How much will Rqasmussen Sue For

It seems that Rasmussen denies he was in Italy and isn't going to take
the recent situation Cassani provoked lying down

Dumbass -

He'd have to be able to prove that he was in Mexico. Credit card
charges on airline tickets, credit card charges in Mexico itself -
real evidence.

If he wasn't in Mexico, that evidence won't exist and he won't have a
case. If he *was* in Mexico, then he'll be getting plenty.

I'll speculate that he wasn't in Mexico.

thanks,

K. Gringioni.

I sort of agree there

But it would be one Heck of a Gas if he was right

He has not once since his departure suggested his team are in error
and that he was as suspected in Mexico all along.

So, stop dreaming because he was NOT in Mexico.

My guess is Annunziata Hotel on the Piazza Repubblica 5.
That's just off the Via Garibaldi in Ferrara Italy.

"It's the work of a desperate man who is at the end of his nerves,"
Rasmussen told the paper's website. "My boss is mad. I wasn't in
Italy, no way. That's the story of one man (former cyclist and now an
Italian television presenter Davide Cassani) who thinks he saw me. But
there's not the slightest proof." -- Rasmussen Today

He'll most probably be suing for damages

And Davey hopes he gets plenty

Interesting... who will he sue? On what grounds? And in which
jurisdiction?

I expect we'll hear some periodic harrumphing, diminishing in
frequency, with Rasmussen promising that he'll eventually get it all
off his chest, because he has much to say... when Denmark is ready to
hear (or someone is interested enough to pay good money).

If I were falsely accused of being in a certain country at a certain
time, I would be showing my passport to anyone willing to look at it.
I don't think that's going to happen in this case.

He missed 4 random doping tests. He failed to notify teams of his
whereabouts. He has no grounds. He violated the UCI rules and probably
should not have started the tour. There seems to be very little support
for him amongst other riders. If the other riders have to submit for the
tests, why should he not have to?

The only suit I can seem him winning is suing the team for letting him
start the tour and getting his hopes up.

No matter. President Bush just pardoned him and ordered him not to
testify anywhere under executive privilege.

I travel quite frequently

I also don't have a single stamp in my passport although they are
sometimes scanned electronically

That still doesn't answer the question of why he missed 4 out of
competition tests. And as Lance said - EVERYONE has cell phones,
internet connections or Blackberries these day. Why is it Rassmussen
couldn't be reached?

You obviously have not been to mexico.

And did you not think that a scan would be recorded?

or post 9-11 Everyone flying anywhere is recorded?

LANCE would be better served by shutting up given the amount of time he
spent in the company of Ferrari himself.

He's an EU citizen, so he probably wouldn't get a
passport stamp on going to Italy (Could an EU
citizen confirm?) Last time I went to Mexico,
we drove over the border and they didn't look at
our passports, but that was a long time ago at
a very small border crossing in the middle of
nowhere. (It was at midnight and the border guard
just stuck his head into the car and asked
"Pistolas?" while making a gun shape with his thumb
and index finger. It was pretty funny. And
although this story makes it sound like we were
driving a camper van made out of pot, we weren't,
honest.) I would expect things to be a little
more rigorous at an international airport.

Anyway, if he was in Mexico, it shouldn't be hard
to prove - credit cards, phone records, and so on.
Like you, I doubt it will happen.

/If/ he's telling the truth - and it shouldn't be very hard to prove - I
would think the sky was the limit.

True.

Quoted message said:

He failed to notify teams of his
whereabouts.

He apparently told his team that he was (at a specific place) in Mexico.
His team now believes he wasn't - but this can easily be proved, and if he
was there, then he told his team the truth.

Quoted message said:

He has no grounds. He violated the UCI rules and probably

No, he didn't. He violated a procedure. If he had missed three UCI tests,
he would have broken the rule - but he didn't.

Quoted message said:

There seems to be very little support
for him amongst other riders.

True, but he is at best a fairly abrasive personality, not someone easy to
like. You wouldn't expect him to be popular in the peloton.

Quoted message said:

If the other riders have to submit for the
tests, why should he not have to?

The only suit I can seem him winning is suing the team for letting him
start the tour and getting his hopes up.

Certainly the only people he can sue are the team and the sponsor. But if
he was telling the truth then I wouldn't want to be that sponsor - the
damage both in financial terms and in bad publicity is going to be
enormous.
