There are bigger things in the world to worry about than a guy with one ball making up for his lack thereof.

It's very disappointing to me. On the other hand, it's now coming out just how rampant doping was/is in the whole sport of cycling and, given that other had the same 'opportunities' with doping, what he did was still pretty incredible.

What he did for the cancer community is simply amazing and it's sad people cannot differentiate his cycling with his humanitarian work. I also don't care if he took every illegal performance enhancing drug known, winning that many races in a row is nothing short of amazing. His natural ability is just that good. I am not saying its right to use peds and it makes for a poor role model but I don't believe his use was the reason he won.

I wish it weren't true... but it is, so gotta deal. However, I do find it interesting that they cannot come up with replacement Tour De France winners since EVERYONE was doping. Which sort of begs the question - if everyone was doing the same thing, didn't Lance win on a level playing field? Just sayin'...

NO, I don't think it's right... before you come after me.

I hope that Livestrong doesn't suffer from the whole fiasco...

There is no proof.. I think he won them and there r his. He step down because it was the right thing to do, think about all the money he raised lives that money save. We as people are quick to Judge can u say u don't have bones in your closet. I wasn't there so I don't care. LiveStrong!!!

I've got a nephew with one ball who is kicking *kitten* in med school. Probably he's just trying to compensate.

Agreed... :grumble:

I think it sucks... A big dissapointment... Although I still admire him greatly. Heart kinda breaks on this one. :brokenheart:

All I can hope for is our sport gets cleaner, sooner. I love the sport. If he did cheat it's heartbreaking. I supported him throughout but it looks like I was fooled. Hopefully it ends up making the sport cleaner. It is such a beautiful sport. I respect him for beating cance and all he's done for cancer but I can't respect cheating and disrepecting a sport he was suposed to love.

Exactly! Especially if everyone ese was also using.

So true, not something to joke about!!!

Doping is not much help without endurance and talent.

I could ingest every enhancing drug available and I'd still need at least THREE testicles and a prayer to accomplish what he has.

If everyone else does it too, he won on the same grounds as his competition so it seems to me like he should keep his titles.

But, what do I know?

Kimcaliyork

It's kind of disappointing even for me as a non athlete. Heck I know what it takes just to get thru a long work out. If I were an athlete who competed against him I think I would be super mad. We don't know what goes on behind many athletes closed doors. He just got caught. So his achievements are a bit tarnished yet amazing as well. But look at all the positive things he did for the cancer community. I supported it & I'm over it. Let's not nail him to the cross because I don't think he would be alone.

If you don't believe its true then read the report and the affidavits from his closest friends. http://cyclinginvestigation.usada.org/ The tabs on here have all the evidence. We do know and he is guilty. I'm a life long cycling fan and was crushed when this came out, but it is the truth. He used EPO and blood transfusions. The only thing is that the rest of the peloton was doing it as well.

He gave me hope in my darkest hour ... I will be forever grateful for that.

He is a liar, a cheat and a criminal.

He is also a cancer survivor who leveraged his fame into a huge benefit for cancer awareness.

Good and bad in varying degrees, just like most of us. I doubt his aims with Livestrong were purely altruistic, but it doesn't matter that much.

I think it's kind of stupid that Nike can strip Lance of all his endorsements and essentially ruin the guys life, but they can endorse Vick who murdered puppies and tortured dogs.
