Yeah, you already said that. Short-term memory, hello?

"The Lance Pharmstrong story (SCA II).

Balco Factoids:

1) Tammy Thomas was NEVER a Balco client (no dossiers)
2) Olympic medalist swimmer Amt Van Dyken lied under oath too, but was NOT charged with perjury (only Tammy and NFL wife beater, EPO and steroid user Dana Stubbleffield)
3) All TV athletes are on drugs and most BIG events are fixed."


Did you really not remember typing this? That's scary.

Expected since he is at least half-insane if not fully insane.

Thomas found guilty of 3 counts of perjury. Pretty dramatic stuff when the verdict was read (from CN):

"I already had one career taken away from me," she yelled at the jury. "Look me in the eye. You can't do that!"

Visibly shaken, Thomas then turned to the prosecutors’ table and made a similar statement.

"Look me in the eye,” she said. “You like to destroy people's lives."

from ESPN-
After Thomas was discovered to have used norbolethone, she was hit with a lifetime ban from her sport. On the day the ban was upheld following her appeal, some in the Olympic community braced for a hostile response, believing Thomas had a reputation for erratic behavior. USA Cycling closed its offices in Colorado Springs for the day, and employees of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency and Catlin's UCLA lab were apprised of the situation.

Whoa, that is something. So they actually expect her to go postal?
