How you all feel about Lance Armstrong & all that is going on with him?
-
I'll join in.
On the basis that he did systematically cheat, then deny that he did it and worse, tried to destroy those who accused him of so doing, I think he should in turn be destroyed and never allowed to participate in anything ever again.
I'm usually pretty tolerant of peoples foibles and weaknesses, but in my opinion, this was both cynical and pursued in the belief he was bigger than the authorities and the sport, for that he will get no forgiveness from me.
Also, I do not like people who break other peoples dreams. I am not so stupid as to think that cycling is/was "clean" but it was trying to clean up its act and I truly believed that Armstong heralded a new age of drug free, remarkable riders.
And I don't give a shit that he recovered fron cancer - I'm not sure I even believe he had it.

people have very short memories, will be interesting to see where he is in a few weeks, months, years.
not a fan of what he is accused of doing (& the way it seems he used his influence to destroy anyone that told the truth about him), but the live strong foundation (as far as i can tell) has raised awareness & funds in cancer research. i think he should be punished for what he did, but the mitigating circumstances (the live strong foundation) should also be looked at since it is a part of his over all legacy.
will be watching to see how this develops cause truth be told he should be responsible civilly as well as criminally on a lot of this stuff.

He was successful in fooling all people all of the time while he was riding.
-
nah, it seems there were alot of allegations against him for years & he always denied & went after the people that made or supported them.
-
I think it's good that he's coming out and admitting it. Put closure on the whole thing and people can move on. He's beyond the point the redemption, etc., but at least everyone can stop talking about it.
-
Yeah, he would have.
Professional sport is extremely tight at the top and athletes, if they want to be the best, will do whatever it takes to get an edge. Sports aren't drug free, they're just (more) free of banned substances.
