There will come a point where the only positive way out [excuse the pun] is to ask for forgiveness...... which the americans will initially scorn but then lap up to the max!

Radioshack sticks with Armstrong, saying the allegations are unsubstantiated. Even though at least one cyclist has indeed substantiated them.
Also, Armstrong is more popular that Bono, which I think is supposed to be a compliment, but could very well be a backhanded insult - who knows?0 -

These won't be popular, but screw y'all!
Lance "Big Tex", he came from Austin
The races he won, must have been exhaustin
We all know he's clean
Just like he's always been
Floyd? "Sour milk - He's lyin'!"
Lance Armstrong- the cycling saviour
As well as the Tour, he beat lethal cancer
Floyd is a jerk
With that drunken, ginge smirk
I just wish he was 6-feet under!
Lance Armstrong - the champion in yellow
If you say he doped, he'll bellow and bellow
Floyd Landis tried
What a cheater, he lied
Armstrong's the #1 fellow!The most painful climb in Northern Ireland http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs200.snc1/6776_124247198694_548863694_2335754_8016178_n.jpg0 -
There once was a cuthbert named paul,
his hero was heading for a fall.
"But no, it's a ploy!",
said the biggest fan boy,
while everyone else, they did lol.0 -

Oh dear...
LOL
If you're over 30, Lance is gonna get off the bike and kill you for ever using L-O-LThe most painful climb in Northern Ireland http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs200.snc1/6776_124247198694_548863694_2335754_8016178_n.jpg0 -
Well, I'm not over 30, but I agree in any case that using lol is rarely acceptable. Except in limericks.0

You simply have to admit
Lance before was always most fit
It came as a shock when
In two thousand and ten
His performance was simply quite, er, disappointing.

“We understand that riders may be being offered sweetheart deals to change testimony that they have given in the past, under oath,”
But they aren't being offered deals to LIE about it. That's the major flaw with the lawyer's argument. The implication that the US Government is somehow bribing these witnesses to say things that didn't happen.0 -
The lawyer is trying to cloud this. The USADA are offering deals to riders. They're not the law and they're allowed to do it under the WADA code.
I don't believe anyone involved in the case has said anything under oath as they're not a requirement of doping cases.
I hope Lance got this guy from Lawyers-4-U because if he's paying him a lot of money he might want to a refund.Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.0 -

He was out of his mind going for the comeback...
I reckon he would have got away with it if he had kept away...

No actual X-rated photos though, which was disappointing (although thinking about it they would have been of Favre not her, so it's probably just as well).
PS It wasn't my intention to start a limerick competition, it was just a silly joke.Twitter: @RichN950 -
a texan called lance wearing yellow
for a laugh got a nickname of 'mellow'
but a man called simeoni
covered in phlegm and alone, he
would say that lance is a hypocritical cheating tw.. er fellow"I get paid to make other people suffer on my wheel, how good is that"
