And why do you think that someone made a coke joke? Three guesses Laggard, and the first 2 don't count.
Look at that freakin' outfit. How can it not draw out jokes? He must have been on some sort of recreational drug to even put it on.

Well, lame if you want, but I think he's serious about that part, which is sad. It means he doesn't even have a clue on the nature of drug addiction.

Doesn't look like he's enjoying himself very much... I've never taken ecstasy or coke but I kind of figured it would at least made you smile. The ad would be a lot more effective and less embarrassing if he were having fun with it.

It's a f'ing ad people. He got paid to look silly and promote this product. Lots of famous people with no drug use at all have done dumber looking things for a few bucks. Trying to make some connection between this ADVERTISEMENT and drug use is just stupid.
Hell, Armstrong is pushing some five hour energy drink. Maybe he was a speed problem? Maybe he needs the extra cash to fund his EPO habit? What's next Lance? Colon cleansing infomercials?

If Boonen is a drug addict, he must be one of the most successful one ever! He continually functions at an elite level in an athletic endeavor. By definition, he does not have a drug problem.
