All tag results for 'doping'

Sometimes the long relationships are the hardest to endure (especially with a cheater) — and that's why Nike is dropping Livestrong like a sack of potatoes!

Lance Armstrong hasn't been making new friends, and it looks like even things he touches can't seem to keep ones that have been around for almost a decade! NINE YEARS the relationship between Nike and Livestrong has gone on, and it's now gone!

Officials have said that Livestrong is “deeply grateful” to Nike, which helped raise $100 million for the organization. Here's more of what they said:

Wait, what??? LOLz

Golfer Vijay Singh has been using deer antler spray to improve his game, but after the PGA Tour sued him for using the substance, he's now suing them for being reckless with how they exercised the Anti-Doping Program.

The suit states that the PGA Tour debunked Singh to "public humiliation and ridicule" for months.

And in a statement delivered by Vijay's lawyer, Peter Ginsberg, the golfer said:

When is the doping madness going to stop???

It's been enough that we've had to deal with Lance Armstrong's doping scandal, but now Olympic discus silver medalist, Darya Pishchalnikova has been banned from the Olympics for 10 years, and is also set to get her medal taken away.

Last year, Pishchalnikova received a silver medal at the London Olympics, but after she tested positive for the illegal drug Oxandrilone, she won't be able to compete for a whole decade.

Federation president, Valentin Balakhnichev said:

The U.S. Department of Justice's lawsuit that was looming in the distance has now crashed down on top of Lance Armstrong, and we're hearing that someone who used to love him might have to testify against him!

Lance better hope there's a little love left, which we wouldn't bet on, because Kristin Armstrong is his EX-WIFE!

The DoJ filed a 33 page court document, and brings about the possibility that she may be called as a witness in the trial.

Did you think Lance Armstrong could come half-way clean and everyone would just forget about what he did??

NOPE! The U.S. Justice Department has officially filed a lawsuit against Lance (it was inevitable) and his company Tailwind Sports for the millions of dollars that the U.S. Postal Service used in sponsoring the cycling team! We'd say they have every right to, too!

So how much are they going for?

Hey Lance Armstrong!

We're sorry to hear that you're unable to take part in a swimming competition in Texas, but maybe you shouldn't have cheated in sports for all those years and then followed it all up with lies. You'd probably be able to compete in anything you wanted had you not done that! Just sayin'!

LOLz!

Armstrong wanted to compete at the Masters South Central Zone Swimming Championships in his home town of Austin this weekend. It has nothing to do with cycling, it isn't subjected to USA or World Anti-Doping Agency codes. No prob, right?

Wrong!

This was probably the best idea.

Lance Armstrong had plans to be interviewed under oath by the US Anti-Doping Agency in hopes to clean up the insanity behind how he doped his way to stardom, and to try to not get banned from cycling forever.

But after meeting his deadline today to let the USADA know if he was gonna see them — Armstrong decided that he didn't want to be interviewed.
