Since the morons here couldn't possibly be you two guys, please show me, with examples, how epo or blood doping have produced an improvement in performance equal to going from 3:58 to 3:46 in the mile. Thanks in advance

You appear to be too stupid to get beyond boring with your trolling. Please try to dial it up a bit. Otherwise just STFU.

Aka "I've got nothing"

That's what I thought.

I don't disagree that epo was necessary to compete in the 90's. That isn't the argument.

I'm also not naive enough to believe that cycling wasn't dirty(still is to some extent) all the way across the board during that time. It was necessary for anyone to finish a grand tour with the peleton to be doped during those times. Just the way it goes. Lance certainly didn't have "better epo" than ullrich. He had a will to win, and killer instinct as you have mentioned that we have seen from very few athletes in any sport.

Feel free to say he's an a hole. He is. However to say he wouldnt have won a clean tour(everyone clean) is bias and incorrect. Then again, we can say that about every tour winner ever and we'll never know the truth so we might as well quit arguing about it.

Boring.

Seriously, what kind of troll are you anyway? I mean besides the obvious, a rather dull one.

You're pathetic. Don't enter a debate if you can't even refute one simple point.

Thank you. I needed a good laugh today.

What financial vehicles cannot they touch? Is that his cars or the bikes he rided in the Tour de France. This sounds like Kiprop. Maybe they should join forces and make money again. It would be good to see them both racing again.

He's had a good life for a high school drop out with no more than a 9th grade education. I don't think a GED counts for anything since a 5th grader could pass that.

Typical exemptions are the home and other necessary items to live. And pensions. Not sure what he has besides a home. But there’s ways to hide assets such as giving them to someone else or setting up specific trusts that give away all your assets.

A quick story. After the financial crisis I knew a lot of real estate investors who lost everything and declared bankruptcy. They all had Ferrari’s and moved their Ferrari to an apartment so that they can keep it through bankruptcy (bankruptcy let’s you keep your car, but not a Ferrari since that’s not necessary to survive). Yes, they are as shallow as they sound. They literally gave up everything to keep their Ferrari.

That's probably THE thing I look for when I suspect someone of doping. Do they go from just being a national level athlete then suddenly jump up to world class? The second is if they are putting up crazy performances well past their prime.

Lance was world class as a teenager. Won a world championship before cancer. Get your facts straight!

He was a good one day racer before the peds. He wasn’t a good stage racer at all. He couldn’t recover.

Anyway, can anyone tell me how many kids Lance has with different mothers now?

The guys a narcissus sociopath, and they do generally fail in life sooner or later, because they can’t fit in with societal expectations as to behaviour.

Fully agree. Lance went on Oprah, confessed many of his sins, admitted being an a-hole, said he’d learned his lessons...then went right back to lying and being an a-hole. He just can’t help himself.

My dream would be to be driving a Ferrari Testarossa with Bekele next to me, driving into the sunset in the Atlas Mountains. That would be my biggest wish.
