Rules? What rules? When Armstrong was busted for a steroid, yes Corticosteroid, in 1999... He produced a backdated TUE (Therapeutic Rules Exemption). This was AFTER he was busted, not before. The rules state that a rider must apply for an exemption and have that exemption approved before competition.
Rules? How about the 1 hour episode while making a official wait for a blood test. Armstrong has already been accused of manipulating his hematocrit values so that he doesn't test positive. Again, rules? For who Armstrong. What a joke.
Rules? The man makes a living off of the cancer community. Nothing honorable about that. Then, he goes off to threaten and sue all those that fight him. No more. There are way too many witnesses out that are speaking up against him. Omerta, my azz. Lance rules. No more.
