I think NIKE or NYVELOCITY should start selling limited edition thermos. Make is transparent, and inside place those plastic fake ice cubes…I bet it will be e big hit for Halloween.

Play nice knuckleheads. Or at least don’t “out” those who aren’t seeking an “outing.” And you can’t post rumors. Preparing flash cards…

I don’t want you to get sued and so it’s ok if you want to pull stuff but everything was true and from very reliable sources

schmalz

It’s true when you have two named sources to corroborate, it’s libel when it’s a anonymous goofball posting on the internet, understand Dan Rather?

For a site that uses unauthorized celebrity images to promote itself and sell t shirts you sure are nervous about libel. Read about it. Speculation and libel are not the same.

schmalz

Using celebrity images in a satirical manner is protected, captain knowledge. Accusing someone of something ILLEGAL without supporitng evidence is libel, and illegal.

Of course, we can hardly be expected to return the millions we made from t-shirts as we have gambled those profits at the roulette table – put it all on red, baby!

wake up schmalz

nobody important cares about your retarded smut-ridden brain child enough to sue it..except maybe lance, he’s sue his kids.

Could this be the reasons behind the Toyota United situation? It takes big stones to come forward. Perhaps this news was due to come forward anyway and Frankie is playing the masterful media card.

Niko

Lee, I think you have it reversed. (to the lawyers)Hypothetical scenario: Frankie finds out LA got him canned from Toyota U. Frankie no longer has any possibility of career in Cycling – therefore does not have to abide by "Omerta" and calls NYT’s…

A. Duncan ML

I agree. I think Frankie probably thought to himself after the Toyota situation, "Ok. If we’re playing like that, let’s just go ahead and turn all the cards face up." And, he probably truly wants to help cycling by setting an example for other guys to come forward. I hope it works.

Is it good for this to come out for cycling?

Pulled post showed that drug usage is covered up to

prevent sponsors from learning about bad stuff. Check out last years Bear results and you’ll still see Pulla listed as the winner and CRCA and USCF kept this very quiet.

lee3

Thats some serious hardball – career ending at that. Frankie doesnt quite point the finger @ LA but his wife sure doesnt have any issues with steppin up. That whole LA paraphrase about Frankie having to "go along with his old lady" sounds ridiculous and comes off a bit foolish. I didnt like it.

Timing

Did Frankie run into Floyd this weekend?

Both attended a 2 day race in the US this weekend but maybe not on same day. Vaughters was also there.

Dearest Anonymous Colon Blockage,

Thanks for reading! We pulled the post (which I believe was by you, although there’s no way to tell as you don’t USE YOUR NAME) because there was no proof from anyone, just a "I got this from a good source" rumor; which is a very big stone to throw around when you don’t have any proof to back it up with. If you have facts, come clean and let us know Mr. Smartypants. Otherwise quit bothering us with you nonsense – we’re busy with our secret initation rites with the USCF and the CRCA.

PS – it involves spanking, let your mind wander…

I bet the second rider is Livingston! Vaughters would never come out like this with Cref on the line + I dont think he was on the juice. He just had questionable bike handling.

Supposedly Lance extended the olive branch to Livingston but I cant understand what the beef was about. KL left Postal to head up his own squad and when that fell through he took whatever came up. That’s called professional survival. Maybe postal should have offered him a return contract instead of letting Telekom snatch’em up. I thought the animosity towards KL was unwarranted – and I can only blame a team captain for throwing wood onto those flames.

DHR

Spanking you say? Now I will never be part of the CRCA…That is just too shameful. Oh well I guess I better get back to shaving my legs and thinking about how good I look in lycra.

we don’t dope to win. We dope to keep our jobs. It is a part of the job. if you can’t wrap your single-minded, naive cat3 minds around that, sorry.

Funny how..

schmalz never stands up for nyc racers this well when they get bashed on his website. But he will for somebody who couldn’t give to shits about his jerry springer webshite.

If we don’t watch because we’re sick of dopers, you won’t have jobs, slappy.

Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha! Take that Shen! The website is mine! The anon-o-creep said so!

Oh, and hello knuckle, I’m not defending anyone. I’m saying don’t post any slanderous rumors, leave that to Depeche Mode!

Ugly

If you’re so concerned about libel, etc., why not at least make this page login? I guess it doesn’t matter anyway since the login is flawed, as it doesn’t require a confirmation email or the like.

lee3

Sheesh..Is that you Campo? I’m gonna have bust out the swift boat issues;)

what would a campaign be without mudslinging!

campo is the best b/c

he is on crack on makes very little sense. Lee3 is too sane to win this competition, and i think he is voting for himself, many times.

Hey schmalz

they would go to the log in pages if they didnt have a choice. Stop acting like you couldn’t do away with the slander if you actually wanted to.

lee3

The fess up…I did cast one vote for me and another for my best friend in the bird world, Clay, my parrot. Even though he pooped in my shoes last week while screaming bombs away, he’s still my boy but…I didnt like it.

"we don’t dope to win. We dope to keep our jobs. It is a part of the job."

That’s an amazing statement, considering that a pro’s job is to win races. It’s like saying, "We don’t dope to win. We dope to win!"

Littlefield

Dammit!!!

I take one day off and I miss a juicy, libelous doping-related post. I live for those! Can someone please paraphrase the "pulled post" so I can catch up?

Prospect Park

Pros Dope. Schmalz gets upset says what we are talking about is slandorous. Prospect Park (me) calls Schmalz a fart head. Schmalz Quotes Depechmode. Re enstates login for this page. Eguene gives his thoughts on (hee hee) doping. Then more nonsense from others and the discusssing gets boring.

Eugene

Yeah, Prospect Park, it is a bit more entertaining without the login. But it limits guys like you to mere innuendo, (hee hee) dick.

Sing with me!

"Oh I’m picking out a thermos for you

not an ordinary thermos for you

but the extra best thermos you can buy

with vinyl and stripes and a cup built right in

I’m picking out a thermos for you

and maybe a barometer too

and what else can I buy

so on me you’ll rely

a rear end thermometer too "

ah… good times.
