USADA to ban Armstrong for life and strip of his seven (7) Tour titles. :-(

[rajagra]

I can't believe the 'truth and reconciliation' line he's coming out with. What pretentious terminology! He's still trying to come out of this smelling of roses like some kind of ambassador for justice. What an arrogant {fill in the blank.}
He seems to be completely disconnected from reality. He probably believes that Beyonce sang live. (Another sad tale of cheating and dishonesty!)

The problem with Lance Armstrong is not that he doped, but the fact that he vehemently denied it, despite having done it. It is kind of like being pulled over for speeding and insisting that you did nothing wrong. At that point, leniency goes out the window.

Unfortunately, his training regimen was very poorly thought out. He came from a part of Spain that is essentially flat, and close to sea level, and he did almost all of his training close to home, so he found the portions of the Tour de France (and other races) that went through rugged mountains and elevations very hard to cope with.

I'd say Indurain did okay.

I thought we were done with Lance. Ready to forget about him forever. I mean seriously, he was never even accused of using deer velvet.

Who knew that deer velvet acted like HGH?
Next thing they'll be telling us that rhino horn and tiger penii really ARE good for the nudge nudge wink wink say no more

But, didn't you hear?

Indurain from Spain rides mainly in the plain.

He seems to embody the sense of entitlement that is, unfortunately, rampant right now.

 

[alex2363]

He still became rich and wealthy off it...he should return any related money from it and give it to charities.

They found steroids in Oscar Pistorius's house after his girlfriend's death.
Believe it or not, he could end up citing steroid use as his defence in the murder trial!

That's two "heroes" who have created great public disappointment within a few months of each other.

Tough times to be a fan of athletes

Steroids are not an excuse for murder, i dont think that shooting his girlfreind 4 times thru a shut door merits Roid rage, more like insanity and ruthlessness.

On a related note, I think we should postpone the taking copious amounts of steroids and drinking heavily, handgun passaround get-together until the dust has settled a little on this one

Guys, I have been injecting myself with all sorts of PEDs and I have not noticed any improvement whatsoever in my data entry skills. Either Lance was telling the truth or "performance enhancing" is a total misnomer.

When the spring (or whatever it was) malfunctioned and the candy would get stuck in the bottom of that thing, I would get serious Pez rage.
