Floyd Landis is on Larry King

[snapdragen]

Right now.

Crud. I missed it. What did he say??

[snapdragen]

Between barking dogs and chatty mothers I didn't catch the whole thing. Floyd was via satellite, he seems very sincere, and a little upset that his parents have been dragged into this. Lance A. called in and defended FL's reputation, slammed the lab that runs the test. FL's doctor was on too, but I didn't hear much of what he said. I need to see it again, but right now, I believe Floyd.

TV listings show Larry King is on CNN again at 9:00, I wonder if it's a repeat?

[snapdragen]

Yup - it's on again, right now. CNN

They have a transcript:

Velo News also has the transcript. I thought it was a good interview especially since his doctor Brent Kay was on with him as well.

I was also impressed at Lance's comments. I find it Very interesting that Lance is VERY supportive of Floyd (depsite the ups and downs of their friendship) when he never said a word in support of Tyler. Does this mean anything?

[DrBee]

Hmmmmmm... good point. It makes you wonder, doesn't it?

[RoadRaven]

Mallio - VERY good point

And Lance has alot to lose in terms of his own doping scandel credibility - so to put himself on the line like this is significant

Thank you for posting the transcript link.

Good interview. I still believe that Floyd is innocent!

Have a nice day!

Me too Denise... I see him as this sweet innocent kid from mennonite country who is finding out just how ugly the world is.
I saw his mom on tv last night and SHE is a kick.. I think she can hold her own quite well and he doesn't have to worry about her!!!

My take on Lance's support of FL is that Lance wants him back on Discovery BAD, as FL is really the only thing out there right now. I don't think he really had any use for Ty.

Speaking of LA, check the photos of his RAGBRAI ride. Where'd he get those beefcake arms?? Looks like he's turning Tri-athlete!
