Lance Armstrong - commentary by Dan Wetsel

25. I made a comment about this the other day -

It's here - http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=2205510

But if you don't want to click here's the rant -

I could care less if these guys juice.

Not saying it's right, but it has been going on since the first rock throwing games.

As someone in professional sports said, If you're not cheating, you're not winning.

And guess what? It's really not about "how you played the game". It's about whether you win or lose. That whole meme of "how you played the game" was probably made up by the guy who came in second.

Pro athletes juice/drug/enhance/cheat and if you think differently, Michael Jackson didn't have plastic surgery, Lindsay Lohan doesn't do coke, and Elvis is still alive somewhere. Plus I've got some really great land to sell you in Florida and a bridge in Brooklyn.

And the next thing I hear will be: Well, what about the children?

What about them? Tell them the truth. If you want to be a pro athlete you need to be talented, you need to train hard and you're going to have to take drugs. And if you don't, be an athlete for fun. Don't go pro.
