“I went and looked up the definition of cheat,” he added a moment later. “And the definition is to gain an advantage on a rival or foe. I didn’t view it that way. I viewed it as a level playing field.”
...and Lance IMHO would be correct. Blood doping was as common in professional bike racing as bicyclists. Doesn’t make it right, but the blame should fall somewhat on the agencies in control, (there is an oxymoron) of the sport.
I’m not wasting my time on what should be done. It is obvious that the sport depends on blood doping and it can be done without being found out, so either allow it, fix it, or go down with the ship.
Lance Armstrong still won against all other blood transfusion arteests so bully for him, and hopefully he can be a part of the solution.

My only real problem with him is that he lied over and over again.
