Lance is a democrat. I don’t know what he did or didn’t do, but I do believe there should be a statute of limitations on this sort of thing.

For them to come along after 10+ years is ridiculous. They had more than enough time to prove their allegations years ago, and didn’t, or couldn’t.

I’m with Lance on this, I’d tell them to kiss my a.. and be done with it.

There is a statute of limitations - 8 years if I am not mistaken - but USADA decided to go with 2 year old blood tests, that had not resulted in LA's suspension (ie "clean"), and witness statements (as far as we know) relating to (purported) incidents +10 years back. I can understand why LA used the epithet "star chamber" to characterize the USADA.

Re your tagline, when Iowa was recommissioned and based in Norfolk, there was a proliferation of bumper stickers with a picture of the big guns, and the caption, "USS Iowa. Go ahead, make my day!"

Re the article, I agree. Whatever happened all that time back, Mr. Armstrong is in a position to walk away, and I don't blame him.

There is a statute of limitations - USADA’s own. IIRC, it is seven years. The charges go back 17.

Kind of telling, to me.
