I have not been a big fan of Armstrong ever since he left his wife and who stuck by him through all the really tough times and impending death... Then, she bears his child that he thought he'd never have after the worst was over by going through all the clinical stuff. Then after all that, he abandons her for Sheryl Crow... and unltra-liberal-left-wing-communist-skank...

I'm not impressed with him as a person. But, thats just me. I admit that he is the best in the world of cycling.

I'm with you, he may be the worlds best cyclist, but he's a low life bottom feeding puke of a human being.

*sigh* It's amazing how many times this myth has been put forward and debunked over the past three weeks. Armstrong met his wife post-cancer. Armstrong and his wife both state that the divorce was mutual, they remain friends, and Armstrong is devoted to his kids.

"I have not been a big fan of Armstrong ever since he left his wife and who stuck by him through all the really tough times and impending death... "

"1997
Armstrong announces he is cancer-free, and begins partnership with new team, the United States Postal Service, after being dropped by the French Cofidis team.

He also begins relationship with future wife Kristin Richard, and forms the Lance Armstrong Foundation to fight cancer."

She did?

Someone else has probably corrected your false accusation but if not I'll offer the following in rebuttal:


.... Armstrong learned he had testicular cancer on October 2, [1996]. The next day, he underwent surgery to remove the testicle..........

Also in January 1997, he launched his cancer foundation and the Ride of the Roses. At the press conference, he met Kristin Richard, an account executive for an advertising and public relations firm who had done work for the Ride of the Roses. They married in May 1998 and have three children, a son Luke (born in October 1999) and twin daughters Isabella and Grace (born in November 2001).....

Frankly, I can no longer stand him for those and other reasons.
Remember his whining about how the pending war in Iraq would affect his little cycle race in France?
Yep. What a guy.
