So, in other worlds, Armstrong is famous, so lets forgive him. If McConaughey can do it, we all should. As each one of us has something in the past that we are not very proud off or actually really ashamed, who are here to judge, right?!
No!!!
Again, it’s clear that double meter applies here again. Normaly, people would be shunt from circle of friends, work, society, maybe even needed to move to different area, of they have done what Armstrong did. But off course someone like Armstrong should deserve a second chance. So is this what we have become?
Lets sins as much as we like, because all we need to do then is come out, cry, pity ourselves, beg for forgiveness and secretly laugh how easy our life is.
Well there is one truth in the article. People’s feelings differs, one will hate him, other will forgive him.
Unfortunately, all I see is ‘nobody’ who calculated his every move, and was able to squeeze juice from everything in his life, even from this. Proof is, that although he should be outcasted, people, celebrity coming to his support.
The fact is, he was the one who accused others from taking steroids, always denied any allegation, and stayed in spotlight, hero to many.
Did ocured him that many others may copy his “style”?! Or on the other hand, parents will refuse let their kids engage in sports In order not to end up like that, without any fate for human nature.
Or is this all just the exact image of corruption in sport, corruption of our society, that sportsmen forgot what should motivate them in the first place, something that motivated people long time ago, what still motivates children, passion to achieve something, to make their country proud, to be exceptional.
Should we rethink the amount of money sportsmen are receiving , because it seems that is all what it comes to.
As the question is, how many of them would remain in their sport carrier without fat pay check?
So much for the sport passion.

Hi, I get him being banned from biking races and triatholans, but what I do not understand is why is he banned from competing in marathons? Saw a clip tonight on another site andn he would really like to run marathons. Now as a partially disabled person who will never be able to run a marathon (or even a couple of blocks) in this life, is there serious doping at these events, cause I truly do not know and would like to learn.

Armstrong robbed other cyclists from winning the Tour de France, from having their moment of fame/glory, he stole it from them. He got all the applause while he didn’t deserve it. He is a selfish, self-centered, cold, calculating, famewhore cheater.

Wow are these two dudes really really short! I mean their like jockey short….Maybe there’s a window opening here for Mr Armstrong…Jockey and than we can figure out which is doped up more him or the horse…and whose brighter the horse or Mr Meat-head….

I will try to make this point in a clear manner…In a world/society where cheating ,corruption and lying have set in and are now rampant throughout the very fabric of our world…and yet we all react to this news that Mr Armstrong was dirty in a filthy world of professional bicycle racing like “Imagine someone cheating for fame and fortune” ….Anyone who must bash this guy should have to themselves pass a polygraph test themselves..
