He wins one championship and thinks he can do anything. [More laughter.] HODGSON: So I'm just frustrated to be leaving, really, that's how I feel. I'm pleased for Ben. I think he's been cheating all year, but, you know, everybody knows that. I'm joking. SPIES: EPO. HODGSON: No, it's not EPO. I've seen him on a bicycle. He's useless. [Laughter] He kicked my ass all year, but I'll tell you, when it comes to actual power of the legs, he ain't got a chance. |

Damn those folks in Salem had the right idea in 1692! or maybe these folks in history should be the example since Pound IS on a Crusade: http://www.corvalliscommunitypages.c...ensiansall.htm Bill C |

The athletes cheat. Dick Pound thinks that it is OK to do whatever he thinks is reasonable to catch them. Pat McQuaid is mad a Dick Pound for focusing on cycling and for insinuating that cyclists are guilty before the process is over. McQuaid says if any rider linked to Fuentes is found innocent by their federation that he will appeal to CAS, insinuating that all named riders are guilty. The UCI is trying to screw the owners of the grand tours out of their products. The big riders are too selfish to push back against the Pro Tour doping clause so all due process gets eliminated. It sounds like a bad made for TV drama. |

I don't even think Fox is that stupid. Sounds more like something cooked up by Oliver Stone and those folks who tried to give us Survivor Racist or whatever the hell it was. Unfortunately reality is frequently stranger than fiction and in this case it's getting awfully damned hard, as Frank was saying, to find anybody who is an even vaguely sympathetic figure. Of course we have the latest episode from those role models in Washington on how to lie like a rug. Sorry for insulting rugs everywhere.: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/03/wa...=1&oref=slogin Just a snippett: By PHILIP SHENON and MARK MAZZETTI Published: October 3, 2006 JIDDA, Saudi Arabia, Oct. 2 - A review of White House records has determined that George J. Tenet, then the director of central intelligence, did brief Condoleezza Rice and other top officials on July 10, 2001, about the looming threat from Al Qaeda, a State Department spokesman said Monday. The account by the spokesman, Sean McCormack, came hours after Ms. Rice, the secretary of state, told reporters aboard her airplane that she did not recall the specific meeting on July 10, noting that she had met repeatedly with Mr. Tenet that summer about terrorist threats. Ms. Rice, the national security adviser at the time, said it was "incomprehensible" to suggest she had ignored dire terrorist threats two months before the Sept. 11 attacks. Mr. McCormack also said records showed that the Sept. 11 commission had been informed about the meeting, a fact that former intelligence officials and members of the commission confirmed on Monday. Seems to be a public epidemic. Bill C |
