So when Armstrongs team mates were doping to 2005 to keep up with Armstrong, so does that mean Armstrong had to dope as a helper for Contador to help him winning the Tour????
To be fair, Armstrong wasn't really a domestique for Contador in 2009. Sure, he marked Frank Schleck pretty well, but other than that he more or less rode against Contador.
But it's not my problem when Mr. Armstrong misinterprets "Team", he was still a team mate of Contador or weren't they team mates?

How do you know the Earth is round ? You've never experienced it yourself, so it might as well be flat.
People say it's round ? Fuck them and all who believe them, they probably have some (financial) interest in claiming that.
Pictures ? Photoshop allows people to make them up so easily.
I've read a book by a man who spoke with his heart and guts and claimed the Earth was flat. I believe him. How could such a great man lie ? |

A certain Mr Verbruggen is now denying ever stating that Armstrong never doped. Once again he is proving himself to be an outstanding figure of incompetence.

So I just got in with time to start reading. Man theres alot of stuff. First thing I random picked was Levi's testimony.
Seriously, if you havent read that yet, do so. Not sure if others have got similar stuff but it shows why USADA didnt want to announce to the world who all those that had testified was in a hurry. Sending menancing texts to a dudes wife? Thats even worse then doping! |

According to a swiss online newspaper Cancellara said something like: It is logical that you find something if you dig up 10 year things.
Basically he said: It is does not matter who you look at, it is only a matter how close you look. I already believed that everybody was doping back then but if even cyclists say it so directly... |

The "I've been racing clean for more than 5 years" was only mentioned in his WSJ blog, wasn't it? I can't see him explicitly saying he stopped using drugs at any point in in his affidavit (unless I’m reading 91. wrong). |

You gotta love the fact that Riccardo Ricco has shown his support for Armstrong by calling him a great champion!
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

Oh I dont know. All this Lance armstrong evidence is pretty hillarious too. Or... it makes the denials hillarious at any rate. Some of the comments are brilliant though.
Really liking how Lance keeps EPO in the fridge next to the milik XD |

The more I read this evidence, the more glad I am that USADA has pushed this. Its not even about the drugs.
Its the lies and harrasment of people who dare speak honestly that is most disturbing. |

Which kinda blows the "They are all malicious jealous gits that have nothing to lose" argument out the water.
Although I imagine a couple will probably announce retirement and it wont be too big a deal for them.
EDIT: Also interesting is that the UCI will HAVE to appeal this. Theres so many references to them being complicit in covering it up that if they dont they basically will be admitting thier guilt. Which is likely another reason Lance isnt going to say anything anymore. His just going to the UCI "Its your problem now!

Not really top riders anyway anymore. They had their (doping) time, now they can come clean and get out of it, I guess. |

I always knew he was a doper.
All this evidence coming to light though has made me stop and think hard. What if he's been set up by the tobacco companies?
Or USADA are really out to get him.....for doping. |
