The Armstrong Lie

[Pro Tour Punditry]

Actually, I can't believe there's someone trying to defend Armstrong. It's 2014, the evidence is out there. Done and dusted.

Why did betsy, Walsh and kimmage not focus attention on anyone bar Armstrong in their selfless quest to free cycling from drug abuse? Because no one cared about any other cyclist at that time in the English speaking world .

Are you serious?
Like seriously serious?
And not on the wind-up?

Im not defending him. I'm just questioning their reasons for going after him specifically.massive difference. So many others they could have outed without as big a ring fence around them of secrecy if they wanted to clean up cycling. Seems strange to me they picked the biggest fight first.

No it doesn't. They kept hitting brick walls, why not take a step back and take it down brick by brick? But no one in us or uk would have cared if they outed anyone bar Armstrong then would they?

You really don't understand Armstrong's role, nor the mindset of investigative journalists, if that's what you think. I don't agree with Kimmage in all his methods, but Walsh and Betsy Andreu are above reproach in my opinion. Andreu did not ask to be involved but she was strong enough to decide she had to.

did he?

No.

She was asked, she could have no to Walsh. She didn't,

And for that we need to be thankful.

Because at 1130 at night I mixed up two names? Get over yourself. Get a grip that I'm not defending lance. Then you might get it.
