    Actually, given the mountain of proof for doping across the entire field of elite road cyclists, it is 'common sense' to be skeptical of Armstrong's claims.

    Skeptical, yes. Of Armstrong's claims and those who "know" he was dirty.

    Speculation the case was dropped thanks to Armstrong's connections.

    Lance Armstrong is a clean as Albert Pujols.

    Oh, AQB, Pujols is no longer a Cardinal. You can cut him some slack. Shift to Berkman or Holliday

    American former Tour de France winner under Federal investigation for fraud stemming from PED use.

    Unfortunately, it's not that one.

    I've said this from the start: rather than pat Floyd on the back from trying to rat out whatever Lance may or may not (likely did) have done, the Feds needed to go after him from straight out defrauding people of money for his "Floyd Defense Fund."

    Dopers are cheating to win at sports. Landis was no different than Madoff.

    I didn't, nor would I have even if I didn't figure he was guilty, under any circumstances donated ... but I'll take back the $22 or whatever I spent on his book!
