    Exactly, Armstrong has an ego the size of Jupiter and is about one of the cockiest SOB's to walk the planet. Finding someone to say something incriminating against him would not be all that difficult a task.

    This makes testing irrelevant. If he can pass every test and be stripped of his titles anyway, testing has no meaning.

    More importantly, (as tirk has said) it makes cycling that much more irrelevant.

    Cowherd said today that if they were to strip Lance of his '05 TDF title and give it to the next slowest guy that had NO links to doping allegations it would go to the dude that finished in 23rd place.

    Take from it what you will

    Does anyone believe that Lance is still innocent?

    Really? You mean you don't think he did anything wrong because everyone was doing it right? Or do you think he didn't take in performance enhancing drugs?

    I think he's guilty. But I do not care. Like someone else said, he cheated in a BICYCLE RACE but raised $1 Billion for Cancer . I'm willing to let it slide.

    One or two people saying it is possible. Not ten or more. Look everyone doped. I don't understand why they have gone after him like this but he definitely did it. Glad he could raise so much money and awareness for cancer when he still had a reputation.
