An inescapable dilema for Lance Armstrong is...

[Touch'EmAll]

It appears Lance simply cheated better than anyone else. He is getting penalized because he cheated too good. If he cheated just average like everyone else, who knows, maybe he wouldn't be in this mess. On a side note, I am a competitive Masters swimmer - just had a couple swim meets recently. I swear some of the older dudes (50 ish + age) look just too good and buff. This day in age, I wonder? Hmmm?

I think if you ask many people-- in particular women--, the lying is the offense greater than the doping. Notice that the baseball players forgiven by the public for using PEDs are the ones who admit to it and apologize. The ones who are still derided are the ones who continue to deny it even though it is obvious to most they used.

There's nothing unusual about someone 50+ looking 'too good and buff.' Too good by today's pastry-eating society, maybe, but our bodies are there waiting for us to use them.
