Tour de France, stage 16 summary
****, Lance put a fake Stage 4 cancer-cure story over on the public.
Stage 16 should be a cinch! And as he nears the end, maybe a lot of reflective people have stopped buying into Lance's concocted-by-an-agent-for-a-heartening-money- making-miraculous "cancer cure"story. "CANCER"+STEROIDS = $ Look you sports dupes. It doesn't take the brains of an ashtray to deduce that if Armstrong's stage 4 bodywide cancer recovery was free of fiction, his every physiological and cellular aspect would have been studied and scrutinized by researchers to the Nth-degree to determine if his recovery path could be replicated in/by other seriously ill patients. Of course, THAT route would have required long-term, in-depth BLOOD exams and analyses, wouldn't it? |
