Pretty crazy news.
Link here.
What do you guys think? Personally I find the allegations very hard to believe.
“The toll this has taken on my family and my work for our foundation and on me leads me to where I am today - finished with this nonsense”
Wow! That’s big news.
So even though there has been no admission of guilt, will the anti doping agencies treat it as such?
Makes me wonder if he genuinely can’t be bothered fighting any more, of if he’s afraid to take it any further.
It’s just like he said - a witch hunt.
I’m disgusted in the behaviour of the USADA!
Travis Tygart has deceitfully manipulated a monumentally unfair process to deliberately destroy someone’s life.
Travis Tygart deserves to have HIS own life destroyed - and I REALLY hope that happens!!!
Wow!
Where does it say that he has been stripped?
Where does it say that he has been stripped?
I think the link above is his statement in response to this http://www.usatoday.com/sports/cycling/story/2012-08-23/Armstrong-doping-charges/57258616/1
news.com.au say he maybe stripped.. i dont think its finalized yet or news as per normal are all over the place.
Yeah i don’t think the “sentence” (for lack of better word, had been handed down).
The above state from Lance is just saying he wont fight it.
Many news websites are reporting the same thing.
“THE US Anti-Doping Agency will ban Lance Armstrong from cycling for life and strip him of his seven Tour de France titles for doping.”
yeah - WILL being the key word. It hasn’t happened YET
WOW that’s massive news!
Poor dude.. :/
intense!!!
Lance is Texan. Texan’s don’t take this kind of bullshit lightly when it’s about one of their own. Travis Tygart better watch his back.
If it is true, it will be a great shame.. He became a legend not only due to his outstanding results but because of his stance against this sort of thing, which put our trust back into professional sport. If it turns out he was a cheat it will undermine all professional sport to a certain degree. I hope its a false claim..
It’s just plain sad. He’s made 500 million for his cancer charity I think he deserves more respect and it’s always the way for the top athletes. Some prick just wants to knock them off the top.
