| Lance Armstrong - Stripped Of His 6th TdF Title? |
| 2004-08-05 |
| CNN is reporting that Lance Armstrong may be stripped of his 6th Tour de France title. In a random check for banned substances, three were found in Armstrong's hotel room. The three substances banned under French rules that were found in his hotel room were as follows: (1) Toothpaste (2) Deodorant (3) Soap French officials also found several other items which they had never seen before and were not immediately able to identify, including testicles and a backbone. |

| #11 It would be typical of the French. The great Belgian biker Mercyx (sp?) lost out on doing what Lance accomplished (outdoing it, really, since the Belgian did a full race schedule) because some cowardly French punk punched him in the liver. |

| #10 Late thread but I thought that you all might like to know what the scuttle butt is with many cat racers. 67 to 70% are doping. No facts, no evidence, no nothing, just speculation. |

| #4 Speaking of the Olympics. I've got a (slightly) funny story that shows what Europeans unquestioningly believe about our Olympic athletes. Some guy was complaining to me that the poor governments of the world had been forced to fully subsidize their athletes in order to keep up with the big bad rich US because we had been the first to do so just so that our athletes would have an unfair advantage. When I told him that our athletes are not subsidized by the government but have to rely instead on private sponsors and their own funds you could have cut the shocked silence that followed with a knife! His jaw literally dropped heh heh heh heh. You know I wouldn't be surprised if many Europeans are convinced that the super rich US has developed some completely undetectable super-drug just so that athletes like Lance can humiliate the continentals. I can just hear them muttering in their fevered dreams "Must.prove.it....must.expose.zee.Americans.." |

| #3 All the more reason that Lance should return for a seventh consecutive win and make France STFU for-fricking-ever, or at least until they produce an athlete of the same caliber (some centuries from now). |

| #1 DOH! You totally had me going there for a second. However the idea that the Fwenches would try to frame him isn't so far fetched at all. I'm actually suprised that they didn't go for it. But I guess they'll try that next time since trying to openly sabotage him this time was such a bust :) Let me say it again. Way to go Lance! |
