  1. Tailwind announced yesterday that Schilling would be going
    to court in London today, seeking injunctive relief. Does
    anyone know if they went to court and if so, what the
    result was?

  2. No results yet, here is the court brief from LA

    LEGAL NOTICE RE: LANCE ARMSTRONG - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    Lance Armstrong has reacted with concern and dismay at the
    false allegations made by David Walsh, Chief Sports Writer
    of the Sunday Times. The allegations appear in a forthcoming
    book entitled 'LA Confidential', co-written with Pierre
    Ballester and to be published in France. Extracts from the
    book have appeared in L'Express and some of the book's
    allegations were repeated in yesterday's Sunday Times.

    Lance Armstrong utterly denies ever having taken any
    performance enhancing drugs.

    Accordingly, Lance Armstrong has instructed his lawyers to
    immediately institute libel proceedings

    1) In the High Court in London against the Sunday Times and
    David Walsh seeking an injunction and substantial damages

    2) In Paris, against David Walsh, Pierre Ballester, the
    publishers of 'LA Confidential' and the publishers of
    L'Express.

    Proceedings will be filed in the High Court tomorrow.

    Issued by Schillings, Royalty House, 72-74 Dean Street,
    London, W1D 3TL Ref: KS/GB/JR/A113/1 Tel. 020 7453 2500 Fax:
    020 7453 2600

    Of course, this is damage control to head off the stress of
    the Tour press conferences. Regardless of whether the libel
    suit is successful or unsuccessful Lance can deflect any
    questions regarding doping or allegations made in the book
    by refusing to comment as a result of ongoing legal
    processes.

    Well, one can only hope that when Lance is finished with
    Walsh, Davey will be reduced to living in a cardboard box
    behind the nearest McDonalds. Of course, those already
    living in boxes behind the McDonalds will not appreciate him
    bringing down the values in the neighborhood.

    It does make you wonder.

    It may be the first time her allegations have been
    published, but prior to speaking with Walsh had she kept her
    mouth shut? What was it about Walsh that provoked the
    opening of the floodgates?

    Good question. What's the motive to speak now? Could
    Armstrong's diatribe against [censored] Pound have anything to do
    with it? Did they feel the hypocrisy level had reached
    critical mass? I really don't know when Emma chose to speak,
    but apparently Walsh has been working on the book for three
    years. She is also reported to have kept a contemporaneous
    diary which will make interesting reading a any trial held
    down the road.

    Hey, living in a city where I get to see stupidity in
    action on a daily basis I just might have an opinion on
    this stuff. Especially when you can walk through any casino
    in the city and see people who would rather stuff the last
    dollar of their paycheck into a nickle slot than pay the
    rent. Of course, I can't complain too much. Their stupidity
    is what allows me the privilege of not having to pay a
    state income tax. So drop a couple of quarters the next
    time you're in Vegas.
