First I want to thank all that sent links. You just gave me some good reading material for me during my lunch hour.

Hear this about Tyler just left me with my mouth open and feel completely saddened by it. But, I am a person that truely believes there are two sides to every story and I choose not to come to any conclusions just yet. I guess I am also optimistic.

And just for my opinion on Lance, when he decided to ride this tour I figured he would retire after it just to start enjoying a different type of life style. I recently read both his books learned much about him. Although I learned that he was on the cocky side in his younger years, I also believe that with all the testing this guy goes through "randomly all year" (not just during racing) that if he was using, they would have found it. If what he says he goes through as far as testing goes is not true, I am sure some one that does the testing especially the french would have spoken up. When they stopped him from taking his wife to the hospital when she went into labor to draw blood I just through up my hands and said "give it up already, the guy just works hard to be the rider that he is."

Well, this is all just my view. Others might disagree and that is ok. Just thought I would add my two cents. ~ Jo
