lance and the hospital room
who are the women in the hospital room and why did they say no comment? that
in and of itself is incriminating. I think people are delusional if they don't think he hasn't taken/takes performance enhancing drugs. how do you explain him being so above everybody else? |

It's called "being the best", and he's definitely that. Every sport eventually has someone that is heads and shoulders above everyone else - it doesn't last forever. Lance works harder than anyone else and is genetically gifted. Jeff |

Your argument is also based on the erroneous premise that everyone else is
clean. "J Jones" wrote in message .. . "Rdsleuths" wrote in message ... who are the women in the hospital room and why did they say no comment? that in and of itself is incriminating.

I think people are delusional if they don't think he hasn't taken/takes performance enhancing drugs. how do you explain him being so above everybody else? I, as a Lance fan, would say this - BEFORE he has his bout with cancer, do i think it is very likely that Lance took performance enhancing drugs. That was the era of the sport that everyone took drugs, hell a certain french team was caught with a freaking box of the stuff during one race!!! You had to level the field, thus you had to take stuff. So do I think that whole hospital room thing incriminates him? In some ways, yes, PRE CANCER. Post cancer is a different story. I think that at this point, Lance has won his races cleanly. I think that he passes all his drug tests, because he doesn't take anything to win. I mean, considering the scrutiny that Lance is under, if he is doping, unless he is Houdini, I don't see how he isn't caught. One of the tell tail statements he has made is when he was asked during the Discovery Channel press conference "Can you assure your fans that you have never taken performance enhancing drugs?". His answer was not "Yes." It was deflect question, then say "We do not use performance enhancing drugs." (present tense). That all being said, if we are going to get on this guy for being a past doper, where is all the criticism on Virenque to be kicked out now? Sure there is talk here on RBR about "Dick", but still, he doesn't get the scrutiny of Lance by the media, and he for sure used the stuff!

His answer was not "Yes." It was deflect question, then say "We do not use performance enhancing drugs." (present tense). The thing I've always wondered about is his spouses/girlfriends. Remember, there have been like 3 during this whole wild ride. I would imagine (if the needle marks are as obvious as the writers of that book would have you believe and that they have to be covered with makeup) that someone who was *with* him, would probably know he was taking something. Heck, just being around someone that much would probably tip you off. So why hasn't his ex-wife or Sheryl Crow said anything? Why would SC even be with him if he was doping? I'm assuming she's made of better stuff than that morally. The only thing I can guess is either they're all cheaters and they're all part of one big scam, or they're all dumb (they meaning his loved ones around him), or he's not doping. It just seems logical that given the stakes, given the house of cards that would crumble if he were cheating, that all these people wouldn't be around him if they didn't believe in him and that he was clean. Maybe that's naive, but it just doesn't make sense that he'd be cheating and either no one close to him would notice or they would be culpible. Preston |

Let me also ask this: Should Lance have to answer questions about events of 7-8 years ago? Especially from a past era of the sport where the governing body was willing to turn a blind eye to this kind of cheating?

wrote in message news According to two attorneys I work with on a nearly daily basis, the fact that they answered no comment is simply evidence of good lawyering. They noted that Armstrongs legal team most likely requested all who are involved (and friends of Armstrong so they would listen) to answer no comment. That's convenient, why go to all the trouble when a simple confirmation of Armstrong's doping denial would put the matter to rest? |

You are either naive or disingenuous to believe it would put the matter to rest, maybe for you but not Walsh, they and other journalist would seek the opportunity to not stop their and continue to ask unrelated questions. Attorneys will tell you that even if your innocent, responding openly to questions can put you more into hot water then extricate clarify. While your response may appear innocent to you often the unpracticed can offer answers that can easily be misconstrued by those with an agenda. No, no comment is usually the best response, saving the need to say keep the story from spinning out of control (more than it already has). And besides you can loose any shock value you hope to use to embarass folks with. |

Armstrong's heart is a third larger than most people's and his heart rate can
go from 30s to over 200. www.mimiforsyth.com |
