Post; Lance Armstrong and doping


Does anyone believe the man used performance enhancing drugs at anytime during his 7 years of winning the Tour de France?

It seems a French newspaper has proof that he has done so.

Tell you the truth I wouldnt be a bit surprised if he was guilty and they had proof. 7 years in a row is a lot in todays competition. There only talking about doping from 1999 though which is a bit random

In this age with all the problems with MLB, everyone is goin to be accused of takin some form of somethin. Is there no chance that lance is just that good of an athlete or in that good of shape? There are some people that just can do things that cant be explained, so instantly, "he must be on drugs" or " he must be cheatin".

Mud sticks and if you tell the same story often enough then people might start to believe it. Now i think this is just sour grapes by people and teams that had hoped to win but were beaten by an exceptional man.

They have been griping about this for years with absolutely no proof. Two things: this man has enormous lung capacity which is why he has won so many times, and his determination, he beat cancer.
It's all sour grapes as leEnfield said.
