IMO there are a group of posters who have a set mind about most issues. There is never any give or hardly any acknowledgment on any on else's view. I have apologised a few times on this sight and if I am wrong I am happy to admit it. You may well get fed up with the same opinion or the same doping issues that come up and all of us are guilty of repeating ourselves. I can see how WBT would annoy some just like my views do as well.. But if he does not have a link or proof to something he has stated then just move on, take the victory , we can all see it.
It's no good posting post after post asking for the same proof if he has not got it.
Blazing posted that I said Armstrong never doped and I only admitted he doped when he got caught
, which is something I have never said , most know my views about doping. I have asked Blazing for an apology for making false accusations and also the insulting nature of the post. He will not apologise even though he was totally wrong. This is the sort of blind ignorance and immature behaviour that we could well do without. I will defend myself against insults and some time insults will fly back . We all do it. But IMO it got a bit out of hand with WBT.
Yes, you have asked for an apology.
Seems I put a real burr up your backside.
Now, let's look at the offending post where I accuse you of what you claim.......Blazing Saddles wrote:He'll respond in the usual, fan boy with a man crush, manner.
He'll totally ignore the article and question, repeat 7 Tour wins, best ever rider etc and decorate his post a heap of smilies because it's the closest he can get to humour.
Funny. I fail to see any reference to what you claim.
So, how about an apology to me for your deliberate misinterpretation?
On second thoughts, don't bother, just drop it.

I answered all the questions asked. I answered honestly and did not defend Armstrong's doping.
I never posted any smiles . I did not ignore any of the questions or ignore the article in question
I did the opposite of every think you implied and suggested I would do.
Your post above was made because of your limited perception of people and what they really think.
So all those child remarks and implications that you have made are WRONG.0 -

As for the article, you made no attempt to respond to Bo Duke's question:Bo Duke wrote:Hey Ray,
How do you respond to both the article below but more importantly the response LA gives under oath in the video?

I would be happy to see Armstrongs views on the film ...why not? I do think he was the best tour winner, That IMO.
I was well aware that he and just about every other team was doping as well .
I responded to the article and gave my opinion. I do not have to give a response to every single word that was spoken.
If you want to put me on ignore ,go ahead. No response from you is better than the usual insults and childish responses you usually post,,,,bye then0 -

He wasn't the best Tour winner ever, there is no winner for that period. He created a 3 week Sportive in France during the month of July and was the first to finish 7 times.0 -

The idea that even if his record stood he was a better rider than the likes of Merckx and Indurain is highly debatable also. Obviously, in my opinion."In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"
@gietvangent0 -
I think Merckx was without doubt the greatest rider. No dispute from me on that point.
Armstrong only really focused on the tour and he was very difficult to beat. So just for the tour I give LA the nod.
Both riders have been convicted of doping0 -

This is how the very few on this forum act, not just you rayjay but you are a big culprit of it. You say something never happened, you get proven wrong and you just change the basis of the argument, it's the marginal gains thread all over. I

sjmclean, don't pick and edit comments to fit in with your point.
I ANSWERED ALL THE QUESTIONS ASKED. Go take a look at the post.
I am allowed to say I enjoyed Armstrongs tour wins. I have never denied he doped. The article shown shows him lying. I never defended his lies one bit as Tailwind claimed I would.

No action there means no action anywhere.
The Likely Lads are still here, but probably taking the opportunity to re-write
their manifesto.
Maybe a thread along the lines of: "Is Kimmage on the Garmin Bandwagon?" might grab
their attention.
Just WHAT do you have to do to get banned from the Asylum? Genuinely intrigued.
Suggest that it's impossible to win the Tour without doping - and therefore Lemond must have doped.
Don't agree. LeMond's wins came before EPO. He very quickly slipped down the peloton after that.
And whilst there is still the potential to micro-dose EPO and blood dope and get away with it, there will always be problems. From what I have read on the subject (and I of course may well be wrong), the testing procedure is nowhere near good enough to pick up on those who choose these methods. Therefore it will still happen. That's my belief and that of many others who get pilloried.
This doesn't need an affadavit to understand, and it's pretty naive to not think that cycling is still seriously affected as are all sports that rely largely on stamina.0 -

Its not from this thread. which I pointed out.
I made my point quite clear. its all there to see on the LA thread.

Perhaps you could find better things to do with your time.
