The fact he cheated is only a minor part of the real story I think. He bullied his team mates into being complicit in his cheating, he ruined the lives of the likes of Betsy Andreu, Paul Kimmage, David Walsh, and anyone else who dared question him, and he is still tactically lying to protect his friends in the UCI. Interview showed what a sociopath he is.
Well said, and I have to agree. Doping on the Tour de France was and I think still is the norm. Lance just went a step further and prevented other riders from getting the same excellent juice he was.
