Introducing the world to watts and getting the best individual aerodynamic position, do you think it changed pro cycling and how they train?
Were you the only one doping?
Do you think your win at all cost is part of the reason you were so dominant and why people in any endeavor who raised the bar to never seen level have that same drive, like Tiger Woods etc?
How much did you make cycling and how much did you make for your sponsors?
Why do you think viewership of the TDF was highest during your Wins and has steadily waned since?
Finally Lance, for those so Bhurt about you cheating, would you suggest they be their own Hero and stop using athletes because then you would have to scrutinize every athlete and never vote for any politician OR would you remind them it's just entertainment and you were the most entertaining?
How about "was it necessary to completely screw over people who were telling the truth about you and committing perjury while doing so?" and "why'd you screw over your first wife so badly?"

You want to worship this vile guy, fine, but he's never been honest about anything so I don't see how that qualifies him to be a commentator.


This isn't a matter of heroes, if I'm listening to an analyst it's because the person has an interesting perspective on the issue. All LA brings to that as opposed to any number of former pros is the best ability to cheat.
