Lance part 2 - he's a bigger psycho than I gave him credit for.

I decided to not watch this two part series in the end. I don't know if I can stand watching him.

I was listening to Phil Liggett this morning and he confirms Lance is not apologetic and said it was the done thing at the time and in the same circumstances he would do it again

He's seemingly justified his actions and is happy enough with them
It's probably worth watching but I can't bring myself to do so

Just watched “ don’t *!*!*!*! with cats” bloke was a genius but a nutcase.
Unbelievable, I recommend people watch it but it has its hard to watch parts if your an animal lover.
I got angry and a bit squirmish in some parts.

Finished watching Tiger King, you just have to really. Hmmm, strange stuff.

Almost finished Better Call Saul now.

I guess there are 2 aspects to the Lance thing.

I actually agree with him in regards to not needing to be apologetic about winnings medals whilst on drugs. Almost everyone in cycling was doing the same thing back then and it is fairly ridiculous that Lance has been singled out for this.

But the 2nd side to Lance is huge and that is the sheer amount of money and fame he made from the cancer side of things and the public perception of it all. He swindled millions from people who looked to him as a role model and that side is simply unforgivable and he should be bloody apologetic for that.

Just because everyone (I doubt everyone), was doing it, doesn't mean it is right, and I for one thinks he should apologise.

As for being singled out, well he won how many Tour de Frances, whilst cheating?

I read "The Secret Race" by Tyler Hamilton a few years back. Really interesting book and while it didn't totally change my opinion regarding PED's it certainly opened my eyes to a different perspective on it. If I'm totally honest if my position was reversed with Tyler I can't honestly say what I would've done - and that's an uncomfortable reality to admit.

Martin Vinnicombe tried to justify his steroids use using the same "everyone was doing it" excuse.
The problem for Armstrong is that he bullied people to maintain his story that he wasn't cheating.
He crushed a lot of people along the way

In the doco they only briefly touched on the possibility that Lance set the dogs onto Hamilton after he dared beat him in a race. You would think that if everybody is doping then it's all fair in a twisted sort of way and the best (drugged up) man wins. Sort of like honour among thieves. Lance apparently didn't see it like that and nothing could stand in his way.

Re: What are you watching at the moment

I agree it’s almost corny, but the writing and story line is so good I overlook the acting in parts.

We're deep into season 1 of Killing Eve and really enjoying it. Incredibly well written.

I don't mind the dark comedic corniness at times, it juxtaposes nicely with the violence.
