    He's retired now. You should consider retiring too.

    I guess your point is that this puts him in the same class as those E.
    German gold medalists who were later show to have used dope when the
    Stazi(sp?) files were finally obtained. Lets see if Mr. Armstrong sues
    L'Equipe for defamation now that they've outright called him a liar.

    I don't think D. Ferguson's comment is appropriate. You did not continue to
    post anti-LA comments to any great degree until now, at least. I think we
    need both pro and ant- commentary, but I'd hope both would be balanced and
    fair.

    Did those East Germans get stripped of their medals post exposure?

    Would you agree that LA not be stripped if the testing is equivocal, or if
    he's unable to mount a defense, or if there's insufficient forensics?

    Others might say 'were previous Tour winners stripped post retirement?'

    If they do try to strip him based on this, it would be sad. What is your
    position?

    Was this when the womens' swim coaches went to China?
    I remember there was a civil case brought against the coaches in more
    recent years, claiming the steroids had lead to sterility, cancer, liver
    failure, etc.

    Yes and yes.

    the truth is out, it's out and that's what matters. Of course there could
    be a sporting fraud action against him and a few others. Keeps your eyes on
    the Texas insurance case.

    I thought 'sporting fraud' as a crime was only applicable in Italy ?
