Leipheimer, who is among at least 16 people besides Armstrong whom
Landis has implicated in various doping acts, declined to discuss the
investigation Saturday.

Mr. Lafferty, yes or no, have you stopped beating your wife?

How many different articles have you referenced in which parties interviewed
by Novitsky have been told not to discuss anything said, or even if they had
been interviewed? Do you know for a fact that Levi hasn't already been
interviewed? If not, is there a reason that Levi should be speaking out in
advance of being interviewed? What purpose would it serve at this point?

Serious questions.

You of all people-- well... it is B. Lafferty.
Trying to smear anyone who doesn't "discuss" (comment, etc. etc.)
ongoing investigations, when the good-advice thing ("one reason you
hire a lawyer even if you know you are innocent") seems to *always* be
"don't say anything to anyone outside the circle".

I mean, even someone who hasn't hired a lawyer knows better than to
comment, if he reads the newspapers.

Laff - seriously - I am starting to see everyone's point here. What
do you expect him to do?

Everyone's either figured or been told by counsel to stfu when it
comes to this - the early 'spill the beans' days are over.

Good counsel tells you to shut up because even if you tell the 'truth'
as you know it memory failure and other's bad recollections of what
you said 3 months ago will fuck you up.

I agree that Levi is doing the prudent thing. He's undoubtedly lawyered
up and probably working on a deal.

Starting to see everyone's point....? You're not stupid - what took
you so long?

It's fine and dandy to come down on any side of a question, but you
should be careful not to align yourself with whack-a-doodles - it
won't reflect well on you. For example, LANCE_hating/loving_ex-
lawyers_presumed-alcoholics who have a history of shit stirring are
probably best left to their own devices. I'm not naming anyone in
particular - it's hypothetical, like Barry's intelligence.

Sure, but my point is that, if he's under investigation and has testified,
he's been told, by Novitsky, not to say anything. By now, at least 40 of
your links to stories have said that. And since you're into the idea that
Novitsky is going to bring down the tent, with everyone in it, and Levi's a
subset of that same tent, and then you rail on him for being quiet about
it... well yeah, there's a certain inconsistency there.

Many posts here come out looking like cheerleading for a side. Why? The
facts will eventually come out, whatever they are. And then there will be
time for the "I told you so" posts, and maybe even the "Don't you feel like
a stupid toad that they had you fooled?" stuff. But until then, why the
emotion, why the cheerleading? I'm beginning to understand why people give
up trying to get the other side to understand and try to blow them up
instead.

Dumbass,

The facts already came out: Lance and Levi are bigtime dopers. What other
facts are going to come out that will change that conclusion?

Thanks,
