Lance Armstrong and Drug testing

Slideshowbob

If LA is so innocent why has he got an attitude towards testers?

I gather the testers are operating within the rules otherwise we would hear about it!

Generally people are unhappy with this sort of stuff, kinda like if your boss standing at the doorway each morning to make sure you arrive on time.

You bitch and moan about but you know thems the rules so get on with it, which is what he is saying really.

Have to say that I would be a feed up with the constant checks, but only from an inconvience point of view.

Don't think LA has much to fear from the testers, he is well used to the game at this stage!

Come on, if you had somebody should up every few weeks and make you piss in a jar you'd probably end up getting sick of it too.

For the record - I don't mind the controls. Part of the game. Test me anytime, anywhere, result will always be the same, nothing to find.

I happened to be tested myself back in the day. I wouldn't agree people are generally unhappy about "this sort of stuff" if they have nothing to hide, should be glad there are tests there to supposedly erradicate cheats!

Comparing with your boss clock watching is not really an equivalent - guys like LA make millions from sponsorship etc on basis that they are not cheats. Sponsorship increases the costs of the products these guys endorse and we have to pay full whack for!

Maybe he only had a little bit of piddle left after his spin and it wasn't enough for 2 different testers? Happens me all the time.

He was training on the Tourmalet today.
