Ghost Company Scary Boo!

But c'mon, Lance has been open about paying Ferrari for years now.
Has openly admitted to paying hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Legit.

And BTW, it is Lance's accountants who really pay all those bills.
Lance had a Lazer Like Focus on riding.
Probably does not even know what a "ghost comapny" is.
What is a ghost comapny anyway?

Where has he admitted paying all of this money to Ferrari? He said he was his coach until he parted ways when he was indicted, but we all know that is a lie.

You're falling down polish...getting flat. You can do better than this. You even have me jamming you now.

wow I didn't read it that way at all. Along w the other thing that said the Italians are not investigating Armstrong. The writer makes it kind of clear? Is the Doctor banned from any contact w UCI members? or just banned from Italian fed. The fact that Lance has contact w this guy is pretty suspect for sure. Is there anyway to know what Ferrari's income is? and how many clients he had or had?
Does anybody know where the article is about him helping his daughter cheat in a race?

It was in Bicycling magazine a few years ago. Can't remember the year or issue. I read it at relative's place. I think it was actually on the cover.

Edit: this was obviously not the primary source, but they did mention it at the end of the article.

The article says the US Fed is investigating him. I think they were inncorrect to assume that because Lance is a US citizen the Italians are not thinking of charging him

Here is the Ferrari article

“Ferrari's daughter, Sara, was also a gifted athlete, Capodacqua told me. At one point, she ran a sub-2:30 marathon, even faster than her old man in his heyday. In 1999, she was competing in a triathlon in Lavarone, Italy. At 22 years old, she was ranked in the top 25 in Italy, and seemed sure to improve. On the bike leg of the race, however, she was spotted receiving a push from an older male cyclist, who turned out to be wearing a fake race number.

“She was disqualified. The man who pushed her: Her father.

“The story had been reported in the European press, but I'd never seen it. So my translator and I tracked down Italo Botter, the head judge of that race. Botter confirmed the story. He said he even keeps a report of the infraction framed on his office wall.”

Reference to the commencement of Ferrari providing services to Lance Armstrong.

“Their relationship began as long ago as 1995, when Eddy Merckx had called Ferrari, asking him to take on a new client, a young American who'd won a Tour stage as well as the San Sebastian Classic that year. Ferrari wasn't interested, he says, but Merckx persisted, and in November of 1995 Lance Armstrong came to Ferrara for the Test.”

Coincidentally, the next year LA contracted cancer.

Why would he have to "admit" to paying Ferrari?
Has Lance "admitted" to paying for groceries?

Anyway, the relationship with Ferrari is old news.
And Coach Ferrari is expensive.
Like Fabiani lol.

During the SCA testimony, Lance said he paid hundred upon hundred of thousands of dollars to Coach F.
Maybe a million or more.
Old news. You know that.

Polish, You know what happened to Pinocchio when he told lies?

Your nose needs dual nationality it is so long! :)

In his SCA testimony LA totally downplayed his relationship with Ferrari and made absolutely no statement that he paid thousands or a million to "coach" Ferrari as you claim.

On the contrary, Armstrong went evasive by being vague that he could not remember how much he paid him and the timing and basis of payments. LA perjured by testifying they met only a few times each year and Ferrari was only an "advisor" - Carmichael was his "coach".

The irony of your posts, to use one of your favorite terms: SSDD

Heck, even the paragraphs are all formatted the same.

Maybe time to go back to Dr Suess?

Back on topic, from the article:

They had noticed that a pharmacy in Bologna was moving a huge volume of EPO and other performance-enhancing drugs and supplements, so they wiretapped the store. On one recording, the store owner cackled, "Ferrari has emptied my pharmacy!"

Lance in Brazil

Lance will be at Sao Paulo/Brazil in next october.

He will do 2 events:

1 - 29/10 Lance Armstrong will give a lecture to 1500 people 1h30m, showing videos, pictures and details of his career. $250

2 - 30/10 Lance will ride 2h/50km with 400 "guests" in the streets of Sao Paulo. $ 300

http://gooutside.uol.com.br/lancenobrasil/index.html

The magazine go outside is promoving the event. In the main page they say:

The biggest champion of cycling history will come to Brazil in October and speaks exclusively to Go Outside of challenges, parenting and the visit to the country.

What do you think about this visit?

I think it is a nice oportunity for the fanboys to congregate with their idiotic yellow bracelets, which do not have ANY help for the cancer patients in Brazil whatsoever. The fools even paid as much as USD 30.00 bucks for a yellow piece of plastic and do not even know what is the meaning of wearing them. Pathetic to say the least.

But don't be surprised. This is the Brazilian people, known to carbon copy the American people and worship their false heroes.

It's a bit like when ageing bands suddenly decide to tour Eastern Europe. When they were big and famous and could sell out in the US and Western Europe they would never visit. Once no one wants to go and see them in the West then they come East. The fans in Eastern Europe will always go along because they've never seen their heroes up close, even though they are now old, fat, bald or with a serious crack problem.

I find it tragic that people are going to listen to what he might say about parenting.

How may illegitimate kids does he have now? What about the kids from his divorce? When does he have all the time required to be a parent?

Judging by the latest news he might be able to squeeze this one in before a prosecution/plea deal.

Fabiani just got a lot more expensive. lol.

That isn't "old news" that is a "new lie." lol

Like everyone else reading this, you appear, like that washed-up hasbeen Armstrong, to have lost your game.

It is sad to see a former champion stay in the game when the game leaves him...sad...
