Making a mistake is one thing, lying about it repeatedly is another entirely. I'm of the opinion that he only came clean (pardon the pun) to minimize his damages.

He has a long road ahead of him, sincere or not reality is going to clean him up. I've heard mention of at least three major civil lawsuits being prepared against him.

if i saw him on the street id spit on him. he ruined peoples lives with his power when they came forward to tell the truth about the doping he was part of. all the while he kept asserting that he was not guilty and proclaiming the people telling the truth as liars. i hope they ruin his life like he has ruined others. my 2 cents.

Using roids and lying goes hand in hand. He did more to promote cycling than anybody ever. He sold a lot of products that he endorsed and was money for his sponsors. What about the rest of the field he raced against? at that level of competition were his competitors clean? I think not. No inductees in Baseballs 'Hall of Fame' this year? Why? Roids? How about Dale Murphy, or Pete Rose. The media is more corrupt than the people it demonizes.

If Lance Armstrong was a better liar, he'd be a politician, well above public scrutiny.

I'm a sheetmetal guy, I been involved in racing my entire life. The Drivers don't do Roids but the Cars do!

If the NRA needed forgiveness by the American people I'd agree with you.
