How long before he starts crying and admitting he let the USA down, and he becomes the victim?

I think i might just throw up

I love all these people who have a go at him and talk about him going to cry etc. He didnt cry when he beat cancer and went on to win the tour. Nobody said anything then but when he's down ,as it is in human beings, people have to get the boot in. Pro sports are a business run by powers that be and fall out with them and they hang you out to dry and what easier way to do this than drugs (after years of ignoring positive tests for more money in attendances etc). Same thing happen Ben Johnson, one day he was best runner in the world and the next he was screwed.

wonder why,
Westside.

This man wasn't an innocent pawn....he was the lynch pin of the whole scam, bullying other riders into taking the same stuff so the team would be stronger. The amount of juice his crew were taking the incredible hulk wouldn't have been able to keep up.

Forgive me if I don't consider him a victim

In the way that the powers that be who run the show ignore the top guys positive tests (assuming they actually test them at all) so to keep the money coming in via spectator attendances. There is no scam just the way it goes when money comes along and by the way juice is genetic in terms of response as the stuff clings to receptors and the receptors vary from individual to individual. I am willing to bet there are guys who cant come close to any on that team who take more.

Lance.... is that you?!

Totally disagree - Armstrong should always deserve credit for beating cancer but when his success was based on fraud , intimidation , pure hypocrisy (live strong !??!!!) , he deserves all the abuse that he's getting.Why do you think he chose Oprah to give an interview ? OP is totally correct - this is about damage limitation to Brand Armstrong (just like Tiger Woods returning conference but at least in his case it was mere infidelity) - The same treatment should be meted out to all sportspeople and enablers (including complicit media who trade silence for accessibility) .David Walsh and Paul Kimmage amongst others - true heroes in a cynical world.
