It's not so much the cheating. It's the years of denying, lying, and smearing of anyone who accused him that I've got a problem with. He earned his penalty.
I am ok with the guy. Other people have cheated in sports and lied about things and didn't get it this bad. The guy tried to do some good things with his fame. All in all I would say his impact on the world has had more positive then negative effect for the masses.
I don't believe Livestrong contributes to cancer research. All their money goes to awareness and support for those with the disease and their families. That has been one criticism of the organization -- donors think they are supporting cancer research.
This is kind of how I feel about it. Yes, the guy cheated and lied about it. What about ARob or all the other guys that have and probably still are doping? Didn't they deny that they were on drugs? Didn't they try to discredit their accusers?
Lance at least was trying to do some good for the rest of the world with Livestrong. Maybe it isn't run to everyone's standards, but I bet it is better than 1/2 the other charitable organizations out there.
I am not a huge fan of Lance because of the way he acted in and out of the sport, but if you can be arrogant and be in sports.........

Arob football guy has never been shown to be a doper.
Lance Armstrong did more to cure a disease that is real than 99.999% of the rest of
the world. I really don't care if he cheated at a race that means nothing in the grand scheme of things. I know I would rather have cancer cured than somebody winning a bicycle race.

U mean Arod? Baseball guy got caught and is paying the price. Arob football guy has never been shown to be a doper.
But what about CyArob? He's probably on something good.
I find it funny that everyone that is going after Lance in one way or another made money off of him during the time period.
