Lance Explains That He Trained Hard and Doping Was Necessary

We are all such hypocrites, popping our Advil, foam rolling, getting dry-needled, getting therapy and chugging Gatorade - things we all do that enhance performance.

That's fine, but to clarify, our you ok with all dopers then?

I've never done any of those things

Peds can make a champion out of a mediocre performer if they respond well and the peds are effective

It's more easily identifiable in cycling but the same thing applies to track

Rashid Ramzi is a good example

"The human body cannot do that course clean at a high level."

OK, so do it clean at a low level, or make it a test of clean survival. It can be done, but only by few.

Oh, also...

I WOULD FVCK THAT BlTCH LANCE IN THE A5S UNTIL HE LOVED ME, THEN I WOULD FVCK HIM SOME MORE.

THROW THE CRIMINAL FRAUD IN PRISON, I'M SURE HE'LL GET SOME GOOD LOVIN'

I'm ok with all dopers. Price of competing at the highest levels. Let 'em take the risk with full knowledge of the costs and benefits. Makes for some exciting racing.

The TDF has not been the same since the Lance years. That was some exciting racing.

How about you trying to think a little more critically yourself before posting more pro-Lance drivel.

Does everyone respond to PEDs the same?

Does everyone respond to training the same?

That's great! We'll send you their medical bills because their basic body functions fail as they age.

And what about your kids? You have to get them started doping early, just like Armstrong. Teach them how to run some EPO and T. Good times!!

You are still okay with it, right?

Maybe -- but what does that have to do with my post explaining why I think Lance the doper should be judged differently than other dopers -- for reasons outside of PEDs and performance?

How about sleeping? Ever do that to enhance your performance?

Yes, but I cheat and sleep for 20 hours per day.

Those things are not the same as doping. Do not let others convince you it is just the same as altitude training or other legal advantages.

Doping causes large changes in someone's physiology, past what they could achieve with training alone under any circumstances. And it is scientifically measurable, not a myth.
