If someone doesn't like an opinion they usually revert to the good old troll comment. I didn't answer the last question because I clearly stated my point of view, no point rising to a loaded question like that. You have a narrow minded view on drugs in sport, it almost sounds personal. The hate for Lance is strong and that IMO prevents you from having an adult conversation on the matter.

Armstrong will address the alleged doping scandal, years of accusations of cheating, and charges of lying about the use of performance-enhancing drugs throughout his storied cycling career. The special 90-minute episode of Oprah's Next Chapter will air Thursday, January 17, from 9 to 10:30 p.m. ET/PT on OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network. In addition, the interview will be simultaneously streamed LIVE worldwide on Oprah.com. ... he U.S. Anti-Doping Agency released an extensive report accusing the renowned cyclist of doping throughout his career.

"A truth that went overlooked in the debate over those samples is that in at least two samples, 100 percent of the protein isoforms in Armstrong’s electrophoresis gels were consistent with synthetic EPO. That means that he had taken so much EPO for long enough that his body basically shut down its own production; it didn’t even register on the test."

I take a dim view on an individual who would actively use a illness that affects millions of people around the world as part of his strategic plan to cheat his way to victory. That sets him apart from all other dopers. You have singularly failed to explain or clarify your point and clearly I am not the only person who feels that way. Maybe someone else can try to clarify your point for you. You offer nothing in the way of examples or comparisons to flesh out your theory whatever it may be. When asked what your big picture idea you refuse to answer. You don't even try to discredit any examples I give. Then you claim I cannot debate like an adult. Really, well in a debate people usually put forward their facts and figures to back up their opinion but you refuse to do that. Why is Lance being treated unfairly?? In comparison to who and please don't say 'other athletes'. What other athletes? His contemporaries Ullrich? Basso? Valverde? Virenque? who.

However to completely dismiss the possibly that he raised the profile of the sport etc, is ridiculous and /or to accuse people of defending him for stating such a view, well Im at a loss

Hark back to the Tour of California press conference with Kimmage, that is a bully of epic proportions at work, one very nasty person. He did that in public, can you imagine what he was like behind closed doors???
