  1. Interesting that no one (in RBR) is surprised at Rasmussen's news. Choose
    one:

    a. everyone knew he was lying
    b. everyone's sick of doping [censored]
    c. everyone is dumbstruck
    d. everyone's a dumbf*ck
    e. both a & b above

    You mean, that he hung on to be re-elected PM of Denmark? Yeah, I
    guess that was kinda surprising, since no one has led his party to
    three consecutive parliamentary victories in a while.

    If they had random dope tests for politicians there'd be a lot of
    positives.

    How about f?

    Absolutely nothing new or earth-shaking revealed. The only thing noteworthy
    would have been if Rasmussen had, in fact, played by the rules and the team
    screwed up. But that's not the case. It just looks as if Rasmussen was
    stupid and wasted a lot of people's time... that time wasted only because
    people couldn't believe he'd be so dumb, so they might have been inclined to
    try and believe him. But in the end, he supplied all the rope need to hang
    himself. Just as had appeared to be the case from the beginning.

    The team did screw up. They said: you can't do that and if you do it
    anyway it's your own responsibility and we want nothing to do with it.
    It's a meaningless disclaimer because afterwards they still put him on
    the team. Rasmussen's court case against the team looks valid in that
    regard.

    Yeah, E for me. I was surprised that the Rabo team knew some of this
    before the start of the race.

    Where Lafferty failed to convince, facts have done so.
    Seems he needs no press, since the topic is the only one left here, except
    cross and politics.

    If they had random doping tests for most of the posters here they'd
    have aced the test.

    I think he is lying about lying.
    He really was in Mexico, but had
    to cut a deal and read a prepared statement.

    Lafferty failed to convince that LA doped (his main focus). Which facts
    have done so?

    dumbass,

    that's because they didn't care. it only became an issue after his
    whereabouts in june became in issue during the tour.

    dumbass,

    or he was just doing what any good doper would do - exploiting
    weaknesses in the system to avoid detection.

    dumbass,

    it's not interesting to rbr because he hasn't tested positive or
    admitted to doping. so he can play the plausible deniability card.

    If he had a fixation on Armstrong, he also spent enough time trying to take
    off the communal blinders to the pervasiveness of the drug culture. There
    are some people who may have been more cunning avoiding being caught. Maybe
    like your hero.

  19. well he *is* trying to put a new spin on the thing, claiming "marital"
    reasons for lying re his whereabouts. Let's see- his wife is mexican, and he
    tells here he's over to see her folks while he's really in Europe... smart
    huh.
