Even if they do, that's nothing to do with McQuaid.

Yes and no.

Yes, he's no medical expert. No, what was Pat doing before his current title at the UCI? I'll give you a hint, managing UCI's road programs.

Since F4F's content was 21st century textbook of half-truths, bended truths, half-lies and full-on lies, I think it should be declared a PR monument.

Can the anti-fanboys perhaps let the hat go around and get the content reinstated to its former glory?
One day, a few decades from now, someone in PR will wonder "how did the best do it, in really desperate cases, whent he truth movement was gaining initial momentum"? Facts4Lance is THE place. A lot to learn. How not to...

It's a grand fiasco. Not only Lance may be going down here, Fabiani may not be able to get any jobs for a fraction of his current rate after this case. I think I could have done it better, no education getting in my way :)

“...Now that the heart of the "60 Minutes" story has been completely debunked by subsequent revelations, there's no need for the CBS-focused site any longer,” said Armstrong's lawyer, Mark Fabiani..."

The centrepiece of the '60 Minutes' allegation has now been completely destroyed, and we are evaluating all our options.”

Errr no it hasn't.

That is simply the most pathetic attempt at defense for a client. And there are six of them! OMG I just can't imagine the fees those guys are charging Lance. I think they should be investigated also for bilking an obvious guilty client.
This whole thing is just so laughable if the true story behind the fraud wasn't so sad. Not for Lance though. He'll get what's coming to him. Won't be pretty.

Fear not comedy fans - just google facts4lance.com and then open the cached page. It's all there.

Also works for posts deleted from here by CN mods ;)

I could be wrong, but hiding, as you say. I've only heard responses from his lawyers, but nothing from Lance.

Give the guy a break. He's just been chilling and enjoying the Giro. :)

You a soooo not getting a Christmas card from Lance this year. ;)

I've never gotten one yet, don't see why I should this year.....

And of course I must point out that the story was written by our managing editor Daniel Benson, and the only thing I had to do with it was posting the link here in the forum.

Exactly!!
Lance and his crew seem to have denial down pat, then they refer back to their own statements as fact! Saying something is true because you said it is and someone elses' statements are false because you say they are doesn't work too well with intelligent people.

Kind of a "did not, did to" exchange on the playground. Children will lie til the end because that's all they have. I would think an adult professional would have a bit more than a fact4lance type website and a lawyer who just says things to say them.

Do you really think it was taken down because they believe they've closed these issues? Or did they finally realize how bad this makes them look?

Lance is really showing the dumb athlete approach here. I didn't realize he was quite that full of himself.

It's good to see follow-up on this kind of thing.

I'm not sure what "subsequent revelations" he's talking about. Not that I'm giving any credence to the statement, but usually the lies are grounded in some kind of factual occurrence and then twisted for the PR purposes. In this case I can't figure out what he's even trying to twist.

He means the Saugy comments.

Pulling the site while claiming they have debunked the 60 min. program is the equivalent to running back to Plano to live in a used double wide. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. Fabiani is marvelous entertainment. Thank you Lance for keeping him on retainer. :)

I can only guess that at some point, Big Tex actually saw the website and went completely ballistic that he spent so much money for something that was done so poorly. I think half the people who saw it thought is was some sort of parody. I know I did.

I think this Fabiani character may actually be our beloved BPC.


What handle is he using these days, anyway ??

District 9 was the last great supporter but he hasn't degenerated into fits of rage yet.
