"Lance Armstrong tops the list of athletes who should have his or her Sportsman of the Year Award revoked. Armstrong's legacy crumbled faster than his steroid-fueled thighs used to take him up France's Pyrenees Mountains"

Lancey-poo has a deep hole to dig himself out of. It is getting to a point where he has no chance for redemption - worshippers or not.

There is ALWAYS room for redemption. Redemption is a vital component of the eternal sports myth: Rise--Fall--Redemption. Reporters and editors cannot refuse the myth--they are drawn like moths to a flame.

Fitting that British Cycling gets number 5 in the anti-sportsman of the year list. That intentional fall in the team event was a sh*t stain. A revealing glimpse into the true nature of the host country.

tough times for lance. for him to see himself be ridiculed like that, becoming this global symbol of sports fraud, cheating, lying, and PED-abuse, that must suck, kind of.
he did slightly overdo it, didn't he?

He always had an overiding desire to be the "best" at something. And he'll go down in history thusly. :D

Soon on a Twitter self-description title near you.

Loss of popularity is gain of infamy. Change of image, need to make money somehow.

For all your cage fight announcements and underground poker parties.
