Subject: RE: "Very cool announcement" from Lance on Thursday re: 2010...Having Livestrong attached to the team is cool... but having Big Pharm sponsor Lance may just be a little too much. I always snicker when I see some drug commercial spouting off a bunch of side effects and then encouraging you to go tell your doctor that you need some of what they're selling. Heck, they'll even let you get hooked with a free sample. So, yeah, I must say I'd much rather see a Livestrong/Nike/Trek team, than Team Eli Lilly, or something like that. (Im sure the French media would be all over the Big Pharma/doping angle too. ) |
