I'm still a fan of Lance, the badass. Here's why.

I don't know if you are hearing me correctly. I'm not at all a fan of what Lance has done. He's not getting anything.

I agree. If Lance were not an American, the world would not have gone on a witch-hunt. His biggest mistake was to settle in Austin - full of anti-American liberals. Had he settled in Wyoming, he would be next only to the Lord today.

'I am a coach. I do not condone drug use,'

Yes you do by supporting Lance

'however Lance is still tough as nails and was exciting to watch. I mean, in the end.it's only as port to provide us entertainment, right? Who really cares?'

If we don't really care then we stop watching. How do you know 100% he could have beaten riders who didn't dope without cheating.

How do you feel about lying are you ok with that as well

As for comparing you to Hitler, no a more suited comparison is Lance, that's the sort of person you are like

Lance could have admitted doping but no he has to put himself on Oprah's muppet show to try and justify himself

Cheating is cheating it's black and white you are either on one side or the other and you are the side of a doping, cheating liar.

I'm not a fan of Lance Armstrong. Here's why:

What does this have to do with toughness?

After seeing this interview, I still feel the same way.

Yeah seriously. I'm gonna quote Christian Hesch from that NY times article a few months ago on what it feels like to be running on EPO:

“Your running feels like what you imagine when you see all those Kenyan runners floating down the road,” Hesch said about competing with the aid of EPO. “And two to three weeks in your cycle, you start feeling like that yourself.”

I have trouble buying that it makes "no difference" in how it feels to race.

Never done EPO, but after running 100 mile weeks for a month, and some 20milers... I felt like I was floating down the road. You're just in good shape, your best shape, and as most runners know you hit a real efficient groove and just churn.
