He has an unbelievable work ethic, he’s blessed with some amazing genes that gives him great lung capacity, and is surrounded by a stunning team of great riders and those behind the scenes that help find every little advantage they can." Please tell me you don't really believe that. “Why is he so much more dominant than the rest?

Why is he so much more dominant than the rest? He has an unbelievable work ethic, he's blessed with some amazing genes that gives him great lung capacity, and is surrounded by a stunning team of great riders and those behind the scenes that help find every little advantage they can. (ie. little changes to the bike to make it more dynamic). Everyone craps on him because no one thought it was possible someone could be so dominant at the Tour de France - well where are these people in regards to Usain Bolt? Why shouldn't he be under the same microscope? Lance Armstrong has NEVER once tested positive for performance enhancing drugs.

The question of his doping is therefore somewhat irrelevant for determining his greatness as a sportsman unless he was taking better sh*t than the other guys. It obviously does reflect on his character, however. He’s like Barry Bonds in that he was consistently better than everyone else when everyone else was cheating.

I was just saying the other day that I think he's the most overrated cheater - on and off his bike - that I can think of. That he is considered a "national treasure" is completely ridiculous to me. Like baseball throughout the 90's into this decade, it is so obvious to everyone that he is far from above board. How else could he beat all of the other elite athletes in his sport for so long - most of whom have been caught by now! Disgusting. :evil: Truly one of my favorite subjects.
