Lance, is that you? Holy cow.

I have printed this post out and put it in my wallet for when I am having a really bad day and need to smile about smething.

Full on Battleship Galac-tard. What the heck are they putting in the Kool-aid? You're gonna put the makers of ecstasy out of business! :)

It's like your brain completely spun out the gear. But when all you have is a 34X32 and you're going downhill you have to expect that.

I expect his response will be somewhat delayed as he googles "34X32" :)

What the heck does 34x32 mean?

The first number, is your waist measurement in inches. I.e. 34x32 means a 34 inch waist.The second number "x32" is the inseam (leg) length. But don't be confused...x32 is the standard leg length worldwide. Almost everyone takes a x32 leg. 99% of the pairs we sell are x32 leg. The main thing to work out is your waist measurement.

the yellow wristband made cancer "touchable".... talkable. Made it real. Made people DEAL with it.

Pink ribbons did that long before the world had ever heard of Gunderson. As Kimmage said, Lance doesn't have a patent on cancer. Livestrong failing wouldn't even make a dent in the treatment of cancer, because it doesn't have anything to do with cancer other than self-promotion.

no holds barred commentary from Patrick Smith in the Australian yesterday:

http://www.theaustralian.com.au/spo...out-lances-guilt/story-e6frg7uo-1226457712554

(if it comes up "log in", then go to google and type "patrick smith rollover" and you should get a direct link)

Good article.

"That is what drove his decision yesterday not to contest charges laid by the US Anti-Doping Agency. That and the fact that he can always point to 500 and more drug tests - his estimate - that never returned a positive. Armstrong reckons that, combined, these two factors form his get-out-of-ignominy card. But they don't and they shouldn't."

"He argues it would have been be too stressful for his family. That is a hard position to accept. More stressful than having your father officially declared the world's biggest sporting cheat and see him stripped of his seven Tour de France crowns? Only fools would believe that."


"Armstrong's decision not to contest the charges must be seen as acknowledgment that he was - and remains - one of the great sporting frauds. But worse than that is the deception suffered by the millions who followed him not for his cycling but on his cancer campaigns."

They are claiming 25x increase in donations to 78k.

Understood Lance was in Aspen for a bike race, easily could have come from a single donor.

78k a day x 365 days = $28,470,000 per year.
They claim to have raised $450,000,000 in 15 years which comes out to 30,000,000 per year.

Looks like their pace for the day was below their average pace.

That is a lot of calculator work when you should just believe whatever Lance says.

:rolleyes:

More lies:

Armstrong's lawyer, Robert Luskin, said the decision to bow out of the fight against USADA was not an admission of guilt to any doping charges. He said between appeals and arbitration, the battle likely would have lasted beyond 2016 and could have cost millions of dollars.

''I think Lance ultimately decided he'd rather be eaten alive by zombies than locked in a room with lawyers for the next five years of his life with no promise at the end of it that there would be any peace,'' Luskin said.

Protocol. You should have started a poll to get a consensus.

It is the democratic way not the dictatorial conduct that you may admire and seek to replicate.

Ah, Lance's lawyer is Robert "gold bars" Luskin.

He got that nickname when he represented convicted money launderer Stephen A. Saccoccia and was paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees in the form of gold bars.

Now why on earth would lance need a lawyer with expertise defending large scale money laundering?

If that wasn't enough, Luskin was one of Cheney & Rove's favorites and represented Scooter Libby in defense of the treasonous act of outing CIA agent Valerie Plame.

Such a surprise that Lance consorts with such paragons of virtue.

Bring on the Federal case

Hit him harder because
He still doesn't get it

This is the last thing I want to see. Federal Case = Jury. Just one Fanboy on the jury means mistrial.

I would rather see a lawsuit by the US Postal Service.

the punishment is extremely disproportionate. saying someone doesn't like you and you think they're fat is not the same as having 14 years worth of incredible achievement being wiped out. armstrong gets far worse directed at him on twitter every day. i think people have gotten a bit carried away in making out armstrong is a big monster. you don't have to like him, but this list of stuff that gets wheeled out about him doesn't cut it now he's been punished. where's the beef?

1) Without sophisticated doping, evidence suggests Armstrong at best is an occasional minor Classics Winner, not a Tour de France Champion,as prior to 1999, he could not climb nor time trial.

2) His doping defrauded SCA Promotions of millions of dollars.

3) His very cancer might have been a direct result of his doping. Certainly, its rapid metastasis was caused by doping. Then he has the gumption to hide behind his charity work, much in the same way as the convicted pedophile Jerry Sandusky and his Second Mile Foundation.

4) He continually lies about his doping and boasts about being "clean". He is an insult to our collective intelligences and sense of fair play.

5) He is ruthless and vindictive, including destroying a relationship with the very people who were there for him when he needed them the most.

6) While being very sensitive to his own "defamation," he has no problem defaming others.

Not a monster? Right.

PS. Anyone, please feel free to add to the list.

Sorry to ask, but what is an AFLD?

AFLD (Agence Française de Lutte contre le Dopage) is to France as USADA is to USA. It is France's national doping agency (NDA).

Nemesis of all American riders :)

he wouldn't want to anyway. he's a big anti cancer doctor that doesn't give a crap about some bike race in france. what he cares about is armstrong's work against cancer. priorities.



No, the only thing he cares about is Lance continuing to give him.$$$.
