No matter what they say about him he still has my support. And when will they stop accusing him without proof.

There's plenty of proof! All those people who lied in the past are now telling the truth, see, and we should believe them when the accuse Lance of doing things they themselves denied doing even though they did. Get it?

Huh? The last 6-8 weeks had their "wtf?" moments, each single one of them.

Witnesses saying his wife handed out drugs,

Tyler's book,

federal judge Sam Sparks "PR" slap,

USADAs charging letter

are just the biggest ones that come to mind.

For the zillionth time, the phrase is "I could NOT care less..."

By saying "could care less" you are implying that you do actually care at least a little bit. Geez, why can't anyone get it rigth?!

Because they could care less.

The fact is that there is an entire industry hoping they can get him to the line of as many tri's as possible. If he only does a fraction for triathalon that he did for cycling... Big money for many many players...Don't be surprised if u see him in Kona 13'.

Right on - he issued a statement a few days ago that he is not "banned from life". He will do Kona 13.

I think Lance looks great and I'm glad he was able to compete and win.

I would much prefer to see a guy with muscle in a speedo than an emaciated skinny guy in running shorts. Just sayin.

I have a spare fifteen minutes to get myself banned.

the forums at slowtwitch.com... this makes me so happy.

muscles and a gut, just like you have tri chica. im sure that you can have a michelob ultra to dance the night away.

That's not even a gut you bunch of dumb*****.. If you knew anything about the muscular system,you would know that is his entire abdominal wall with NO FAT at all around it. Dumb888 runners!!!

It's about time race organizers realized those pseudo organizations are only out to help themselves and siphon off as much money as they can for doing very little on the local level.

Your statement completely makes sense unless one really knows what the sport of triathlon is like re: organizations. I don't know of a worse sport in this respect - against the wishes of the athletes, and destroying the integrity of the sport, a guy named Les McDonald made the olympic version of the sport draft-legal on the bike (he had planned for all the swimmers to have to climb up on a raft and scramble over it during the swim for the sake of television cameras in the first olympic tri, but at least the athletes were able to stop that nonsense). Now, the olympic version is so boring my triathlete friends and I don't even watch it. Meanwhile, the national organizations are just terrible, and don't take positions that represent the interests of the athletes. Ironman Corporation put on their long-distance race this year in NYC, I volunteered, and they couldn't be bothered to provide ice at the aid station I was at after the initial amount they had quickly ran out - this on a very hot day, for athletes who'd paid more than $900 to compete (what a rip!)...

In fact, from what I can see, the little organizations that put on local races are the only ones who *don't* just siphon off money and actually care about the athletes. I understand it may piss you off that this particular race invited Lance to race, but , in general, these small race organizations are like angels compared to the big official bodies in the sport of triathlon!

Runner lie more about the size of their little toy.
