[Reuters] Tour de France winner Landis positive in drug test, team says

If anyone seriously still thinks Armstrong was not full of dope when he won those tours (I assume everyone else was as well), then they are totally delusional.

Of course, Armstrong keeps lying. He is the biggest liar and cheater of them all.

 

its bicycling. no one cares

 

Words...words...words.

this.

 

Great. So you disown your hero if he's a cheater but proclaim he's An America Hero if he wins?

 

Landis was lying for years, just like Armstrong has been lying for years. It's like a Mafia. They were all lying. Jan Ullrich, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. It's sickening.

Good for Landis that he is coming clean now. Armstrong will keep lying, but hopefully people will start seeing through his lies.

KingCheetah, just like you did not want to believe it about Landis, you might still be in denial about Armstrong (like I was initially in denial about Ullrich). I just think the whole sport of cycling is messed up.

 

What a joke! He deserves to be spit on for that years long charade and milking of $2,000,000 for his defense fund. Really, he deserves a lot worse. I hope those donors go after him in civil court.

 

KingCheetah...where are you?

 

I still don't think Armstrong used EPO.

 

He is currently observing Ramadan and cannot answer you at this time.

 

I suppose that's why Armstrong is one of the richest and most recognizable athletes.

 

Anyway I'm dissapointed but not surprised about the latest evidence against Armstrong. Still I think we need to see some more before absolutely declaring him a cheater considering that Landis is trying to save his own ass and might just be doing this to redeem his own reputation by dragging Armstrong down.

 

The difference between Armstrong and Landis is that Landis tested positive and Armstrong didn't. I don't know how he keeps passing them.

 

Magic.


Funny how accusations are considered "evidence" of wrong doing now. Sounds like a bunch of Haters to me.

 

Cyclists blood dope...it's not prevalent it's universal. If we wanna cover our eyes in order to preserve our image of cancer survivor and RealAmericanHero(TM) Lance Armstrong that's o.k I guess, but it doesn't make a lick of sense.

I personally don't care...other than I like it when Americans have success at sports the rest of the world cares about more than we do (soccer is probably the biggest example). As far as sitting down to watch more than highlights of a bike race I would be more likely to watch golf and that isn't likely at all.

 

Cyclists in the rest of the world cannot accept Texas' superiority at their sport. In most other fields (there are minor exceptions like curling and dogsledding where Texas doesn't yet dominate), the rest of the world has resolved themselves to their inferiority, but they were holding out on cycling. After Lance Armstrong dominated their sport with no performance enhancing drug other than Hill Country air, smoked brisket, and Shiner Bock, they do everything they can to tear him down.

 

a buddy of mine on the cycling circuit told me about 7-8 years ago that just about every top performer in their sport was doping and it's common knowledge amongst all the cyclists

 

I wonder if I'd start doping if I cycled professionally...? probably...

I bike for exercise and the fun of it, but if I was a pro I'd be doping no doubt. Gotta get that good HCG/HGH/Purple Kush

 

They have tested and retested countless samples of Armstrong's blood and still can't bust him. I don't want to bet my house that he was innocent, but the evidence sure ways heavily in his favor.

 

Lance Armstrong is an outstanding Texan, an American hero, a cancer survivor, and Sheryl Crow sloppy seconds.

If he says he wasn't doping, I believe him.


Why? Because he is America, and they are France. You know what they do in France for fun? They hate America and call us uncultured trolls, then they drink themselves into a stupor and forget to bathe for weeks.

France needs to shut their whiny asses up and get back to being the Clippers of Earth.

ALL HAIL GLORIOUS HERO OF AMERICA LANCE ARMSTRONG: RULER OF EARTH, BEATER OF FRENCH, HEIR TO THE THRONE OF OUR CHRISTIAN GOD!
