- Bookworm13년 이하I can't believe it! Do you know how many people look up to him and say "Mom, someday I want to like Lance." Now people are going to say "Isn't he the guy who cheated and totally ruin kid's dreams?" SHAME ON HIM!!!

popstar13413년 이하I can't believe it, he was even in an episode of Arthur, ( My friend looked up to him ) shame apon thee, Lance, shame apon thee.... :(
cahill7413년 이하i loved watching arthur, i bet they removed the video after this happened
borntoplay13년 이하I know, that was one of my favorite episodes!- popstar13413년 이하I'm really glad Dogo trusts us enough to write things like this..THANKS DOGO FOR SHOWING US THE REAL WORLD !! :D
- cahill7413년 이하i also think the coach should be fired and banned, and they should choose more honest, truthful coaches in the future
- cahill7413년 이하i think it is better to work hard than to cheat by using steroids. even the coach knew, so it isn't entirely his fault. it may have been peer pressure, i really wonder why people do this, i mean why would you win like seven titles or gold medals and then get them taken away from you. your whole career and reputation is ruined. lance armstrong used to be many people's role role models, now i am very disappointed and ashamed :( But, at least he admitted it and came clean there are many athletes you us steroids, and i hope one day they will become clean too and became truthful, honest people who don't try to aggrandize their reputation, career, and mostly who they are, their identity
isis13년 이하I agree with Mrs. Barbeau - tufts (nice name:) ) and soccer star. It's so sad, thinking of all those people who looked at him as their role model, but what a bad role model he actually is. What type of role model 'encourages' their followers to take drugs? They're bad for you, and they're not a motivator. Like it says in the article, since when has sports been only about winning? What about sportsmanship, and just the satisfaction of having done the race?
Mrs. Barbeau-tufts13년 이하I think professional sports is uniquely based on fame and money. I was not surprised to hear Lance Armstrong's confession. It is too bad that he felt he needed to cheat to show his talent.- soccer star13년 이하wow so many people looked up to him and then they figured out he was using drugs!! that is sad
