Were you ever offered drugs?
It's always been around but never to the extent that it was in the last 10 or 15 years, probably because the financial gain was never as big in my time as it was after that.

Sorry to get all Paxman about this, but were you ever offered drugs?
Yes.

By whom?
Well, when I say I was offered drugs I mean I probably would have known where to go if I wanted them.

Did you go there?
No.

I wonder if his nose grew at that point.

Doctor.House said:

Does it matter? Are you suggesting that the PDM lipid affair was a jealous lie?
That Sean kelly was clean?

Ever heard Kelly discuss Operation Puerto or blood doping on Eurorsport? He goes deathly silent----which is a big no no for media air time.

Sean Kelly's dramatic airtime pauses speaks volumes about his complicity with doping, denial and Omerta.

When you expect so little of yourself. Want me to brush your teeth too?

Besides your typical denial of the facts. YOU look up that PDM super roster (Alcala, Gert-Jan Theunisse, Breukink, Early, Rooks, and Kelly)---or better yet--watch the 1991 tapes for the 'food poisoning abandonment' which morphed into 'tainted injectable supplements after journalists noted that Indurain's Banesto ate at the very same hotel' or the Phil Liggett apologies for Sean Kelly's sudden exit. Or the sad on-camera interview with Kelly's Irish PDM teammate Martin Earley. All EPO doping cover stories.

Amazing! No wonder event promoters can easily dupe people. Why don't you look it up yourself, since you won't believe me in any case?

It is common knowledge and hardly a secret..

Do you donate tax-deductable money to the LIVE WRONG foundation too. Lance needs more cash.

i am neither easily duped nor distrustful. it would just be helpful if you learned how to write a sentence, tried to connect your far-flung dots, and posted comments that were at least a bit relevant to the topic at hand.

Doctor.House said:

Nothing far fetched about blood doping. It is a $25 BILLION industry expected to double in ten years time.

Topic at hand: Sean Kelly and doping. What?

No dots to connect. Short or long. Only naive fans clinging onto myths, cover stories, and denial. Quit imagining grey in a black & white doping case. We have the PDM manager's confession and Phil Liggett's imbecile apology on the record. And we have Hein Verbruggen's admission.

Team PDM overdosed on EPO in 1991. Kelly was a green jersey star of that team. Kelly was overdosed by Wim Sanders. Now he remains silent re: Operation Puerto, blood doping and doper confessions.

Time to remove those EPO fueled Sean Kelly ceiling posters. Armstrong was not the only clown to lie to you in this pharmacy circus.

Can you possibly understand how tedious it is to educate the world?

Written like a typical doper apologist.

It is clear that doping, sporting fraud and Nike themes motivate you.

Why do you bother posting on the racing??????

Go sell Lance Pharmstrong Nike bracelets for 25 cents!

Are you suggesting that these races aren't entirely clean?

Doctor.House said:

I am calling a spade a spade. You are a doper apologist and are infatuated with doping disclosures and race fixes.

Cow blood (Lance & company used Norway calfs)
Sean Kelly EPO overdosing (he is a ES talking head with a microphone now)
motorpacing (cool for McEwen)
selected rule compliance (hooks are allowed for Boonen)
TV theater scripts (189 riders all passed their drug tests last week)
Roid Landis has been handed cheaters justice---but not from USADA or WADA.

I think I've seen this list somewhere before. I remember - it was in the other 10,000 posts where you said the same thing.
