    Rumors of Armstrong and Steroids

    I saw on the news last night where France is accusing Lance Armstrong of using enhancing drugs that increase the red blood cell count in your blood. I read it last night and its retarded what they are saying. They said that they have random unmarked urine samples from 1999 and it is a possibility that one of them could be his. Lance said right before his last race that French officials arrived at his room to take two blood samples and two urine samples and they did this to no one else. I honestly don't think anything was used. It seems like some bullS***.

    They should just leave the man alone and stop the propaganda machine right now. I for one find Armstrong inspiring and they are tainting a legend. I believe he is innocent and he shouldnt have to prove it in the court of law which might cost him half a million and many years of his life. ski a great winter.

    This is all because an American keeps winning the Tour De France.

    He was accused of taking epo which raises your red blood count, more oxygen. Hes got one testicule isn't he on hormone (test) therapy because of that?

    I doubt that the finding were actually real. First of all, it was the B sample that was tested and the rules state that stored samples must remain anynomous. Also, there was no protocol that was followed at the FRENCH clinic that did the test. Anyone could have tampered with the samples (if they even were his) and since the A sample is now non-existant, not much can be done to clear Lance. People are just trying to make excuses and hurt the reputation of a living, breathing hero. The fact that the head of WADA is even working with these findings pisses me off.

    when losing one testicle the other is suposed to compensate for the loss so hormone levels wont drop. That is what my doc told me atleast since I only have one(the second one never dropped down so they removed it).

    Now he blame it on a countereffect of the Iraki war, seriously!

    He won so much times this title, that I do believe he's doping like everyone in this event.

    remember some years ago at the Spanish - french border they intercepted a car loaded with gear ending for the event.
