I read that article earlier... the organization that supposedly revoked his wins isn't even the official BICYCLING SPORTS authority, right?

Sounds like Armstrong just got tired of being hunted as a witch for 20 years and just told them to go fuck themselves.

The USADA (Anti-Doping Agency) can fuck with its own country's athletes as much as they want, apparently.

Yeah, USADA has no authority to take away the tour wins. And suck bags of cock.

The actual authorities and at least one judge have all told the USADA to drop their pursuit of Armstrong. Plus, as you all have pointed out, they have absolutely no authority whatsoever.

So why is this front page news on every website?

Fun Fact: 6 of the 7 runners-up to Lance Armstrong also have either admitted to or been found guilty of doping.

Just ran across that.
