Armstrong couldn't be happy from the results. He said... "I commend them for reaching it(decision), I look forward to continuing my life as a father, a competitor and an advocate in the fights against cancer without this distraction."

... remember his accusers??? Floyd Landis, Yaroslav Popovych, Allen Lim, Tyler Hamilton and Liaison Stephanie Mcilvain. Floyd spark this investigation by sending emails to anti-doping officials, and quoted Armstrong using performance drugs. Hamilton in 60 minutes stated "I saw in his refrigerator. I saw him inject it more than one time like we all did, like I did many, many times,".

Frankie's wife Betsy Andreu who also testify against Lance using performance drug, stated. "This is what happens when you have a lot of money. It's why Lance hired the attorneys he hired with political backgrounds. He got it quashed."

Armstrong defender attorney Mark Fabiani and U.S. Attorney stated that they could not discuss the outcome of the contempt motion because proceedings were sealed.

... It must have been a relief for Armstrong to see this drop. I wonder why the public cannot see the proceeding. I am curious as how did it go. I would love to watch the proceedings same as I love to watch Judge Judy.

This is history of sports being written. pretty cool, I thought I share it.
