I feared that.

He was an American hero at one point, now he just makes us all look like crap.

I admired him, I have to say. But I thought McGuire and Sosa were awesome too, until I found out better.

Betrayal is what it feels like. As I said above, like finding out Santa isn't real as a kid.

He betrayed his country, his teamates, and most importantly his other competitors, and the spirit of the sport itself.

A legend, shattered. Despite his confession he will live in shame forever.

Plus he confessed on Oprah. It's all okay now. Oprah Christ can forgive him and she'll get a boost in tv ratings.

Is it Fat Oprah or Skinny Oprah?

Is it an even or an odd week?

Wasn't she always a pig?

I ain't see it but...
Did the interview include a moment of silence for twinkies, then you know if you got Miss Piggy, or Puke-alot.

What is an Oprah, is that like an Orca?

I would like to see him apologize to the teammates he bullied and called liars.

In particular:
Many of his former teammates and friends, including Tyler Hamilton and Floyd Landis.
The wife of one of his teammates, Betsy Andreu.
Greg LeMond

There is a difference between a confession and an apology.

Agreed....a simple confession goes nowhere near far enough in my opinion.

If Lance Armstrong has been doping and winning bike races all this time, I wanna know where he was getting it. My dope just makes me sleepy and gives me cravings for junk food.

Seems he did the bare minimum.

Betsy Andreu is not impressed for one.

Just seen some of the cheating bastards interview, and what and absolute cheating bastard he is.

May he rot in hell.

For his ego, even the sky does not seem to be the limit in size. What a psychologically damaged person. And still, even now, he seeks total control and total manipulation of the environment he moves in and addresses here.

That was no confession due to regret. It was an attempt to continue the manipulation, and re-take the control.

I think he really has problems with his personality. He should seek therapy. Saying that not as an offence, but as a former psychologist. To me, his behavior and the impression he delivered, made some warning lamps going on.

To quote a saying I've learned from my American friends....'He's done, stick a fork in him'.

Why bother? Lot's of people lie, cheat and steal then write books about it and go on TV. To me it's not worth the time or trouble. I'll just continue to ignore him.

Ignore Who?
