I dont need an argument.
You might consider actually learning about the sport before you use the 'liar, liar pants on fire chanting'
True you have no aurgument--we already knew that.
You made reference to Lance's innocence. Does this mean you believe trauma & anemia doping is a crime?
If so, then many of Lance's competitors are criminals.
Lance's victories over Zulle, Rumsas, Pantaini are meaningless---due to their extreme illnesses requiring their heavy medications. What's the big deal out of defeating sick people in a bike race?
Lance is just following a standard practice of his peer group. Perhaps he dopes with superior stuff or in heavier dosages for the month of July. Perhaps it's Lance's fatalistic and competitive mentality which allows him to dope with greater abandon, than do his TDF competitors. Maybe that's his real secret?
David Millar, Oscar Camenzind, Alex Zulle, Filippo Simeoni, Philippe Gaumont, Cdric Vasseur, Greg Strock, Erich Kaiter, Jose Maria Jeminez, Marco Pantani, Tony Rominger, Eddie Merckx et al.....
These are Lance's role models.
If you do not believe that Lance uses research products, or commonly known hormones, or even TUE drugs, then why bother rooting for the guy? Everybody else in the his group appears to be on drugs. Is that fair?
Your entire peloton is doped.
If you follow pro cycling for very long---or if you race with retired professionals or if you have friends go off to race professionally and later on explain to you the frank and brutal truth of doping---you will understand. It is a very simple concept.
A PhD will only help you become employed by a drug researcher---but a veterinarian license will help get you the Oxyglobin Solution (HBOC) today.
btw: In the still developing Belgian 'Pot Belge' doping arrests and investigation involving Laurent Biondi, formerly of Credit AG2R----another name was identified:
That of Freddy Sergeant & his wife Monique. This is fascinating because he worked for ADR in the late 1980s----at the same time Greg Lemond was their top rider. Hmmmmm.
Lance Armstrong has his convicted doper doctor Michele Ferrari, but maybe Greg will have his too?
These guys have a lot in common---success and lots of secrets involving illegal, but necessary doping.
Pro Cycling and life sciences are but one activity.
