Lance Armstrong is a God

'oh you want beef? I got this great chef you can come over and have some of mine'

lmao my favorite part of that story was how bonds hired the chef and then later called gary and was like 'huh, why isn't that guy working for you anymore? what happened there?' meanwhile in the background gary could probably hear the sizzle of a stir fry someone was cooking up for barry four ft away.

That is great. That's how trolling is done.

THAT PHOTO

why are oprah and lance talking in front of a lotion table

the cream, the clear, etc

room temperate tap water for me, with a straw. oprah? the same? very good. the same for oprah, please. and, mary? *grabs assistant's wrist, twists it almost imperceptibly* no condensation on the glasses this time, okay?

*smiles, mops brow*

Can I just say

There's a reason why I resisted wearing one of those stupid yellow bracelets in the chemo room? That whole LIVESTRONG thing just rubbed me the wrong way - the way Armstrong was praised for LIVING STRONG and BEATING CANCER, just like it was another Tour de France race. The whole campaign seemed like another example of being STRONG ENOUGH to say NO to DEATH.

When none of that has anything to do with whether you succumb to a disease or not. I do know that Armstrong enjoyed a degree of health care not available to many, many other sufferers of cancer, just like he had some extra medical help in winning those bicycle races. I would feel like a schmuck right now had I held my fist in the air, little rubber band with his name on it dangling from my wrist. It's another example of holding a parade for somebody who was already living on a float.

Someone will argue that at least, in the end, he raised awareness of cancer. You know, cancer, that obscure c-list disease that only people with hazel eyes and left hands get. If anything, he raised the hopes of some that turned out to be artificial, at best.

So at long last, I can feel comfortable about saying Fuck This Guy without getting pelted with a bunch of little lemon powerbars.

monster imo

a friend read tyler hamiltons autobio and he said theres a story in there of tyler and lance training when a car cuts them off so lance takes a short cut stops in front of the car pulls the driver out and beats him up, just a real mean bastard this guy

Yeah, I got the Hamilton book for Xmas. Lance Armstrong is undeniably a cunt, but to be honest I sympathize with him in that particular incident.

THAT IS OUTRAGEOUS

"self-righteous egomaniac"? I dunno Onion, that's giving him a lot of credit, especially when "sociopath" is just one word.

Lance Armstrong is a Dog, one you do not trust

Cartoon where Lance Armstrong and Eric Clapton are both claiming to be God(s) and then Sheryl Crow is making a cute smirk like "oh brother, these two guys..." in the next panel

i wonder if he's recanted months of calling ppl pussies on twitter who questioned his original stupid newsweek article?

Okay - who is watching the Oprah interview?

i'm already bored

wow the show is really called "Oprah's Next Chapter"

the size of the own logo is hilarious

it's dull, he's smug, already used the "everybody was doing it" line. I'll just leave it in the background and shake my head occasionally.

the fact that they stretched this into 2.5 hrs of content is the biggest travesty of all

someone tell me when he flies into a roid rage

omg this is the most boring thing i've ever watched

i've turned on drumline

I hope Lance Armstrong cries and then Oprah softly licks all of his tears from his face to help her do some more time in her workout later

Well he's still lying.

He's obviously protecting people (that lied for him under oath) and denying any recent wrongdoing that is still within the statute of limitations.

He's only admitting enough to try to gain some sponsorship back and to get some of his supporters back.

His mind is so evil and calculating that he'll believe only what he wants to... It's hard to say what's going to happen to him next.

BUT...

If he really wanted to reverse the damage done to the support he could provide intel to USADA/WADA connecting his management, his financiers to the top of the UCI, all the while fixing the races, and probably the biggest kicker is how his financiers bankrolled the Amgen IPO which possibly led to a highly illegal team sponsorship for Amgen's branded EPO.

@pbump: FYI, Lance Armstong actually just tried to rationalize attempts to destroy a woman's reputation by noting that he didn't call her fat.

"If there was a truth and reconciliation commission - and I can't call for that - and I'm invited I'll be first man through the door."

ball of steel

thread title needs a change, maybe just had "in the Nietzschean sense" or something i dunno

This is the woman who is not Fat. 1000000000x better human being than Lance

RIP Lance, heaven needed a really shit reason for having seven really boring Tours in a row.

Anyway, I'm off to see what L'Equipe has to say about this, I bet it will be quite reasoned.

can we change thread title to "Lance Armstrong is a Golden God"

There was a perfectly good I hate Lance Armstrong. thread we could have used for this.

xp how about 'Lance Armstrong has a Golden Arm'?

guys, thread title is perfect

very revealing

I have expected him to start laying down plastic sheets on Oprah's set and start lecturing her about Huey Lewis

LOL otm

re: moullet's post, have long said they should just legalise everything

an oft mentioned awful idea that would ensure victors would be those most willing to risk their lives via medical experimentation, not to mention the vast majority of fans dont want to see that shit in the first place and the whole thing becomes kinda moot w/o fans

what a lot of people don't realize about PEDs is that they affect different people in widely different ways.

in the case of endurance sports, EPO can only help some people slightly, and others immensely.

this is why when LA talks about how the era when he won the tours was "an even playing field", it's 100% bullshit.

If they legalize everything, I expect to see surgically-created human-animal hybrids before 2020.

as the link says, it's not necessarily that life-threatening if done *well*

the main issue with it would be that of access, and consequent unfairness when the bigger nations won the arms-race to develop the most effective chemicals, although extremely talented individuals from poorer nations will always find sponsorship

i'd foresee a breakaway 'clean' movement, and YOU, THE PEOPLE would choose which to follow, if either

that said, extend this to other sports and i begin to feel a trifle repulsed, so perhaps these are just my dismissive thoughts about athletics being projected
