy for.
 
Lance. Buddy. Get a grip. Like some of the other riders in question, the entire beans were not spilled. Unlike any of the other riders in question, you attempted to use your wealth and influence to destroy USADA knowing full well your attacks were built on a foundation of your own lies.

Apples to apples, right? Sure, in whatever fantasy land you are living in Lance. Must have been the same fantasy land where you went to play with the unicorns.

I don't understand the "federal judge" part. It's an arbitration process. The athletes gave testimony under penalty of perjury. No federal anything involved unless they started lying.

Based on the affadavit's I've read, I agree tha none of them have been fully truthful. If any of them told me it was raining outside, I'd go check for myself.

As far as Lance goes, it's all talk. It always is because it's a dialog about him. Even if he could sort the truth from fiction, and was ready for criminal prosecution some honesty is impossible.

So pathetic. He's going to need some serious coaching if he wants to fool anyone about having seen the light and being an asset for the forces of Good.

One only has to see his cameo in Dodgeball (the movie) to see that is not possible. Doprah helped anyone who watched easily believe the guy is a creep.

I have a feeling that Monkeymouth wanted to spill the beans but Weisel, Stapleton and others have a gun to his head and can do far more damage to him than others.

Not a direct quote, but both he and Bruyneel are of the position that none of this would be happening if Floyd would have been under contract and not gone to USAC and then the media.

Neither is sorry in the least, just sorry they misjudged Floyd.

I have a feeling Lance is still protecting his buddies to whom he has business dealings with..otherwise I think the guy would have gone full *** a long time ago. Perhaps he aided this Mike Plant dossier.

I'm not sure if this has been discussed, I've not followed every post in all the threads about LA.

Reading the article about Rabobank and their use of the Sysmex blood analysis machines it struck me that maybe one of the reasons LA "donated" the machine to the UCI was so that the team doctors/trainers etc could ensure that the analysis the team were doing would get identical results to the analysis that the UCI were doing. I always thought there must be a payback for the donations I just hadn't been able to see what it might be.

This may have already been discussed but I can't remember seeing it, so if it has sorry.

cheers,

RaceRadio claimed somewhere in one of these threads that Wiesel and Wonderboy are not on speaking terms. That seems plausible to me as the whole Doprah extravaganza would have been taken personally by Wiesel as breaking omerta.

Plant is a higher-level guy than Wonderboy. Plant is Wiesel operative since even before Wiesel's takeover.
 
MM is at it again on Twitter...

Funny that he used to refer to the journo's as trolls, considering he'd have to be the biggest troll out there...
