I don't particularly like the bloke. Admittedly the sport of Cycling was corrupt so Lance mistakenly thought "If ya can't beat em (without too getting on the gear), then join em".
The only problem was, "two wrongs don't make a right" and that's where he failed as a supposed leader in the sport. In hindsight, he could have had a huge U.S. market at his disposal. One where he could have uncovered the widespread practice of using EPO. Instead he zigged instead of Zagged, wanting to be that winner across the line.
In saying all this, you've gotta say he's a talented man. Not for his athletic ability no, but for the way he headed and managed his successes as "A Drug Cheat" with the U.S. Postal Team over all those other Cycling Teams and individuals also on the gear.
He was like a mafia king pin and let's face it, you've got to have that conniving ability to continually and convincingly lie unashamedly as he's done which does take an exceptional form of talent in its own right.
The only problem is, he got caught.
So from the top to the bottom you go Lance. You've disgraced yourself and your country.
In saying all this, you've done sport in general a favour because drugs in sport has been rampant for way to long.
Put that gong round ya neck.
