Again you do not dispute the fact that it is a rare cancer- we have
already discussed the statistics, and young men rarely get cancer,
regardless of which of those rare events is the commonest- but instead
say it does not prove the claim that I explicitly said I was not
making. How weird is that?

I think your original statement was misleading.

I inferred (perhaps incorrectly) from your original post on the subject
that you're suggesting there may be a connection between Armstrong's
"rare" testicular cancer and drug use.

You are correct that testicular cancer is a rare DISEASE. But among
cancers affecting young men, it is not a rare CANCER -- in fact, it is
the most common cancer affecting young men.
