I read he was going to ask her for forgiveness. Why do people open up and confess to that bloated broad?

This is spot on. The first TdF I ever actually cared to follow was due to LeMond.

Apparently Armstrong tried multiple times to bribe people to look the other way on his drug usage. He makes Barry Bonds look like a choir boy.

Armstrong is sleaze to the tenth power, and I had the whole board disagreeing with me on that just a few months ago. I'd like to say that his conscience got the better of him, but it's obvious that this admission is just an attempt to help him save whatever image and future revenue streams he can. Ie. This was a financial decision; not a coming clean.

So, he cheated in a sport where 95% of the riders cheat. He just cheated BETTER. Kind of like the Barry Bonds of TDF. :coffee: :coffee: :coffee:

When EVERYONE is cheating, if you ain't cheatin' you ain't tryin'.

Holy shit. You just reminded me why I hated Merton Hnaks so badly in the early 90's. Only Chris Collinsworth has a longer neck than Hanks.

Nah, the only disagreement was whether someone could be considered a cheat, legally, absent actual proof or an admission. No one ever seriously doubted that Armstrong doped, just that the organization charged with testing athletes could never find anything on him so they went and busted him anyway. Just like 98% of the riders of his era, he doped.

I wonder when his book comes out. This has the appearance of a Pete Rose-esque admission.

After watching the Oprah interview with him last night, a couple of things:

* He is a lying douchebag
* His confession was likely made only to mitigate any litigation towards him
* I still don't like Oprah, but she gets results

The only silver lining I can find is that Livestrong has been a pretty solid organization from what I can tell and has raised awareness for cancer treatment. Lance would be best served trying to make this his legacy. :twocents:

Dopestrong, if anyone even thought it was possible, come out looking even worse. What a lying, horrible, insensitive human being.
