I find it funny the sort of pictures they are using to represent Lance these days, all of them make him look like a creepy psycho.

A photo says a thousand words....

Reading Hamilton's book the overarching impression I have of Amstrong is of this ridiculous machiavellian type character. Ever suspicious and always plotting his next move. And ruthless.

Hamilton's author, Daniel Coyle, was also the LA approved author of "Lance Armstrong's War".

Coyle spent months in Spain with Armstrong and the team in preparation for the 2004 TdF. He dispelled some long standing myths and gained some insight into the man that served him well in writing Hamilton's book.

True enough. But what's so unique about Armstrong is that, unlike Barry Bonds or Roger Clemens - who the public knew were a$$holes, Armstrong was able to hoodwink a large proportion of the population into believing he was this noble person. When nothing could be further from the truth.

Scary how gullible some folks are.

He pulled it off for a long time didn't he? Scary that.
In the end his karma caught up....:)

Brings back the old saying - you can fool some people all of the time, all of the people some of the time, but never all of the people all of the time.

The cool aid drinkers fall into the first group, the general population prior to the USADA report fall into group 2 and 3

You cannot fool all the people all the time. But you can fool some of the people all of the time, and those are the ones you need to concentrate on.

The wisdom of George W. Bush (or more likely one of his political advisors).

Armstrong still has people out there defending him, still clinging to any reason to keep the faith. It would be sad if it were not so funny.

Poor Polish. I hope she's miserable, but she's probably too deluded for it to sink in just yet.

When I think about it that way, it hits me that Polish=Sally Jenkins.

David Walsh for The Sunday Times: Lance, the lies and me

Excellent piece.

It really reinforces what a sociopath Armstrong is.

I really hope Armstrong ends up where he started.

Edit: Imagine if Armstrong entered into Politics. The people of the USA should be glad that the likes of Walsh, Betsy and others never wavered in their pusuit of the truth!

Also gives some insight into how his paid thugs operate. Hopefully there will be more about this in the next few months.

It's amazing how almost the entire cycling community bowed to the arrogance and dirty tactics of the Armstrong machine, starting as early as 1999.

Too many people saw the $$$$ in the 'miracle' and wanted a piece.

Wonder has Armstrong realised it yet that no one really believed except the most blind and ***!

That was a good article.
It pretty much sums up how Armstrong goes through life...shredding people, friends, etc...and lies so easily with out a twitch.
Total arrogance.
