I also abused a substance to “improve” my life. Mine was alcohol, but the effect was the same. And of course there’s the denial, which most of us addicts engaged in for years before getting help and which in Armstrong’s case seems rather epic.

POS Armstrong needs to return all of the money he took from the US Postal Service in sponsorship fees or go to jail for fraud.
He had a good run. He lied. He destroyed people who pointed out his lies. He got destroyed. Karma.
Yep Lance is an addict... now he can get his titles back under the Americans with Disabilities Act.... Maybe a nice Handicapped placard for his bike.
Not guilty.
Thats she’s not,,
Praying for you, Laurie.
Him too, I guess.
He doped/cheated. So did everyone else in cycling.
He lied about it. So did everyone else in cycling.
When he got caught, he denied it. So did everyone else in cycling.
When called to task for it, he used every option available to him the harass, threaten, and smear his accusers. Okay, maybe not like everyone else in cycling, but few have ever had nearly as much to lose as Armstrong did.
It doesn’t excuse him. It doesn’t make him a “good guy”. i just don’t think he’s the dastardly villain he’s being portrayed as — just no better or worse than every other cheat in the sport, who reacted in proportion to what he stood to lose. Frankly, the best punishment is for everyone to ignore him.
When I first heard about Armstrong’s interview with Oprah, I was completely shocked. Who knew she still had an audience?
First of all, I don't think we even know yet with certainty exactly what drugs Armstrong was taking. Secondly, I'm not aware of any research showing that things like HGH and the types of testosterone-boosters that most athletes typically take are "addictive". Comparing them to excessive use of alcohol strikes me as misleading and fallacious.
I wonder if he’s ever going to bay back the US Postal Service all the money they put into sponsoring him so that they might be able to make their retirement plan payments.
The only substance I use to improve my life is caffeine. That doesn’t mean I have tried others. They didn’t work.
He left his wife after she stayed with him through his cancer. For me that said a lot about him.
My problem with Lance isn’t the PEDs, his whole sport does it. My problem is the character assassination he used to defend himself. That’s unforgivable.
Our grandson fell in love with Laurie before and at the time he started to talk.
His mom would park his high chair in front of the tv and Fox News was usually on.
At that time Laurie Dhue, was a regular on Fox.
Our grandson would watch her and smile, even if he had been crying before watching.
His first word was Mama, then Daddy, then he surprised everyone shouting ‘Lauri “DO”’, when he saw her on tv or wanted to see her.
A few months, later when he was more verbal and more demanding he would stand up in his crib and yell, “Watch Lauri DO!” until his mom would get Fox on. As soon as Luari came on he would smile, sit down, watch her and drool. His mother joked that his Dad did the same thing.
Heck with Lance, I am sick to death of him. He is one more liar that needs to go away.
Screw you, Lance. Go away. You are just another liar spoiling the country.
A black transvestite I once knew, a very funny guy, sometimes addressed people saying “Miss Thing” or “Miss Dhue”!
I know that Miss Dhue, like all talking heads, can read having to read a teleprompter for living, but when did she learn to write?
