I actually admired LA for a long time. I liked his killer instinct and his tactical ruthlessness in the Tour. Yes, he's always been an arrogant pr**k. Yes, he's a doper but I could say that about most riders probably. But he lost me last year when he tried to undermine AC. He couldn't beat AC with his legs so he tried every little underhanded, nasty tactic he could to his own teammate! Now he's just and a-hole, pure and simple.

What one forgets is that it was easy to show a killer instinct. It was easy to have all the confidence in the world. It was easy to show tactic genius when you knew you were packed full of red cells and EPO and that you would never test positive.

What we see today with Radioshasck is how it should have been at Postal.

Come on give me a break,my keyboards toast.I've been using it as a piano.
Does anyone hate Tiger Woods because of what he does off the course,like everyone hates Lance because of his behavior off the bike(insert question mark here,mines broken)Just curious since the morality police are about.
Myself personally,I could care less as long as I'm entertained.
They don't pay my salary,aren't peeing in my pool or causing me any flak.
Besides, narcissistic multimillionaire athletes really don't care what anybody thinks of them.They expect everyone to kiss their patootie.Special treatment abounds for the chosen few.Especially by the media.
How about Mel Gibson(another question mark here)Will you still watch his movies(one here too)

Let us know when you do, cause when you couldn't care any less, then you will be making a coherent statement.(no need for a question mark, it was a statement)
