Who's the Uniballer's Friend at Baxter?
BLafferty
"...help severe blood-loss trauma patients survive, but it had
incredible oxygen vector characteristics. A "Super-booster" for an
athlete. Baxter (the manufacturer) never angled it that way, as it had
no legitimate medical application for that use. Armstrong found out
about it from a friend at Baxter and arranged to secure a large portion
of the supply after it failed its clinical trials and was rejected.
Armstrong needed medical help to figure out how to best apply it, and he
brought in Ferarri. Apparently this drug was responsible for many of his
'superhuman' efforts."
It's not clear to me from what I've read in the Boulder Report whether
HemAssist was actually responsible for Lance's superhuman efforts but I
do believe that an athlete like Lance (and others mentioned in the
Boulder Report who appear to have attempted to use similar products
including Michael Rasmussen) would want to get their hands on it if they
believed it could boost their performance beyond the ability of blood
doping or EPO.

This is an obvious Lie. You have no friends. You therefore should vacate
your domicile and leave the country before being convicted of perjury by rbr

Back up there a second, ol hoss. I thought we executed THEN
convicted.

all of Lance's old blood.
But the question is - if Hemassit worked why the positive 1999 EPO
tests? Wouldn't you keep using the 'good stuff' ?
Or is it a case of lost efficacy and needing to go back and forth
between the two like a famer does with crops. ?
Lance Armstrong Investigation: What the SI Article Tells Us
Now that the full version of the SI article is out, it looks like we
had the most significant news in yesterday's synopsis. Although much
of what SI wrote about is old news, they did give a lot of new details
that we didn't have before. In addition, at least one new item from
the article is a potential bomb shell for Lance in terms of the
Novitzky investigation: the HemAssist issue. Here is why...
I've done some reading about HemAssist and found a very interesting
commentary on it in reading Bicycling.com's "Boulder Report." The
commentary explains that HemAssist was thought to be a super drug for
an endurance athlete--even better than EPO or blood doping. HemAssist
was designed and claimed to add hemoglobin to a person's blood supply
in a way that increased both the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood
and make the oxygen more quickly accessible relative to human blood.
Basically, more oxygen delivered to the muscles means less fatigue at
higher power outputs.
HemAssist was being tested as an aid for trauma patients who lost
blood but it was believed to have these properties for athletes as
well. Bottom line: if using EPO is like adding a turbo charger then
HemAssist would be like adding a dual turbo or even more as is in the
Bugatti Veyron Super Sport which uses four turbos! Importantly, there
were (are) no drug tests for HemAssist; it's a greedy Tour de France
contender's dream!!
In the Boulder Report, Joe Lindsay also explains why Lance's alleged
acquisition and use of HemAssist is of interest to Jeffrey Novitzky.
Lance and his attorney, Mark Fabiani, claim that the FDA is wasting
taxpayer money looking into some old bike races held on foreign soil.
Conventional wisdom was that the FDA was interested because Lance had
federal funding from US Postal and doping would constitute fraud. Then
we learned that Novitzky may have been looking at the drug chain where
legalized drugs such as EPO were being distributed illegally. However,
Joe Lindsay has another and, in my view, very compelling response to
someone who asks: Why should the FDA care about Lance's Tour de France
wins? Here is his response:
(B)ecause one of the most famous sportsmen of the last half-
century stands accused of buying stocks of a tightly controlled
investigational drug – manufactured by an American pharmaceutical
company and intended for use only in clinical trial settings under the
regulation of the FDA or its European counterparts and which is
illegal to use for any other purpose, or even for a private citizen to
possess, much less transport internationally – to pull off a
monumental sporting fraud. I think that subject is well within the
FDA’s investigatory wheelhouse. And I eagerly await Fabiani and
Armstrong’s explanation for why it’s not.
Again, why would Lance have wanted HemAssist? To quote a friend who
Even after we discover all that Novitzky has been up to during the
past year, Lance may be the only one who ever knows whether it was
HemAssist that allowed him to drop his rivals on climbs such as L'Alpe
d'Huez and beat the best dopers in the individual time trials or
not...In any case, we now know more about why Novitzky and his team is
not going to give up easily and will be a very difficult adversary for
Lance and his gold plated PR and legal team...

Lance's at Baxter" and get him/her to testify against Lance in
exchange for immunity. Details from this insider on the drugs he/she
personally supplied Lance should be the proverbial "smoking gun" or
"nail in the coffin" that everyone has been waiting for. You would
really have to start to wonder what's going on if that person is never
identified, wouldn't you?
Fred
The Clintons had him killed. You'll never find the body.

I agree. It should be easy enough to inventory the supply, find out who
had access and provide a link, phone, text, email to Armstrong. I would
expect that to be set out at least in part in an indictment. The detail
might have to await a Bill of Particulars during criminal discovery.

Are the Clintons aliens ? And in that case why would an alien want a
blow job unless it was to provide deep cover.
RicodJour
The _cigar_ was the alien and it found deep cover.

Perhaps it was a Viagra selling friend from Russia or Nigeria.

I don't have enough information to discern if he just made

I read it.
He says, "t's not clear to me from what I've read in
the Boulder Report whether HemAssist was actually
responsible for Lance's superhuman efforts but I do
believe that an athlete like Lance (and others [...])
would want to get their hands on it if they believed

of blood doping or EPO."
So basically, he doesn't know jack shit. He has an
assumption.

Hey Jowls, why are you (surprise) conveniently ignoring the people
that were actual researchers involved in the actual research for the
actual drug and actually believe that the stuff would have no actual
benefit? Oh, right, you're actually just an asshole with a
preconceived opinion and an engorged LANCE-induced weewee.
Sorry, I forgot. No offense. Fwap on.
