CNN reporting Lance Armstrong may be stripped of his title.
Edited on Tue Aug-03-04 05:26 PM by RobertSeattle
In a random check for banned substances three were found in Armstrong's Paris hotel room.

The substances banned by the French that were found in his room were as follows:

1) Toothpaste
2) Deodorant
3) Soap


(Sorry about the French bashing, but this was funny! - And I've suffered one too many cab rides in Paris with a stinking cab driver)

3. What's Lance's politics?
Does he keep it quiet? I've thought if Kerry could get an endorsement from either Lance Armstrong or Dale Earnhardt Jr the election would be instantly o-v-e-r.

5. He was a very visible 'friend of Bush' in 2000.
:puke:
Don't know what Sheryl Crow sees in him, or why the hero worship considering he dumped his wife like a bad habit after she
supposedly was the one who 'helped him thru his cancer/rehab/gave him the will to live' ... :eyes:

10. Hmmmm.....
I don't suppose you have a problem with the fact that, due to his cancer (testicular, lung and brain cancer, by the way, at age 25) he had to fight against a bunch of PERFORMANCE-DEBILITATING DRUGS (chemo)
Ah, but that's okay.
If he used some performance enhancers to build himself back up after his battle with cancer...so long as he did NOT use them to gain an edge IN COMPETITION...then what the hell??
But you have no problem with the perfomance-debilitating drugs that were pumped into him constantly during his battle with cancer.

Performance-DEBILITATING, okay...performance-ENHANCING, nope.

Interesting.

8. He's supposed to be a Dem.
Maybe in the Toby Keith wing, mind.

9. I thought he was all for Kerry
I never knew what he was in 2000, but I thought I heard recently that he was backing the good guys this time.
