I love redemption stories. An egomaniac and bully who altered people's lives for years - looking to make things right - running for charity Get em L.A.

Still a juicer and a guy who denied it and made a big deal about being accused.

Fuck Lance Armstrong and his so-called redemption. He’s a piece of crap.

He took people down all while defending his lie. Was a hero to cancer survivors. Bullied others and cost them their livelihood all while defending his lie. Tremendous human interest story and what one would gain in life for living a lie. His interview with Oprah is fascinating - I highly recommend it for sports fans who love tragic stories.

He can take all the PEDs he wants to for this since it's not a race that matters.

This is an intriguing take and appreciate this stance (I've had the same views on MLB 'users') which is worth discussion Maybe the race that 'matters' is the race of 'life' - and he inspired millions of cancer survivors all while living his fake life - hence giving others the will to live - inspiration and hope.....................

I can't tell if you are being sarcastic with your posts or if you really do admire him. I don't see how anybody can anymore.

I don't see how anybody can anymore. perhaps he gave people 'hope' just like young little jimmy mcgoo in 5th grade with a baseball glove admiring Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire..... do we really need to demonize our heros of the past because of simple mistakes we all make in search of happiness?

On a semi- related note....
Tyson Fury is being interviewed on ESPN on a Max Kellerman Boxing Special right now...
it's terrific how Fury has stepped up to the plate and come out being so humble over the past few years....gotten back in shape
if he wanted to be a trainwreck and 'party boy' so be it - live and let live. do you.
I don't think this is an act. this has been a couple of years now where's he's been on good behavior - he says and does all the right things. many clips out there with him and his kids - seems like a loving dad. want to see him Unify the straps in the heavyweight division

I myself don't like liars and cheaters in sports who "won." I'm a reluctant Brewers fan. Ryan Braun was the MVP. Then he was caught and busted with using PEDs. During a game last year, the announcer brought up a stat which was done when Braun was juiced. Those stats should no longer matter and be taken away.

Braun is a tremendous example of the human interest stories I find so fascinating Rise. Fall. Rise. Fall. Rise. This cat could have crashed and burned after being humiliated - deservingly so. Hasn't he pretty much been a Saint for years after this ordeal and been a decent player as well - and stayed out of the media/limelight/press?

I was hoping that Johnny Manziel was going to get it together and be the great player he was expected to be.

I absolutely believe in 2nd chances and love to watch a player/athlete succeed after falling - perseverance through tragedy created by your own doings - and rising above and succeeding. I love Manziel and hope he redeems himself. Tragic story. Haters will hate. Had the world given to him. Family came from money. He squandered everything and was arrogant and over confident. Kid liked to party. Drugs and alcohol. live and learn. life lessons Hoping he's humble now - and Manziel is another redemption story to root for in the future.

I get it now for the basis of this thread and why you are cheering on Lance. We won't agree on him but glad to see we can agree on Johnny Football. I'll be surprised if the NFL takes him back.

...and shows he's an asset - see Kareem Hunt - he'll get that chance.......
