Comments on: Lance Armstrong Is Outraged Over AFLD Misbehaviour Claims http://www.bicycle.net/2009/lance-armstrong-is-outraged-over-afld-misbehaviour-claims cycling news, product reviews, original bicycling essays, bike podcasts and video -- Tour de France 2010 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 19:29:34 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: Miles Feather http://www.bicycle.net/2009/lance-armstrong-is-outraged-over-afld-misbehaviour-claims#comment-80116 Miles Feather Sat, 11 Apr 2009 22:33:26 +0000 http://www.bicycle.net/?p=6138#comment-80116 I, along with the rest of the world, wishes that the French would STOP beating a dead horse. If we really want to get picky about professional conduct, sportsmanship, and chain-of-evidence (the handling of the test specimens), I am certain that we could find many questionable procedures and methods. I believe that if the French are so hell bent on the importance of these tests then the cyclist or being tested or his legal representative should be present from the time the specimen(s) is/are giving through the process to insure that there is absolutely no question for error. The French are so hard up to pin down an American rider they threw Floyd Landis under the bus and got away with it because he didn't have the support that Armstrong does. The bottom line is, "WE ARE TIRED OF THE CRY BABY FRENCH! GROW UP!" I, along with the rest of the world, wishes that the French would STOP beating a dead horse.

The bottom line is, “WE ARE TIRED OF THE CRY BABY FRENCH! GROW UP!”
