Poll - Lance Indictment Countdown

[Polish]

It is coming soon. We have been patient for so very long.

Closely guarded secret for sure.

Now its time to belly up to the bar and PREDICT.

When will the indictment(s) be handed down?

Wont happen he is above the law. as is UCI and all other cycling affiliates.

 

[CMDiva]

I predict Arbor Day

 

[flicker]

He won't be indicted. Unless, loving blondes and flying in a G-6 is a crime.

I hate to admit this, but I can't answer the poll because I have no idea when the Super Bowl takes place.

That said, it think an indictment has already been handed down under seal. When does Lance return to the US?

 

[AussieGoddess]

whens the superbowl?

If this occurs, it is an opportunity for the allegations never to see the light of day for Team Pharmstrong. I would think that Pharmstrong himself would need to be stateside for this to get the full effect of the sealed indictment. Cooperation in the investigation and a deal down to lesser charges looks like a best-case scenario for Wonderboy.

Martha Stewart fought the SEC all the way to the verdict. Let's hope Pharmstrong and his team has that kind of hubris. It also depends on the lead prosecutor and how much they are inclined to deal.

This comment is, based on my very limited understanding of the functions of a sealed indictment. Please jump in if I'm wrong.

LOL hahaha

Supposably the contador suspension is only 2days a way, if anything deserves a countdown that is it, but I can appreciate the persistent enthusiasm of the lance haters.

 

[AussieGoddess]

Thanks.

After that but before Valentines Day then ..

 

[on3m@n@rmy]

whens the superbowl?
Newbie - Please be nice to me

Feb. 6 ..........

That's ok. that'd be like me knowing when the 'footy' is

 

[Topangarider]

Indictment?

When does the grand jury meet again? Also, grand juries expire, no? If so, when does it expire?

 

[fujisst]

He won't get indicted - not in America anyway. Like Roger Clemens, his tan isn't dark enough. Mark my words, he'll be allowed to quietly fade into anonymity...

Martha's complexion looked better in the orange jumpsuit than Lance. Perhaps he'd think about cooperating to minimize his exposure to Club Fed. Oedipus Tex wouldn't fare to well him bein' shaved and all.

 

[King Of Molehill]

crazy thought

FYI I'm not 'pro lance' but why is it that we force a man who is playing within the rules set by the culture of the sport to have to cover up and lie to the point of being called a sociopath? The problem isn't Lance he's just an easy target because he has been so successful at doing something that (I suspect) is widely accepted within the culture of cycling. The problem seems to me that this very same culture/family of cyclists fail to protect their own when the **** hits the fan. I think Floyd is a great example of this. Let's assume that the UCI is the Godfather. Floyd gets nailed for testosterone at the tour and loses his ride. If he had been taken care of a bit by the UCI to help him get back on his feet and into the sport in some capacity then this entire investigation would never have happened.

i really hope the packers win, i can't stand ben rothleis******

 

[Race Radio]

Wonderboy's tactics are always the same

Tell the same lie over and over
Spin, Spin, Spin
Use political connections to lobby for clemency (Eric Holder is a hater)
Delay as long as possible, running up legal bills for both sides
Settle at the last minute
Claim "Victory"

Expect a steady stream of delay tactics followed by eventual capitulation.

Why doesn't Novitsky go after these suckers?

[jae2460]

No one forced Lance to lie. You live by the sword... He knew the risk he took when he first decided to follow "Omerta" and every breath he exhales and tells the same story inflates the balloon fuller. Eventually it will pop. The haters are more one-sided than the yellow bracelet clan and are hypocrites unless they hate Merckxx and every other rider who's ever doped. Lance didn't invent doping. He's probably the Richard Nixon of cycling--the worst thing Nixon did wasn't the break-in at Watergate by his staff, it was lying about it and trying to cover it up that did him in. So is the same for Lance. But, like Nixon, Lance will escape being indicted or convicted--you heard it here first. No way they're going to be able to get him and Novitsky is too smart to indict someone he can't convict. They'll claim it's not about Lance; and that's probably right...

 

[Barrus]

That's ok. that'd be like me knowing when the 'footy' is

The footy is almost every day

 

[DirtyWorks]

FYI I'm not 'pro lance' but...

You lead with a denial then fabricate junk just to make Team Pharmstrong's doping operations seem acceptable. Not 'pro lance' at all.

The problem isn't Lance he's just an easy target because he has been so successful...

Don't hate the playa. Hate the game! That Madoff guy was successful. But Madoff was an easy target because he was successful. The fact felonies were committed is unimportant at your level of pretending.

Do they give you some bullet points to make your own before you start trolling? I swear I see a slightly different version of your kind of pretending every few days. Is this what a struggling freelance writer is paid to do to keep the heat on until more desirable work comes?

 

[DirtyWorks]

Bzzt... Wrong

The haters are more one-sided than the yellow bracelet clan and are hypocrites unless they hate Merckxx and every other rider who's ever doped.

Start slowly with the notion that there is such thing as discussion that actually informs. Keep in mind that opposing sides of an argument can both be right. Shocking, right? But it's true!

Your reduction of the discussion to two ridiculous extremes contributes nothing.

 

[-shady-]

doesnt matter what happends to Lance, the damage is done

 

[thehog]

Someones been talking to Rupurt...
