"SSDD."
Most of us can ascertain what those initials stand for: Same S--t Different Day.
Many of us have even proclaimed it. But Tuesday at 8:02 a.m., it came from Lance Armstrong via his Twitter feed.
It's an apparent reference to a report that French prosecutors are investigating syringes found in medical wast containers during the 2009 Tour de France. An article on www.postchronicle.com states that some reports indicate that several suspicious syringes were found.
Drug probes are indeed nothing new to the Tour. At this point there is nothing to suggest that Armstrong would be at the center of the French investigation.
Here's the statement from Armstrong's 2009 team: "The Astana Cycling Team has nothing to hide."
I doubt Armstrong is nervous.
