Armstrong to be Stripped of all 7 Titles

Hes dead to me, the lying scum suckin bastard. My kid was in competition biking and always was one jot short of sponsorship. He once said to me that many of these guys were "juicing" I didnt believe it.

@farmerman,

I haven't kept up, since he confessed, are they going to let him compete?

I'd like to see that happen, and see how well he does with no enhancement.

Then again, he'd probably use the excuse of getting older, lack of opportunity to really train, stress, etc.

It's not fm. You can't fake winning the Tour de France.

Cheating is embedded so deeply in top dollar sport that there is no possibility of getting rid of it. The doping agencies are cheating.

Choosing that fatty Oprah for his "confession" says it all.

She knows nothing about sport. She just grabbed the opportunity to be in the limelight parasiting on his legs.

There's nothing like cheap indignation to size a bloke up.

He is too long in the tooth to compete on the tour however he wish to compete on iron man events.

In any way as the majority of the tours seems to had been cheating at the time he was competing on a fairly level field.

@farmerman,

sorry, Its my ADD.
Hes just smart enough to have s;ipped by the criminal Statute of Limitations but I hope the civil suits clean him out.

Hes gone from a heroic figure whose perservered and won against great odds and sickness--to a dirt bag antisocial creep whose brought a sport down

(Course nobody was awareded the top medals from the runners up and third placesr , since all these guys were juicing too)

Bikes are for messengers

You don't know how the system works fm. It's corrupt from top to bottom. Which is not only as it should be but inevitable.

You are just running your virtue number past folks who don't know how the system works.

You are up for getting to the bottom of the Big Bang to funnel taxpayer's dough to your mates and you can't get a handle on the Media/Entertainment/Money/ Nationalism/Sport nexus. And to do that all you need are your eyes.

He also was the engine/driving force that ended up raising half a billion dollars for cancer researchs and treatments.

Somehow I do not think all of us together had done as must for the welfare of mankind as this cheater on a bike had done.

Do my yikkle down-fumbers fink these top guys play like they play snap?

Aaaaaaah!

They are the most ruthless, determined assholes that you could ever expect to come across.

Gentleman sport went out a long time ago. Nobody would watch it nowadays.

They are like bankers except they make their muscles scream both in training and in the events.

Don't forget the training. It goes on every day, all year long, and it is such as to make a compassionate man weep.

I bet Oprah can hardly waddle at 3 mph and what did she ever do except exploit human failings for cash?

Cricket looks a soft, leisurely game to the unobservant eye. The top players take ice baths for half an hour after a day's play so they can walk the day after.

Armstrong says he wants to be reinstated. So the criminal wants a to have say in his own sentencing.

Maybe he should ask the competitors he cheated, who were competing clean and losing, while he got the plaudits, the publicity, the prizemoney, the fame, the adulation and the sponsorship deals.

who ran clean? did anyone run clean? there will now be no declared winner for multiple years because tour organizers can not figure out who to give the medals to.

All of his competitors had also been caught cheating during those seven Tours de France save Joseba Beloki who most likely also cheated, but was never caught. He was implicated in the Operación Puerto doping scandal, but was cleared by the Spanish courts.

In regard to the Olympic Cycling Road Race, doping isn't as effective in road racing, which are single stage events, as it is in stage racing, because tactics and a certain amount of luck tend to account for a great deal of the wins. The strongest don't always win those races; the most wily do. In regard to the other cycling disciplines in the Olympics, those games are the second most thoroughly tested sports in the world after professional cycling, and cheaters are constantly being caught and dealt with. The suggestion of removing the entire sport of cycling from the Olympics, especially when it doesn't even include a stage race, is a knee jerk response to the Armstrong scandal.

not so much kneejerk - Mr. Pound has been watching cycling for many years

(he seems particularly pissed off right now ... but he's spoken about it many times)

@InfraBlue,

They cheat in every big event one way or another. There's plenty of cheating on here as well. Like referring to Quantum mechanics to give a false impression that one is clued up on atomic particle dynamics.

Or wearing high heeled shoes to hide sagging buttock cellulite concentrations. And disguising wrinkles is a bad as giving a false age on an official form. Nay!! Worse. Hair dye is Cheating City.

They say that the more a person talks of their honesty the faster you should count the silver spoons. I will admit though that talking about honesty to people who are not familiar with the psychology of that nostrum can be quite impressive. It does, however, assume an uneducated audience.
