Ok, seriously, the French need to go & fuck themselves.

I just watched his interview on Larry King & they were talking about the tests, his performance, how the samples were kept...these allegations are such BS

Why, for trying to stop people from cheating?  Should they just ignore the medical evidence?

I don't know whether or not it's true, but I'm definitely not going to read a newspaper and believe them one way or the other.  I'm no medical expert, so I don't know how this works.

The French are just mad that they can't win at their own race, and that an AMERICAN takes the gold (or, yellow) each time.

Lance Armstrong had a bike ride with President Bush the other day, I thought that was cool. I don't think he did it, and neither does my grandpa - although I wouldn't really be that surpised. I'm sure he doesn't think so since Lance is like,  his idol and stuff.

But seriously, why would he have done it?  There is no reason.  He's made an INSANE come back from near-death to one of the most fit men on earth.  He won in 99 & has continued to get faster & faster each year (still passing drug tests).

They're just making stuff up about him...I'm sick of all these damn French people

The French have always done that to American riders. They did it with Greg LeMond and now Lance. It doesn't make sense to those stupid fuckers that anybody could be that astounding on a bike, especially somebody that isn't French. He's clean, he's a hero, and he's the man.

Seriously, what's the easiest way to make an INSANE come back? Drugs!

I don't think he would do drugs to win a race, other then death.

Or maybe he is an honest person & doesn't want to jeporadize his health that he has worked extremely hard to keep up.  Honest people do exist, at least where I'm from they do, maybe the snooty French figured "Hey, we're too lazy to get that strong honestly so we would've taken drugs, maybe he did too...let's test him & try to make him look bad"

Lance Armstrong is American, of course Adron isn't going to side with him.

Wow, are Americans getting so racist that they have to start spilling over to other countries?

Well, just pointing out that if someone made an INSANE come back, that isn't exactly a good argument trying to say there weren't any drugs involved. Because drugs do help people make INSANE come backs.

Maybe if the rest of the world wasn't so hypocritical and accusing America of ignorance while they and their accusations are themselves ignorant.

Screw Canada ;)

You're the one from the liberal country...I'm sure that people there would be more likely, in general, to do drugs to enhance their performance or otherwise.

Why can't a man work & pick himself up off of his death bed & then ride through 7 Tour de France victories?

Adron, just out of curiosity what do you have to say about how he never tested positive for a single drug test in his entire Tour de France career? Ever.

Post by: Forged on August 30, 2005, 11:54 AM
I don't think he is saying armstrong did drugs.  I believe he was reffering to craz3d's post asking why he would do drugs since he made an insane come back.  The easiest way is to in fact do drugs, however he never really accused armstrong of it.

I wouldn't be surprised if he did, nobody should be blessed with that sort of strength :(

Why not?...he worked for it.  Are you especially good at something?...what is it?  Imagine you made a living doing whatever you've become awesome at, imagine someone saying you cheated to get where you are (or could be since you're too young to be anywhere now)
