new allegations about Lance Armstrong

[Mr Epee]

One of the most closed minded, ill-informed statements I've ever seen typed!!!!

Here's a fun article from ESPN. It's not specifically about Armstrong, but three of the top riders have been booted from the TdF this year.

That's pretty serious stuff.

Wow, that's interesting!!

Personally I don't think that Lance took drugs, considering what he had been through with cancer and how close he came to dying. I can't see someone being through that and wanting to take PEDs. However, if he had won the tour before his cancer I could understand someone wating to remain at the top level.

but if he did take drugs, does that make him any different than any other athlete? I think performance enhancing drugs are more likely the norm rather than the exception.

I'd have to agree with Jon Stewart of the Daily Show on this one.

Given everything Lance has been through, he could ride with a jet attached to his ass and I'd still respect him for winning.

I think blatant doping on Lance's part.

Not too blatant, I would think, else there would be more proof.
