Lance Armstrong's record-setting seventh Tour de France victory, along with his
entire Tour de France legacy, may be tarnished by what could turn out to be one
of the greatest sports scandals of all time. Armstrong is being quizzed by
French police after three banned substances were found in his South France hotel
room while on vacation after winning the 2005 Tour de France.

The three substances found were toothpaste, deodorant, and soap which have been
banned by French authorities for over 75 years. Armstrong's girlfriend and
American rocker Sheryl Crow is quoted as saying, "We use them every day in
America, so we naturally thought they'd be OK throughout Europe."

Along with these three banned substances, French authorities also physically
searched Armstrong himself and found several other interesting items that they
have never seen before, including a backbone and testicles.
