@KayLow,
Why have you chosen to ignore all the references Mike made to Armstong seeing Ferrari on the quiet, as well as the story of the test dodge when forming your conclusion that Mike "saw and heard very little"? Kinda important dontchya think?
I totally disagree that the personality aspects are irrelevant, or that raising them plays into Armstrongs strategy of making the action against Armstrong appear personal. The legal or anti doping action relates to the specific crimes or anti doping violations. But as a society, we choose to forgive and give second chances to those who we believe have the potential to reform.
Many fanboys seem entrenched in the opinion that Armstrong is a nice guy, who has done a lot of good and was only doping cause everyone was doing it, so he should be forgiven. In fact, Armstrong is a very nasty guy, who has done a lot to profit massively from the livestrong brand and is an unrepentant, unrelenting liar. He has not done one thing to earn forgiveness or a second chance, and people really need to know that or he will continue to profit from their gullibility.
