Lance threads are doping threads. Doping threads have their place.

Off to Pro.

You said that the closed case equals a vindication. And that Lance is clean. Why wouldn't I read in to it that they are related?

because here's what you said: "So in your mind nobody has ever gotten away with something? Interesting."

you didn't read into what I said anthing was related, you jumped to a completely unrelated, unsupported, and illogical conclusion.

Lance has been vindicated. He was not tried and found not guilty, He is innocent. As an attorney, I can tell you there's a difference. They have no case against him. You can go on and suspect, hate, and bad mouth him all you want. History can only show he was the best there ever was, and he was clean.

So he was successful in his attempts to cover up his drug use... Nothing new about that.

He is presumed innocent. Not the same thing as actually being innocent. As an attorney you should know that there is a difference.

And besides, this isn't a court. Legal rules don't apply. I wasn't bad mouthing Lance. I only questioned your line of thinking. Don't presume I'm a hater.

LMAO!

How about a prosecutor not finding enough evidence to take LA to trial? But please share your evidence since you don't think this is a vindication of LA.

Haaa, haaaa, haaa, all you Lance haters can suck it! If he was found guilty or if they would have proceeded with the investigation you are the same ones who would be saying, "I told you so". Because you didn't get the outcome you wanted, you resort to making lame excuses about the proceedings.

Don't know what I'm happier about, Lance's exoneration or Contador's ban. Let's call it a tie. That beef story smelled of BS and I'm glad that little pixie cheat is banned for two years!

Haaaaaa, haaaaaa, haaaaaa!!!!
