Is the Lance Armstrong Doping Investigation Really Worth It?
I don’t really care that Lance Armstrong doped. Considering how common doping was, and probably still is, in professional cycling, to not dope would be to purposely place oneself in a class lower than the other pro cyclists. I’m not trying to justify it. I’m just trying to point out the reality.I don’t really care for the current investigation, either.

Tour de France Stage 3: Schleck is Out
Lance Armstrong’s overall place in the 18th position really isn’t something to fear…if you’re a fan. If you hate Lance, you’re probably laughing hysterically and hoping he drops even further back.

There’s something about Lance Armstrong. Perhaps it’s jealousy. Even after Lance first retired, he managed to stay in the limelight and continue to be a star attraction. He’s everywhere, and people love that whether or not they love him; and sometimes they love to see him everywhere simply because they love to bitch about him. There’s also the fact that he looks damn good on a bike…and pretty … Read entire article »
