I was so pleased to read this article. Jesus Manzano, Christophe Bassons and Simeoni may be seen as martyrs to the cause of cleaner sport. They spit in the soup years ago, and deserve much credit.
This was one of the most revealing aspects of the Kimmage/Landis interview. Lance is as happy with his own success as when he can deprive others of success. I remember Lance taunting Landis on the climb up Brasstown Bald in the Tour of Georgia (maybe 2006?) when Lance's teammate won the race. Sure, they were on opposite teams that year, but Lance seems happiest when proverbially spiking the football in someone's face after a touchdown.
