Win At All Costs

Another disgraced "winner" will most likely be stripped of his title:
  • PARIS-- Tour de France champion Floyd Landis will fight to clear his name and keep his hard-won title after his backup urine sample confirmed high testosterone levels Saturday.

    Following the results of the "B" sample, Landis was fired by his Swiss team, Phonak. He also faces a two-year ban from USA Cycling, which is responsible for sanctions against the American rider.

Here's the kicker though:
  • Henson said this week that the rider had tested positive for an testosterone-epitestosterone ratio of 11:1--well above the 4:1 limit.
  • Landis has hired high-profile American lawyer Howard Jacobs, who has represented several athletes in doping cases. Jacobs plans to go after the UCI for allegedly leaking information regarding the sample testing.

  • Since the Phonak team was informed of the positive test on July 27, Landis and his defense team have offered varying explanations as to the high testosterone reading--including cortisone shots taken for pain in Landis' degenerating hip; drinking beer and whiskey the night before; thyroid medication; and his natural metabolism.
Almost 3 times the established limit. A lawyer attacking the process rather than the results. Changing explanations as to how a synthetic hormone rather than a naturally occurring one appeared in the sample. It all screams guilty to anyone with an ounce of sense.

A woman went to her doctor for a followup visit after the doctor had prescribed testosterone (a male hormone) for her. She was a little worried about some of the side effects she was experiencing.

"Doctor, the hormones you've been giving me have really helped, but I'm afraid that you're giving me too much. I've started growing hair in places that I've never grown hair before."

The doctor reassured her. "A little hair growth is a perfectly normal side effect of testosterone. Just where has this hair appeared?"

"On my balls."

breaking news from

Landis will be a new addition to the huge balloons in the Bud Billiken parade. It seems as if his head has increased to such a size that he needs 50 people with strings attached to keep him down to earth.

Always on the second Saturday in August, it began in 1929. The Bud Billiken parade started as a promotional idea through the Chicago Defender newspaper. The paper had a weekly column in the children’s section under the pen name "Bud Billiken." Writer Willard Motley wrote the material and was the original "Bud Billiken." However, Motley’s association with the name Billiken is an off-spring the true origin of the concept.

The Billiken and its representation originated in China. The Chinese consider the Billiken to be a symbol of good luck, and the God of Laughter, Happiness, Merry making and Good Health. The Chinese believed that the presence of the Billiken with his pointed head, pot belly, bat-like ears and whimsical smile, when kept in their homes, would protect and insure a happy, pleasant atmosphere. When worn, it would dispel clouds of trouble and bring joy into life! He was a patron of beauty and guardian angel of children and it is this "Billiken" for which theme of the Bud Billiken Parade was created.

Billiken (symbol)


The event originated as a "parade" of news paper delivery boys down what was then called Grand Blvd. into Washington Park for a cook out. Either way, today the Billiken is a legendary character that serves as a symbol of pride, happiness, and hope for young Black people. The Chicago parade attracts hundreds of thousands of people along its route. For more information call 312-225-3710.

Hey, how about the story in the Trib about the City hiring a "fashion consultant" to help Chicago's fashion image? WTF???? That's a strong indication of what's important to that idiotic Daley, and it ain't crime or putting more cops on the street....

You can tell by the tone and the racial comments on this board as well as many blogs on the Internet that the working class white people are getting to a boiling point with the criminal and irresponsible actions of the minorities that is costing all of us trillions of dollars in programs that they are demanding and getting.

The Race War is already in progress. Just like Hitler in W.W.II, first comes the Jew Bashing then comes the actions of annihilation.

Take the post of that woman free loading off the churh:

Fuck this breeder cunt. Popping out kids and can't afford shit. Throw this nasty bitch to the curb already. What the fuck? How many THOUSANDS has sge gotten and how many jobs has she refused?

This is so fucking ridiculous!

I am tired of these fucking people who do anything they want without any responsibility for their actions, crying poor!

The only thing this "thing" should be given is having her TUBES TIED!

UNFUCKING BELIEVABLE!

And watch how many assholes throw money at her too!

This is one pissed off person. And if there is one there is millions.

I have a feeling there will be social unrest and civil war in this Country soon. Be prepared and arm yourself!

But don't coming knocking on my bobm shelter door when the shit hits the fan.
