I’m starting to have the same feelings toward Lance that I do guys like Barry Bonds. So many people did it that the playing field wasn’t that out of balance.

I was a massive cycling fan way back when and used to ride 1000s of miles per year. Over the years, soured on Lance because of how he treated people. That being said, EVERY competitor that shared a podium with Armstrong during that era was busted for doping at sometime during their career.

Many commentators have said, Barry felt he was getting left behind after the Mac/Sosa year. With cycling, you were left behind 20 years prior. I don't know if it started with the Spanish doping system of which Nadal was a beneficiary...but before there was Lance, there was Miguel Induráin.
