And this is exactly why I'm still a Lance Armstrong fan.
All he did as -- in all actuality -- level the playing field. He just did it better than anyone else. And those tours are still the most thrilling of them all.
Armstrong's problem wasn't the drugs. He was very simply, a jerk. His teammates would have kept their mouths shut had he just been a nicer person. In the end, cycling had to take away his jerseys out of saving face. But to think that no one else competing against him wasn't doping as well is fallacy.
Every word of that paragraph applies equally well to Barry Bonds.
