Bets on Armstrong making the TDU?

Interesting comment by Neil in the comments section of that article:
All that said perhaps I am a hypocrite. When I was the editorial director at ROAD we had a deal with Astana to get first crack at them regarding interviews and the such. Would we have written a bad word about them? Hell no! Having an Armstrong interview was magazine gold and ensured the life of the ROAD as well as my job. I also know from talking to my peers that they somewhat have their hands tied because someone like Armstrong welds a lot of power. If Armstrong hates a magazine he could say to a sponsor, “Stop running ads in magazine XYZ” and that would fold it.

I have been referring to it here for a few weeks but didn't want to go into too much detail as all that does it give Herman more billable hours.

In addition to doping expect a good analysis of the many conflicts of interest of Lance and Livestrong. The writers are very experienced investigative reporters who broke much of the A-Rod story, they will do the story justice. Armstrong should be concerned that he has so many good writers on his tail.....at the same time so many "Friends" no longer scared of him anymore.

The Trolls will come out of the woodwork.

I for one am anxiously awaiting it. It will be nice to have a few facts and fewer opinions for a change. Maybe that is too much to ask! Here's to wishful thinking.

Really, why would you care? I thought you weren't a "fan"?

Much of what will be presented will be information we have been discussing here over the past number of months. - but it will be nice to have it corroborated by an independent publisher.

Milo.....poised and ready to commence shoveling.:cool:

Coming your way, I'm wearing my hip waders in anticipation of what you might add! It may get messy, but it won’t be dull. Who knows, we may end up on the same side on this one; you never know. Have a good Holiday!

Lance will NOT start the TDU....
Well, if he starts he will NOT make it into Strathalbyn.....
Well, if he makes it into Strathalbyn, he still WON'T finish.....
Wel, if he finishes he is still a TURD.

Hey, maybe he wil get the squirts and miss the race?

No way known. Lance is an inspiration. I mean he basically cured cancer and won 37 Tour de Frances. Not 37 Frances but 37 Tour de France's. Lance would never dope. Like how many tests did he have? No athlete was tested more times than Lance. They even tested him when he was taking p1ss once. I heard that when he was giving birth they tested him.*

Conflicts of interest and being chased by good writers.....scary.

What happened to RICO charges and being chased by the Feds?
Handcuffs. Jail Time. Balco.
Or Global Drug Distribution....Massive Tax Evasion.....Frauding the USA?
Using taxpayer monies to buy EPO. TREKS for DRUGS.

Conflict of interest?
StrongArming Rich Dudes for big LAF Donations.
That is called Fund Raising Lance Style.
How many mega millions will the LAF get from the Demand Media "deal'?

Just to add to this - as this is the 'whispers' thread.

There is another article due in the not too distant future but from the other side of the Atlantic that will be a tsunami by the time it hits the US.

Does anyone know where I can order a steaming hot plate of crow for delivery to the House of Polish when it all comes out? Sadly, there are no crows in NZ, and I'm afraid the dish would've grown cold and foul by the time it reached the shores of the good ol USA anyhow.

sorry hog, but "The Lance Scandal" will blow over even faster than the Tiger Woods Scandal. Will blow over like a summer storm in the Alps...

And most Cancer Survivors are so forgiving it is not funny.
It is wonderful.

Enjoy the media frenzy while it lasts:)




ps....better the scandal comes out now versus during a political campaign.

Danger!.........
