So what happens now with issues such as the SCA settlement? Can they go after him? Will they bother doing so? I read somewhere that Nike is sticking by him, for now.

Hope rides again.

Backpedalling? ghincapie ghincapie I can confirm to you I never spoke with "60 Minutes." I have no idea where they got their information.

I wonder if they're shooting a black and white commercial, with Mr Gunderson Snr asking Lance "What have you learned"?

Anyone know anything about this link? http://60unreliablesources.com It's linked from the facts4lance.com but it's 404'd. Site was registered on 18th May 2011. More to come from the Master of Disaster?

I don't get Lance's point. I'm with Chade on this one. Either Tyler's lying about all of this and therefore isn't a doper and keeps his medal. Or, Tyler's telling the truth, and forfeits his medal as he was doping all along. Lance's version is that he's a bitter doper and liar, but only...

Fort Worth-based RadioShack Corp. has donated $4.6 million to Austin-based Livestrong. Read more: RadioShack gives $4.6M to Livestrong | Dallas Business Journal Also worth noting that back in Oct, the CEO of RadioShack joined the Livestrong board. This gets murkier all the time, or is...

Dr. Don Catlin Responds to SI Article on Lance Armstrong Oustide magazine has posted a link from Catlin's Blog rebutting some of the evidence presented in the SI article. http://outside-blog.away.com/blog/2011/01/don-catlin-response-to-si-article-on-lance-armstrong.html The link to...

Sorry I don't see that happening. Lance may try to re-invent himself as an anti-hero, but Pantani represented something much more. The difference was the way they conducted themselves on and off the bike. I think that's why the tifosi look past his doping and embrace Pantani, for all his flaws...

It is a busy time for the fanboys. They need to follow their leader's advice. Lance says 'relax'.

Berzin, I agree. As an (alleged) doctor, my limitation is that I don't have any continuity of care with the patients I meet. Sometimes I get 5min with them, and never see them again. That's unfortunately the nature of anaesthesia in a tertiary public hospital. As you correctly say, the mainstay...

Still can't see his name, or LieStrong or LAF or any other permutation of his ego on the list of official donors. (As at 5pm Jan 25) Also from that quoted newspaper article: "Armstrong, the world's most recognised cyclist, said yesterday the whole world was watching the Queensland flood...

Berzin - no crap. I am a doctor. Link to my registration here, nothing to hide. The scenario I talked about has happened to me, on more than one occasion. People identify with his 'fight'. They like his quotes (probably all ghostwritten). If LA went away tomorrow the mortality from cancer...

I should clarify, from the 'awareness' perspective I don't think Lance has contributed anything over here (apart from that big yellow sign out the front of Flinders Med Centre - but that's another can of worms). I still don't know what Lance means by awareness - prevention? The people that I...

Lance seems to have legitimized the sport for a lot of middle aged men outside of Europe (I'm speaking here about my opinion from east coast Australia). Lance's attitude, accessibility (speaking English) and celebrity, made cycling more macho. We might have lagged a bit behind the trend here...
