As lean and long limbed as Olive Oyle was, I'll bet she could have been a world class cyclist.

Let's not kid ourselves, that gal was as doped as they come.
[Landis] also said in the e-mail that a team doctor gave him and Hincapie, who he said was his roommate during the 2003 Tour de France, syringes filled with olive oil in which andriol, a form of testosterone that can be taken orally, had been dissolved.

And have you noticed how out of control he get's when he "eats his spinach?" A clear case of 'roid rage if I've ever seen one. I'd have to say there's more than just spinach in that can. Talk about a fraud. I'm expecting a grand jury indictment any time. Soon. Very soon. Probably Tuesday.

The future cannot be vague. That's poor English. You could be vague about the future but not a vague future.

I'd say this Tuesday is a good one..... next week will be interesting.

Anyone up for a bet?

Soon. Very Soon. Let's just hope they make all of the defendants do the perp walk.

No, it hasn't. No-one has either said what he is referring to or provided any context.

None of you actually know, because you've just seen the bare quote as well. You think you know what he's referring to, which may just be what you want it to refer to. Just blatently state your answer and back it up and I'll be satisfied, rather than skirting around the issue.

Howman didn't mention Armstrong at all in the interview as published by Benson. Had he done so and that quote actually does refer to LA then I would suggest that the case is moving ahead well and my suspicions are wrong. That's why I'm interested.

What a surprise, Howman was indeed talking about the Armstrong investigation and not just ducks:
“Everyone wishes it finishes months ago but what we do know is that we’re not talking about doping, we’re talking about fraud. Doping is part of the fraud but it’s the fraud that goes to a very high degree of money so we’re not talking about dollars and cents, we’re talking about millions of dollars and involving people higher up than athletes so it’s pretty important we get it right.”

“And I don’t think anyone will be charged with fraud unless it’s right. So I guess they have to make sure they have their ducks in a row and then pull the trigger.”

And that was all I was asking for right from the start, but the rabid 'If you're not with us, you're against us' attitude of some posters went into overdrive rather than having an adult discussion.

Now, I see the context I can see that he was referring to the Armstrong case but also he says has no first hand information of what's happening. So who knows what's going on.

No he said he had no first hand information on Postal's doping thus he doesn't need to speak with the FDA - ie he can't give THEM first hand information.

Read boy

Yeah, you're probably right. Self-deprevation kicking in, I'm afraid.

I still remain very unconvinced that this case will yield that results that many of you crave.

You wish to have an "adult discussion" by dismissing those that spoon fed you its obvious meaning as rabid "with us or against us" types?

As for whats going on - well as we have nothing to the contrary then one can assume the investigation, that's whats goin on.

Instead of being general, why not be particular and inform us of your opinion of which ducks will survive unscathed?

Howman is as clueless as you.
He has no idea as to how the GJ is progressing/not progressing.
And that is good. The way it is supposed to be.

At least Howman admits that it is taking longer than he thought.
"Getting the ducks in a row" is his guess as to why it is taking so long....
There is only old news in this latest interview with Howman.
From last November.

C'mon Polecat...you know a press runup when you see it. Sounds to me like Howman is fluffing the media for what's coming next. Let's see...fraud, bribery, international distribution, money transfers; it all sounds so familiar. Must mean something's about to happen.

I think Howman is pretty clear and putting it all out there from his standpoint. For those who thought the investigation was vague and untethered....
I am waiting for an interesting week.
I have faith

Clueless, but again utterly failing about us having hard or soft months.
Still waiting for the hard month. All soft.

I can already see the handcuffs shiiiiining on Lance's wrist. Polished perfectly.

Hardly clueless. As he stated, he hears a great deal about this investigation from parties once or twice removed. Given the length of this investigation, there has been plenty of time for the various interviewees to communicate with each other. Why do you think your boy the Uniballer has lawyered up to the ever increasing extent that he has? Like Howman, Pound and others, he's hearing that people have turned on him (grants of immunity will do that) and that the game is moving to a most dangerous phase. His hubris has backed him into a corner where it will be near impossible to escape with no jail time. He's made it his own little zero sum game and he's not the one holding the advantage.

"I’ve not met with the enquirers. I don’t think I need to meet with them. I’ve not got first hand information, just second and third hand information which is not as good as the real thing," Howman admitted.

Sounds a lot like Howman's been made privy to a thing or two.
