"20+ year career. 500 drug controls worldwide, in and out of competition. Never a failed test. I rest my case."

That's what cycling legend Lance Armstrong had to say in a tweet late Thursday, just days before 60 Minutes airs a bombshell interview with Tyler Hamilton, a former cycling peer who said he witnessed Armstrong inject himself with a banned substance called EPO on many occasions.

"I saw it in his refrigerator, I saw him inject it more than one time,” Hamilton, an Olympic gold medalist in 2004, tells CBS.

Armstrong also tweeted a link to a website called Facts4Lance.com.

On it, Armstrong's attorney Mark Fabiani rips his client's accuser in a statement on the site, saying "Tyler Hamilton is a confessed liar in search of a book deal – and he managed to dupe 60 Minutes, the CBS Evening News, and new anchor Scott Pelley.

"Most people, though, will see this for exactly what it is: More washed-up cyclists talking trash for cash."

Armstrong, 39, won the Tour de France race seven straight years from 1999-2005. The cancer survivor ignited a pop culture phenomenon with the yellow Livestrong bracelets that benefited his charity.

I kind of believe him. That's an awful lot of drug tests to pass.

Numerous admitted dopers passed drug tests during their careers (Marion Jones, Carl lewis, Tim Montgomery, Barry Bonds, etc etc etc) Drug testing is not infallible, and numerous methods are used to beat the system.

I'm sure that Lance would have tested positive in all testing (except for France) if there is a way to beat the testing then no one is talking about it. sore losers make accusations to make themselves look better. Doesn't work.

Liar. Armstrong was busted in France with drugs and syringes.
Failed three tests at least.
