In this excerpt from Part 1 of ESPN’s 30 for 30 “LANCE,” Lance Armstrong describes how he connected with trainer Michele Ferrari and how he followed the advice of Ferrari “to the word,” including when it came to the use of erythropoietin (EPO), a banned drug that stimulates the production of red blood cells.

@@suziederkins3310 Any other sport where your performance is not solely dependant on easily doped physical characteristics like endurance or strength will have way less doping. Cycling results are almost exclusively dependant on aerobic capacity and so the sport is inherently vulnerable to doping. Other sports that require more technical skills form their athletes like gymnastics, tennis, golf will also have their doping problems, but not to the same extent as cycling.

I grew up watching Lance Armstrong racing his Tours de France, and as a competitive young cyclist myself, it seemed clear to me that he (along with most other professional cyclists) were doing something that pushed past what mere mortals such as I could do, and I suspected that it wasn't legal/ethical. I was angry because it tarnished a truly beautiful sport. I've actually found Mr. Armstrong more interesting as a person now that he's been forced to face the truth of his past than I ever did when he was portrayed as a superhuman.

I hear what you are saying, but in Lance's case I believe he did address this in the full version of the documentary... he said he always knew what he was taking and never played the plausible deniability card, he stated that he knew it was wrong and made the choice to do every substance he took. Don't quote me, but he said something to the effect of, "I always knew what was going on; it was never, 'take this, don't ask questions'. Because I would never have been down for that."

So would Lance have been a hero and would his foundation have generated 500 mil, and would he had brought hope and other valuable consideration to cancer survivors and those afflicted with the dreaded disease----So would all this have happened if Lance did like the 3% who chose not to engage in what everyone else was doing---The answer is an obvious NO....No one would have cared about Lance Armstrong, we'd never hear from him again, and he would have faded away like a nobody but hey there woulda been, I guess those others who wlda given him props for "doing the right thing." They wouldn't be hard to find either, they would be the ones finishing last.....So 0 good comes out of him competing on bread and water, except maybe a pat on back but abundance of good comes about because he did what everyone else was doing....I really don't understand the dilemma tbh.....

People just like to believe in teddy bears and unicorns. Lance decided to look at cycling for what it was during this time and decided he would be a winner and the best at it, that same mindset made him beat the cancer in his testes, lungs and brain. You may not like it but you’re living in dreamland if you think a clean rider was going to win the TDF back then.

It's as if people are afraid that, eventually' their 'clean' heroes of the sport will be outed, too, if the athletes keep talking about it. For the rest of us - knowing full well that the entire peleton was doping, it's good to hear them all speak about it.

Lance has managed to give people (fans and haters) unprecedented life action and drama, controversial and interesting! All, in one way or another enjoyed the play. Just quick reminder: Contador and Valverde are still out there busting ... keeping up with best young men half their age ;-) In my opinion Lance has "served his time" for the wrong doing, and maybe he is returning again to give another insight into sport (his and Hincapie's WeDu talks about TDF are much more insightful than sports channel and commenter notes).

Lance likes to say "it was a bad time" as an excuse for his horrendous behavior. Let me detail just how Lance was so much worse than anyone he raced against. First and foremost, Lance Armstrong is a CRIMINAL, you can watch him commit perjury on KZfaq... he abused the legal systems of several countries... failed false claims of slander and libel... and infringement on the civil rights of Americans. Not to mention the fact that the UCI gave him special treatment. Lance Armstrong is the very definition of evil.

@@cycleoflife565 you're absolutely right becuse the tour execs knew that lance was the best thing that had happened to the tour for a while. record viewership in the u.s. and around the world, and there's certainly a chance that trek with record sales and profits may have had their finger in the pie. there's the well known fact that the officials gave lance a mulligan when they found steroids in his pee test and allowed him to get an rx for creram to heal a "saddle sore" that likely anyone else would have been tossed.

@tehanomander your naive to even consider other riders were not doping "as much" as Lance, and that its his doping alone which won him races. He was by far the best out of a Peloton full of doped up riders. If all that was required for other riders to win was to take MORE magic juice, then that is exactly what they would have done. He is a liar and a cheat, but still an incredibly talented cyclist. The best of a "bad" lot.

@sprayaho1ic 4 жыл бұрын

@tehanomander Thanks for your reply. I'm not a fan of Lance. Not sure why you thought that. My main issue is that you were implying that he might not have been even a "good" cyclist. Anyway, we are all entitled to our opinions at the end of the day and I accept we disagree on this one. In the end, neither you or I really know what was going on behind the scenes. We can assume who was and who wasn't cheating etc, but its all really educated guesswork in the end. Not too sure what your comment at the end was all about. The "heroic" part that is. anyway, hope all is well :)
