Yet another mentally challenged response.House said:Nice response, shot down all over the place. What a joke you and your obsession are.
Once again I ask, do you actually pay attention to the complete and utter **** that flows from you???Flyer said:Yet another mentally challenged response.
Just make sure your House is below ground. You won't like the doping confessions and embarrassments when you first hear them.---from your favorite riders. Obviously, you are not moved by other Champions and peers of LA.
Eventually you will grow to accept that anemia, renal failure and bovine plasma oxygen solutions may actually save the lives of many critically ill non-athletes.
In this context, the TDF is a monument of clinical trials. It may lead to the perfection of profitable drugs to save lives.
The cheating, lying and fraud part hardly matters.
If Richard Virenque, admitted under oath doper, can wear a Yellow Wrist Band and gain sympathy, anything is possible.
The ends always justify the means with doping.
Lance Armstrong is NOT doping. I think that he'd have to have some Magic Beans if he were! Although by now, I suspect that Magic Beans can be tested for. He was VERY lucky to've been born with larger lungs and a larger heart than most other bike racers. And, yeah, he's gonna win THIS Tour de France, too. (I just hope he brings Sheryl this year.)Walrus said:Without any proof that he is doping, all we can say is that he is a phenomenon. All other opinions are just suspiscions.

Merckx may have used dope, amphetamines, to race on even when tired, but that does not improve performance except allowing an athlete to push beyond their limits. That's pretty tame stuff compared to the products available for performance enhancement these days.
The non-sense about Lance training harder than everyone else. Do you really believe Pro's at the very top level, the very best of the best, the one or two that make it out of each region of a nation, really cannot be bothered training hard? Do you think no one but Lance trains hard? Do you think you can train hard everyday, or longer or harder than everyone else? It's just not possible. Improvement comes when resting. You can only train so much, anyone can, anymore and you will make yourself ill.
Lance's reported VO2max results from way back are good, world class, but certainly not the best ever. I believe Brad McGee has an amazing 90+ VO2max, yet as a clean athlete (I do believe him) he is only just competitive. Saying Lance was beating others in Triathlons at 12 is all well and good, but Lance is physiologically gifted (great VO2max and an attitude in training to push himself and improve his LT) and at 12 (I think he was older though?) he would have beaten people in their 20s who were considered 'good' with the VO2max he had.
And to find some people that still think Marion Jones is clean. Wow. Do you really believe that? With the associations she has had with people from Balco, her husband's name is all over paperwork discovered at Balco? And her performance since her comeback is nowhere near her previous level.
I can't believe some of you are so naive
