Insurance, what a scam! Hehe... I wonder who the actuary was for
SCA, who set the premium at only $420,000 I'm sure that Tailwind
could have procured similar "Insurance" from English bookmakers,
although I doubt that the odds against Armstrong success would have
been set so high (i.e. Tailwind would have had to pay a higher
"premium") One wonders if Tailwind is insured through the 2005 TdF.
Given the way that the payouts have escalated, it could be quite
interesting. Since Lance now has to pay alimony, and keep Cheryl Crow
in the manner to which she is accustomed, he may still be strongly
motivated by the prospect of winning millions more.


Hey, Lafferty, what's the difference between this and gambling, anyway?
