I didn't like the dorky bracelets, I'd rather just write out a check to the Cancer Society, and even though I lived in Europe during part of his biking glory days, I never watched the shit and didn't get into the hype.
When he was shitty to Sheryl the singer, I thought to myself "You pompous one-balled bastard, you have a lot of nerve. She stood by you, whatsamatter you that you can't stand by her?" I got the sense he used her to reflect more glory upon himself, and then when he found that her story might be compelling and suck some of the glow away from his spotlight, he shoved her to the side.
I didn't think he was 'roiding' or 'performance enhancing' though--at least not the first few times the charges started flying around. Most of those roiders get the thick neck, their hat size triples, they develop arms the size their thighs used to be, and their skin gets thick and fatty and pimply. They don't just bulk up, they hulk up....but he still looked lean. Then, after a while, you say to yourself "Why are these French guys continually crabbing about Lance? Why do they keep suggesting he is cheating?" Hell, those guys would rather eat good food and drink nice wine and enjoy a civilized work week, not run around accusing people of cheating without evidence. So, I started to think, hmmmm, maybe where there's smoke, there's fire.
Next thing ya know, Oprah is making the little loser cry!
Actually, though, that IS Bonehead in the chair...but I suppose one bonehead is interchangeable with the other--they're all a load of jerks!!!!!!
