Sorry Doc, but to me this looks like a bad con. Like people who actually bump there beater cars into a posh job while on the road. Then claim injury. They usually get away with it until the second or third time. :D

Sounds like you're talking from experience - was it a head injury?

He makes a second home in Aspen, CO., especially during the summer. For TH and crew to have known that he wouldn't be home on the 12th is dubious.
Wait, so your theory is that Hamilton deliberately went to Aspen and then to that particular restaurant and sat around just in the hope of running into Armstrong? That's hilarious.

Stick to that if you want to continue to be wrong.

The incident happened on Saturday the 11th - it was first reported in Grayson Schaffers twitter that evening - so it was the same day as LA was a thousand miles away in Tennessee so Hamilton would not have expected LA to be back in Aspen.

The Tennessean is well known newspaper. So they have there facts wrong?

Aspen is LA's second home. The restaurant/bar he often frequents. Having been a news type myself until I quit in disgust, I know journalists well enough. It really not as far out as you think it. :D

I'll ask again.

So you're saying Hamilton and Outside hatched this plot to ensnare Armstrong by scheduling their visit on a weekend when he was known to be out of town. That was their best shot, the best plan they could come up with.

Makes sense.

I'll give you credit for being smarter than that, so it does beg the question, why are you arguing something you know is nonsense?

Think of the paparazzi. The story begins to feed itself. In that regard, I find it
plausible. :rolleyes:

You mean the Outside journalists - damn, they had it all so well planned and then they actually forgot to have anyone right there to record the story.

I ask you: So what was known? The Tennessan reports this event took place on the 11th. Aspen does have a jet capale ariport. You do the math. But what day did this all take place? Reportly the 12th.:D

.....and the winner of today's

"Oh my God I can't believe I really am this *** edited by mod *** Award goes to ........"

whichever one of these panty waists arrived at the restaurant last. Because to me at least, it seems that arrivee 2 was tipped off to the presence of party 1 by some equally lame bottom feeder and came down looking to start some sh!t.

Couple of middle aged *** edited by mod *** silver haired gorillas thumping their chests in a very unmanly fashion. How very weak.

So who actually heard the exact words and is going to testify what happened between Lance/Tyler during this conversation?

Oh wait...probably Betsy/Frank who were in the room also.

I'm from Tennessee.

Trust me, if you use the Tennessean as your ultimate source on all things, you won't know very much.

The Tennessean is not a bad publication, but many of their stories are published looking like they haven't even been proofread.

So use the Tennessean as a source very carefully.

It's "their", not "there" and "suspicious", not "suspecious". I won't even bother with "capale ariport".

Former "news type" eh?

Plus, it seems The Tennessean can read a calendar just fine, thank you...

Cyclists try to keep pace with Lance Armstrong in Middle Tennessee ride

But his appearance Saturday at the Harpeth River Ride sent a buzz through Middle Tennessee’s cycling community as hundreds of riders and fans came out for the chance to see — and maybe ride with — Lance.

That would be Saturday, June 11.

I have yet to understand why intelligent posters keep engaging FlickertheKid in debate when he's just trying to drag the conversation down to his level?
it is dull, isn't it?

Had what well planned? Put TH at LA's bar and sit back and hope sparks to fly. :D
