Sorry, no sympathy here.
She should've gotten into bodybuilding, or Pro wrestling. They both
have anti-drug programs too.
She was just as blatant with her doping as those women who have to
strap/tape their enlarged clits down so they can wear a posing suit.
Then there's the guys who are outrageously huge, have 3% bodyfat and
need a c-cup bra to hold their gynecomastia "*****-tits" in.
Tammy put herself into that category by being the most blatant doper
in US cycling then lieing her ass off about it.
She could've said "Hell Yeah, I'm doing it, so's everyoone else, the
systems screwed." and named names, told how she beat some of the
testing etc..., but nope she decided that we all must be stupid and
trotted out a bunch of BS.
The Balco investigation may well be an overpriced disaster as far as
the big fish go, so they may very well be moving on to the little ones
now.
Unfortunately the level of "justice" you get largely depends on the
money you have to spend, but in this case she's been nailed over and
over and kept right on going so I have NO sympathy at all.
" Whattaya gonna believe, the mounds of evidence, your lieing eyes, or
my word on it?"
