Lance Armstrong


Today the governing body of the American Cycling world concluded Lance Armstrong is guilty of doping even though there was never any physical evidence to prove their case, the United States Anti-Doping Agency used testimony from numerous riders, some already proven dopers as the main thrust of their prosecution. 

In doing so, The USADA stripped Armstrong of all his titles including the Tour De France, problem is the USADA does not have any jurisdiction in France. Their banning of Armstrong who is already retired from the sport is like saying Pete Rose cannot play baseball again, it serves no purpose and has no teeth.

I do not know if Armstrong used drugs to increase oxygenated blood, but I do know many professional cyclist have been involved in altering their performance by science and the entire sport is suspect to cheating
