From 2002. The caption underneath the photo reads:
"Wrong place, wrong time...an unavoidable pairing with Greg LeMond
left Lance furious with the organizers - just a few months after
LeMond had again questioned the 'purity' of Lance's Tour
performances...Lance went home for the winter, even more determined to
win 5, 6, even 7 Tours now..!"

Interestingly, LANCE looks even more lean in the face now (he did a 15 sec
cameo on the Monday Night Football intro earlier this week) than he did
then.
so given about the caption for the picture in your post,

Hell, I don't know if Lance has ever doped, and I really don't care anymore.
But Greg Lemond ate some sour grapes in 1999 when another American won the
Tour.

Look at the veins on Lance's hands -- that's a strong indicator of
doping. And why isn't he wearing a tie? Is it in his "bagful of
courage"? Everyone knows that its hard to tie a full-windsor or even
a half-windsor when you're on a "program." I know hindsight is 20-20,
but we should have spotted this earlier.
He could have used a clip-on.

It's so obvious.

But dopers do not wear ties. Not even clip ons. Are these guys wearing
ties?

No.
Did you ever see this guy wear a tie?
http://www.starpulse.com/Athletes/Palmeiro,_Rafael/gallery/3/
No, you didn't.
How about Doctors? A Dr. who doesn't take drugs looks like this:

We really don't need an EPO test here.

I don't recall hearing any bitterness from Lemond until LANCE's
relationship with the orange juice vendor was outed. From what
I have heard from the people that have met him I have no doubt
he is a much bigger person than pinheads like you give him credit
for.

Bob,
Settle down, man. I don't care about Ferrari. But you can't tell me a
champion like Lemond - the first great American cyclist - liked hearing all
the buzz about Armstrong. Go back and read interviews from 1999 and 2000
and see his reaction to the press' questions about and comparisons of him to
Armstrong. I'd get annoyed by it, too. But Lemond had some sour grapes.
That doesn't mean he's an [censored].

I haven't worn a tie for such a long time I've forgotten how to tie a
tie knot.
I'm a doper baby, why don't you kill me.

"what is the caption for this picture:"
"I've more money than all three of you guys put together so I don't
need to impress anyone by wearing a tie. Besides I'm WAY cooler than
you guys EVER were.
And Eddy is STILL the champion of champions.
But you have to admit that Bernard still looks great even at his
advancing age......
And let's face it - Greg was a great racer who would have done a great
deal better if he'd not been out hunting. But he was and the accident
did occur. And there isn't any such thing as a virtual win. As much as
I like Greg he was out of line and spouting sour grapes about Lance.

That was my initial impression too. As time has passed, I've waffled back and
forth. Fundamentally, I don't have a problem with Lemond speaking his mind.
One of his major lines of argument has to do with the sudden increase in average
tour speed being an indication of widespread doping, etc. But others point out
that there is a correlation between total miles in a given Tour and average
speed. It's easy to agree with those that claim dopers are everywhere in pro
cycling - what activity that has significant value is not subject to cheating?
But when you see people going to such extremes to provide proof (such as Equipe)
then the dope cops look equally suspect.

Shut up--you well know he's younger than either of us.
