Lance finally fesses up, apparently...

I think they should allow drugs in sports. I want to see the Cocaine Bobsleigh and the 1500m PCP relay. 

Well he sure had me fooled. I had been believing him.

Now he'll never say anything that will mean anything...to me.

+1 for the PCP relay!

A confession could land him in prison. I'm real curious about what made him decide to spill the beans, and how he plans to fight the charges he's open to now. Makes no sense.

I say 'good for him' for having the ball to come clean.

Possibly the funniest thing I've seen from you Steve. Well played sir!

 

 
 

I guessing he just got tired of lying about it. That and doping is probably wide spread, in the sport. He can rat people out  and cut through some legal stuff or make deals with that.

Or he's just nuts. I dunno.  

We put to much idolization into sports people and Hollywood celebrities.  We should put zero in. Most of them are ****s. 

Look up.......that is who you should be praising and calling great.

 When you look horizontal we get Armstrong and Winfrey and what the world has to offer  and There you have it. 



Bapu would never dope 


He would never win a Tour de France either. But most of you guys on this forum are better people than Oprah or Lance the one testicle millionaire doper. 


Well ... I am off with my insignificant contribution to this thread

Yeah I'm also confused as to why he chose to give a world exclusive to a show with a turnover in the hundreds of millions. Perhaps they paid him in Reece's Pieces?

He probably made a deal with her to pay for his lawyers when he gets nailed in exchange for his story.

She is a billionaire after all. What's a 10 million in lawyer fees and judge payoffs to her when she's already made that much in the time it took me to type this post.

You are totally correct Zungle, ol pal.  The Livestrong Foundation is an incredible entity and, hopefully, will continue it's very beneficial work.  I hope that everyone understands the difference between both the organization, Lance's heroic battle with cancer and his now tainted record in cycling.  No matter what one might think of Lance now...Livestrong should continue to grow and fight this awful malady. 

So...  If everyone in the Tour De France really was doping, then wasn't it still a level playing field and Lance was the best?

A hero ain't nothin' but a sandwich.

One obvious concern is that the people who do not have the budget to hire Dr. Ferrari or his proteges don't have access to the proper medical information or expertise.


Over a dozen professional riders have died trying to stay level by using the same drugs without adequate supervision.


Countless amateurs have made the same mistakes and ruined their bodies potential to ever be competitive.


Many amateurs were used as guinea pigs when these drugs were tested and left with lifelong health issues. 


Many low level riders who tested hot were simply thrown out of the system. They were used by doctors to experiment with ways to administer dosages and techniques in an effort to learn how to beat the screening tests. Many of these riders didn't even know they were taking drugs. The most expensive doctors will help you beat the tests. They have great experience and have they left a lot of people on the side of the road while developing their expertise.


There is a legacy of carnage left behind by the industry that promoted drugs in competitive cycling. It's a big long scar.


The guys with the good money are the ones who take the drugs and rarely get sick or caught.










The drugs have not leveled the playing field... they have created a disparity that is wider than at any time in the history of sport.








The worst part was having witnessed it enter the amateur ranks and ruin our sport. The true gentleman and women simply drifted away and left the sport to the ruination brought on by a culture of shallowness and winning at any cost. In the 70's and 80's it was self correcting... the drugs ruined the athletes and they disappeared from the scene after a brief moment of glory. By the nineties the drugs and dosages were working real real good... and that ruined the entire sport to the profit of sports marketing empires.

Hi,
 
I thought that he was a total jerk, when his relationship with Sheryl Crow, went south ... her lyrics and work, are not dishonest, and he obviously could not even fess up to her ... and she probably wanted out!
 
The bad part of the whole thing, is that he put together a massively good thing, that some folks are going to tear down out of their own hippocritical ideas, and not handle the kids and folks that really need it. In the end, I'm not sure this is about him, so much, as it is about folks that were more interested in hurting people, than they were in fixing the issues.
 
This kill and maim society is down right pathetic ... kill and destroy ... so you get to hide your own sin ... I'm so sick of it! These bastards are ugly and then some, and the worst scum I have ever seen, and Lance was not any different than all of them!
  
And Oprah does not rock! ... she just knows where the money is! And how to go after it! How a propos considering the whole thing! So if you want to be a prostitute to money and ratings, go ahead!

I always thought Livestrong was just some website that pops up when I Google things like "what's the best way to lance a boil."
