Just watched both parts to lance and Oprah interview and It's took me until now as I don't really like watching things like this because for all his wrongs the people that accused him and broke their silence on him where users themselves and it was done under an ugly fashion.
I don't feel sorry for Lance at all but I am deflated that he got caught in such a way. I wonder how many people on the tour use it or even back in the days when lance was heavily involved with cycling and all seem to throw the book at him.
Seeing this hasn't been easy to watch and as much as I want to root for lance and say he looks sorry I just don't feel he does look sorry, his answers just seem so brash and he keeps saying humble like hes now a humble person and we should notice this.
For me still a legend and I think he would have been a winner without the drugs if they was all on a level playing field but I wish I hadn't seen this interview now because it's totally put me off him.
I hope he can restore faith in people again and I hope it's done without the bike and putting the time in where it's needed. People have been sued left right and center for calling him out in the past and they lost everything in some cases and only to find out down the line they was right.
Seasonal testing and off season testing needed IMO.

No sympathy for a drugs cheat like Lance. He put the sport in jeopardy, and he continued to cheat. If he was truly sorry, he would have refrained from cheating after his first tour win. He doesn't regret cheating, he regrets being caught.
Again, no sympathy for someone who made a name for himself by cheating.. who made a living for himself by deceiving others in donating to his bogus charity. He should be ashamed.0 -
