“Good!! It is my opinion he is a liar and a big steroid freak, I hear he is an egocentric jurk. Adios . You are a disgrace to real sport sir!!”
I respect your opinion. I’ve vacilated on sharing it because LA has been SUCH A HERO WITHOUT QUESTION.
Just like Hussein is to the Hussein Heads.
Hasn’t every one of LA’s teammates gone down hard for doping?
At any rate, I have a hard time treating an athlete like a god who can do no wrong simply because he WINS, and find it both amusing and annoying that so many assume LA is above repproach simply because he is LANCE ARMSTRONG.
Many seem to have the opinion that the baseball dopers aren’t heroes — the same ones who seem to believe Lance IS a hero BECAUSE HE IS LANCE ARMSTRONG.
Agreed. I am unwilling to treat any athlete like a god for any reason whatsoever. Because the excel at a game or other sport does not make them superior human beings.
I have to admit that I do object to the trial-by-innuendo tactics employed in this case.
However, if physical evidence (or otherwise admissible evidence under existing world cycling rules) can be brought forward to prove he doped - I say he should be punished in accordance with the established rules. Until such time as it is proven, the track record shows this to be a witch hunt, in my opinion.
