I can't help but have mixed emotions about this, still. If everyone is doping and the winner is doping did the winner take and advantage the others didn't have?
Armstrong clearly cheated and somehow avoided being caught for many years. His story of recovering from cancer is amazing and many of us enjoyed his heroic performances. It's too bad he is such a jerk, because he would probably have been just as respected and almost as rich had he just made it through his tours clean and maybe picked up a stage or two.
His epic breakaway win after Fabio Casartelli died was probably one of pure emotion. I can still see him hammering his way home and sitting up acknowledging his lost friend... that's the kind of memory I wanted of Lance. Not the nasty spiteful man who's mad he got caught.
as much as I lost respect for him, I have just as much dislike for the maggots that jumped on the bandwagon to exploit his celebrity status and are now suing him because their own greed led them to his side. If their contract didn't specify "sponsorship for a clean athletic performance on a drug free team", they should shut the hell up -IMHO!
Everyone needs to move past Armstrong and he needs to go away. Through this all he still believes he's a record winner. In his coming clean interview he was lying at times. There is that recent horrible story about the girlfriend I won't mention.
He is a very nasty, sick man. Personally I feel like I've figured him out. His narcissism is up there with Obama’s. Good for Tejay van Garderen for speaking out on Lance's most recent comments.
A different request. Is the TDF streaming online anywhere?
FR still needs a “Thanks” or “like” button.
