Lance Armstrong Was an Even Bigger Douchebag Than We All Thought

Only the gullible or willfully naive believed that act.

While I was not aware of this specific incident, it was well founded that he was not exactly a great teammate.

Everything is bigger in Texas, even the a$$holes.

Clearly you haven't been paying attention for the past decade or so. Have you ever seen the kind of things Floyd says?

Same Contador who blamed his failed drug test on tainted Spanish meat, and nearly bankrupted every butcher in Spain. Way to look out for your homeland, alberto.

The biggest tactical mistake that Lance ever made was not allowing Landis to get back on his team. After that happened, Landis had nothing to lose by blowing the lid off the whole thing.

Had Lance done that, I'm not convinced that he would have ever been found out.

I'm glad he was because he's a serious douche canoe. To this day he hasn't apologize to Frankie and Betsy or LeMond. Such a c0ck.

we wanted someone to annihilate the competition. someone to grind the european field into dust.

we didn't want some aw-shucks style mister rogers, giving away freebies and easy passes to competition.

Lance was exactly who we wanted him to be.

Lance was whacko. If you ever read “the secret race” there are some interesting stories in there from his Postal teammates. One about how he binge-ate a bunch of cake at a party one night and was mad at himself for it the next day and dragged the team through this crazy hard 5 hour ride all so that he could burn off the cake. Among many other stories.

Lance was a winner - 7 TDF titles in a row. Winners will always have critics. Means nothing.

Even bigger mistake was not staying retired!!! Nothing would have ever happened, if he just stayed out of the sport after 2005 and his 7 TdF wins!!! No Floyd, no old sample testing and definitely no Tygart!!!

Armstrong was the greatest ever, and also a doper like Contador and the rest of them.

Before this all came out, Lance put out his autobiography. Anyone who read that knew two things a: yes, he was a DB and b: he was on PEDs.

It's not about the bike is one of the best autobiographies ever written. Plus I agree, americans loved the way Lance behaved. He was brash, he was the best, he was abusing drugs like all the top riders, he was and always will be a legend and the best there ever was, the best there ever will be.

No wonder everyone sees Americans as being douchebags, it's because they are!

Dude

He cheated ....

Thet means he didnt win !!!!

Get the connection ???

I love Lance Armstrong. He can go on shows and just be like "Ya, I am a huge jerk and I used to be an even bigger jerk. I don't know how my family and friends put up with me."

He has that Charlie Sheen thing going where I just can't quite turn my back on him.

Bill Burr says Lance Armstrong doesn't owe anyone any apologies.

Burr was on a roll and it's a good bit but Lance actually raised almost no money for cancer research.
