Lance has taken quite a spill and chances are really good he won’t be getting up from the ground anytime soon.
It’s amazing how much wool this guy pulled over everyone’s eyes. Not sure there are any sheep left. And it’s great that his early tattlers now have major street cred.
It’s true the guy had cancer and beat it, but that’s the only thing he honestly ever beat. He’s been totally stripped of his 7 Tour de France titles and banished from the NY and Boston marathon books, too.
The guy is just a cheat, along with lots of his biker buddies.
I used to watch the Tour de France amazed at these ironmen with legs of steel able to pedal to a medal. But, now the entire world knows it was all a fake. His pedal-power was fueled by just the right amount of steroids to become superman without showing up on a blood test. This was one cagey biker.
In the PR profession we’d probably counsel Lance to lay low for a long time and then spend the rest of his life doing charity work. Oh, wait a minute…Lance already has a charity! And he didn’t do LIVESTRONG any favors by ruining his good name. And that name is being erased from the sides of bikes, helmets, jerseys and energy bars (so I just made that one up) even as I blog.
What was he thinkin’? Guess is he just wanted to be a winner and was willing to do whatever it took to get him to the medal stand. What a dope!
Lance not only gave pro cycling a black eye, but he also spoiled the sport for all the weekend warriors who strap on their helmets and ride 10 or 20 miles.
If I were Lance? I’d grow a beard, grab my passport and leave town for a long time. It’s time for Lance to ride into the sunset and never show his smug mug again.
