I have and now my colon's calling. Hopefully less sh*t, more substance on the way...

Good - but I hope you don't suffer the drip drip symptoms though.

Maybe the substance today will contain fiber, for more regular and solid bowel movements.

I hear it also helps stop inverse diarrhea, the chronic disease where diarrhea emerges from the mouth instead of the colon. You and oldman maybe should go eat a box or two of one of those fiber enriched cereals.

Nope. As another Texan of note said: "Mission Accomplished".

Mark, whether or not the government spends money on investigations and trials and stuff should depend on whether we like the accused or not. Or, the amount of water he uses.

Just think of the savings! That national debt would be gone in no time. Plus, there would be more water for the rest of us!

If the government is continuing to spend money, then they are almost surely continuing to develop leads. I have seen no sign that government money is being wasted. The investigation has been really tight. We have no idea what the focus is. For all we know the focus could be on Eastern European dope smuggling networks.

If Armstrong ends up getting shredded as a consequence of the investigation (whatever the investigation is about), then tough for him. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. I'd love to watch the train wreck. If he skates, so what? Either way, it's not going to change pro cycling. The riders all support the dopers.

Certainly the Italian one is. The guy who will lose the most in this is Ferrari, he is in serious trouble.

Remember a few years ago when Wonderboy used a crazy amount of water for his house? Promised to fix it, blah blah

Yeah, that was a lie. Used 1.3 million gallons last year


http://www.kutnews.org/post/top-25-water-users-austin?nopop=1

To put this in perspective, our household of 5 used 22,200 gallons last year or 1/58th of Wonderboy's use.

 

[urban attacker]

Any day now

I was just talking to a long time friend about the Texas Rangers game last night and as we finished our two minute talk he said any day now.He had talked to some one that knows Lance personally that said it was not looking good for Lance.This friend of mine I,ve know for years also nows Lance personally is not a cyclist but has a lot of close ties to people around Lance.When he said any day now and not looking good as the holy grail we are looking for.

22,200 gallons is very low for a family of five. Good work!
In Lance's defense, he does shower regularly. Just saying.

When you say "we", I hope you mean you?

The FDA are the ones who initiated this investigation - unless you believe it is food I think it may have to do with the D part.

For all we know the focus could be on Eastern European dope smuggling networks.

Ya, I am sure the FEDs had Stephanie McIlvain in a GJ for 7 hours for some Eastern European network..

I see you have moved away from giving legal advise (smart idea btw) to this new mantra (not that smart).

Especially when dope testers are around.

 

[Anonymous]

In all honesty, I couldn't care less how much water Tex is using. Seriously, it seems a bit petty.

Hey @lancearmstrong - welcome to Boston. Let me know if u need any restaurant recommendations...

 

[Polish]

That makes him the most showered athlete in the history of sport.
Water Company has data to back that up btw. Squeaky clean.

 

[Dr. Maserati]

True - but the water feature did flush out some of those who pretend to not care to make a splash in his defense.

Seriously, it seems a bit petty.

Agree - also the reference to his Mother, whom I have met and she seems a very nice Southern lady.

I'm glad you're so certain that Lance is the focus of the investigation, Maserati. He might be. But there are other possibilities. If the feds were working on cracking Lance as a witness, they would also go after Ms. McIlvain's testimony, for example. I lack your certainty that the world revolves around Lance Armstrong. But you might be right. Maybe it does . . ..

I've never provided legal advice (nor "advise" [sic]) in this forum. I've given my opinion on a topic in the news. I may do so in the future. However, I really don't have much of an opinion on the psychological makeup of Lance's mom, Lance's genitals, or Lance's water consumption. IMO, those issues are for obsessive fanboys.

No, not the world - but the cycling doping world, then yes.

You are correct - I should have been more careful - you didn't provide legal advise[sic], you attempted to provide legal advise[sic].

Yes, you know how the French don't shower very often.

The day I spent with Frenchfry in Paris, he didn't seem to stink. Maybe I caught him on shower day.

Tyler made a funny
I like it.

Although that is hardly the kind of tweet we would expect to see from a "witness" who was intimidated or tampered.
Quite the opposite really.

It tells me that an indicment for "witness intimidation" is NOT in the works.
Or if it is, the Feds will not appreciate a taunt like that from Tyler.
Will hurt their case.

Anyway, why didn't Tyler join Levi at the "Ride for the Roses" last week?
Levi was very prominent in Austin.
Giving press conferences in support of Lance and The Ride.
Bet Lance would have liked to bury the hatchet lol.

Really????

I though Levi was the new enemy/great guy because LA was mean to him. This turn of events surely confuses the masses. Can one of the hater/predicter put up some type of flowchart so we can keep up?

*** edited by mod ***

And Levi will be left out in the cold because he went to The Ride for the Roses. He gets what he deserves. *** edited by mod ****

Touché. Excellent

 

[Race Radio]

Levi was very prominent in Austin.

Paid promotional appearances for Nissan and Trek, booked months in advance for a nice fee.

How many months? I can't remember, when did LA and Bruhneel start being mean to him? If it was after that he has some 'splain'n' to do.

Did he talk to LA in Austin? Maybe LA paid him a fee to talk to him, months in advance. Yikes!

 

[Cobblestoned]

Touché. Excellent

Not sure about that. My sense tells me that it was Polish who finished off this joke. The joke was done.
But tastes can be different of course. Some like it simple. Extending the joke was just something for the ordinary people and too predictable to be funny.
Perhaps it gets more funny when you support it with a good old american laughter-machine.

Are you aware of any other candidate to be considered a prospective Federal target who has lawyered up multiple lawyers of varying specializations, which includes PR crises management specialist Mark Fabiani, at a current cost said to be exceeding $3m?

The current world of Mark Novitsky does revolve around Armstrong.

You do provide legal advise/advice on this forum. But have been found wanting on many occasions when, I suspect, you cannot recall an applicable movie or TV court room drama on the issues in point.
