Sorry, this is a subscription site. I've read some reports about what was said over on slowtwitch.com in the forums. Sounds like Lance asked to be on the show for some damage control and made some very emphatic statements/denials of ever using banned PEDs.
Didn't hear it for myself, but sounds interesting. Oh ... and I'm too cheap to pay Rome to hear Lance spew. -- Bob C.

Anderson was on ESPN this morning and he came across as very credible.

Interesting. Which rbr are you tuning in to? Rome and Armstrong go back several years together. Rome essentially worships the ground Armstrong walks on; water too for that matter. Do you really think they'd let anyone calling in question Armstrong's veracity? If you do, I have real estate for you.

I'm a little surprised. Don't PR people counsel not to give these obviously dumbass comments wings by replying to them? Seems to me the typical LA thing to do would be to say nothing and file additional lawsuits? Since the guy has no proof and can't even remember the name of this alleged stuff you'd think his lawyer would be cringing.

If I run into them again, I'll be certain to ask them.

Would you believe Lance Armstrong's lawyer?
Ha ... I couldn't say. I'm in dangerous territory here. I'm married to a lawyer and right now she's in the room using my fax machine. Gotta lay low.

Wow! That actually made sense. I'm astounded to be in agreement!

Funny. There are at least three possibilities: 1. He's credible and telling the truth. 2. He appears credible but would/will not under cross-examination. 3. He's a true grifter, appears credible, will not fold under cross-examination.

Do you apply a courtroom standard of justice in your daily life? If you do, you're in idiot. If you don't, you're a hypocrite.

Well, most people don't..but only because the penalty isn't incarceration or a huge monetary fine and a criminal record. So there's no need to do so in a practical sense, or out of expediency.
