Re: USADA strips Lance Armstrong of all TdF titles; banned for life

Former employee says Lance Armstrong made his life 'very, very unpleasant' - ESPN

I hope all these people he tried to run end up suing his ass so he ends up broke and penniless. It would serve this self righteous douche bag some good. **** Lance.


Then you have idiots like this guy who's been defending Lance Armstrong for the better part of a decade.

Lance Armstrong's history of lying - ESPN

I find it laughable the guy acts so butthurt, when he's been denying reality for quite some time now.

I also found this article linked on Reddit:

Long read

The writer does admit his own fault in the situation, but it seems people are forgetting the most important fallout of this- Forget the doping. What about the lives he actively sought to destroy to protect his image?

Re: USADA strips Lance Armstrong of all TdF titles; banned for life

Well they have to prove damages...which will be hard. Since they spent years and years trying to convince people first about all the value the sponsorship gave them. So there's tons of evidence counter to damage. I think this is a extremely complicated case. It isn't as simple as "he cheated"

Exactly...they were not defrauded of anything. Fraud would be signing the endorsement deal, retiring secretly and having some mook pretend to be you in the race.

Lance got caught with his pants off. As he is facing many more lawsuits and feds may be after him along the way still.

USPS is going to lose. They weren't defrauded. They were lied to. Fraud entails some type of damage. What damage was done to USPS by this? It's just a money grab.

Really Armstrong cheated out of seven titles. That belonged to others that did not take enhancing drugs. And not just Uncle Sam is going after him, but also tons and tons of lawsuits!
