What do you think about the latest charges against Lance?
I'm not an expert, and I don't have a strong opinion either way, but this much is obvious: Somebody REALLY wants to get him. He has passed over 500 drug tests, and never failed a single one, but they keep coming after him.
Someone (or a group of someones) has it out for him.

I agree. Leave the poor man alone!
Makes you wonder what kind of people are on this US anti-doping ageency? They're trying to prove he took drugs, even after he passed every test 7 years after he won his last Tour. They've had 7 years to prove it and they haven't done it.

I like this comment to the Washington Post: "Just to recap, an organization that makes its own rules is using testimony from proven liars and cheats, tests that do not comply with the applicable guidelines of the sport in question, and allegations of conspiracy that were rejected by the feds after a far more thorough and professional investigation. Someone needs to lose their job over this"
After all these years, over 500 tests; sanctimonious, jealous, bitter investigation by the French and European press; and our own Obama-inspired government, geez!! This is the type bullying that is typical of idiot full-of-themselves government losers trying to justify their existence and jealousy-eaten racer losers who couldn't beat him on a bicycle or in contemporaneously administered tests during each competition.
I no longer care if he did it or not. At some point enough is enough. I wanna see him beat these twits one more time.Who's next? Exhume Babe Ruth? Take away Michael Jordan and Gayle Sayers records? Rescind Bradshaw's Super Bowl titles? WE ALL KNOW WHO WON!!!

Lance Armstrong is a hero of mine, and probably of countless others. Leave him alone. He is retired from cycling. But, this stupid indictment will prevent him from participating in triathalons now. He has been the most tested athlete in history. If (big IF) he did something as alledged in 1999, clearly he was NOT doing it thru all the years he won the Tour, 1999-2005. Which means he won the frickin' Tour multiple times while clean. And! beat some great riders who we have since learned were NOT clean themselves. Such as Jan Ullrich who was later found to be a big doper! They caught Ullrich, and the others, by using the same testing methods that showed Armstrong to be clean. Hello! Obviously, the methods work, and equally obviously, Lance was NOT doping!
And, if these drugs, blood doping, etc... methods enhance the performance of athletes, as they say they do, then that means that a clean Armstrong beat a bunch of performance-enhanced pro cyclists. I guess if they hadn't doped, Lance would have crushed them, not just beat them!
Leave Lance alone.
Eventually, you tell them to **** off!
I'm an asshole! What's your excuse?
In addition, he battled back from cancer. Maybe he praised Jesus Christ in a public setting. Just "hating" on Americans again.
Unless he's had a recent conversion experience, Lance is a professed agnostic.
But was he when he was having sex?
It's time to close the doors to the Temple of Janus.
They hate Michelob...
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
Hope Solo test postive for a banned substance. Given a warning because it was an "obvious mistake."
Lance Armstrong test negative, getting the book thrown at him.
Lance has alot more smoke around him for alot longer time...
Solo - not so much -
Right now, I place Lance in the same camp as Roger the Dodger...
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
Looks like they are tightening the noose a little. Team doctors and trainers have been given a lifetime ban.

This guy is trying to convict a man that can ride a bicycle to the top of a mountain and then go down it in several hairpin curves at 70 mph because he says he's on drugs. If he wants to catch some drug users all he needs to do is go to Walmart on Sat. night. They're real easy to spot and they can kill you on the highway. They can't drive a car safely, much less a bicycle.
If you're following (watching on NBCsports) the Tour, you know that several: Hincapi, Leipheimer, and some others have "turned state evidence" against Armstrong in exchange for immunity. Lance has filed a lawsuit against the USADA. That was his response to their "respond in 72 hours or you're guilty and banned for life." His response is what you'd expect from a fighter.
I am no longer Hincapi, Leipheimer et al fans. None of them are doing a flip in this year's Tour. I hope Hincapi crashes out and fails to finish the Tour, denying him the record of 17 Tours finished.
There is no honor left in this world. Everyone is just out for themselves, and to hell with anyone else. Please tell me, what kind of pro cycling career would Georgie Porgie Hincapi had had without Lance? He'd been done years ago, a nobody that no one would have remembered. There is no loyalty left.
Just stab your friends in the back, eh! Yeah, that's the ticket!
