He is what he is because some paid enough interest, and continue to do so with all of his stupid yellow bracelets and other BS. Yeah, hes a real nice guy.

I generally hate all sports "stars" and wouldn't give any the time of day if we crossed paths. That is if I even recognized them.

Anyway, I'm watching Intervention a few nights ago and it was about a world class cyclist named Beck or something like that... He was a world class cyclist and was signed on to the US Postal team... He was then invited to train at the US Olympic camp. Lance Armstrong was one of the trainers there. "Beck" Was introduced to Lance Armstrong, when they met "Beck" sarcastically says "Hey dough boy", and poked him in the stomach", obviously a joke...

Lance got so mad that he had Beck removed from the Olympic team, and lost his contract with the US postal service. Beck turned to drugs, addicted to crack and has been living on the streets ever since...

F' Lance Armstrong. There's more info to this story on google.

I met Lance Armstrong in Santa Rosa at the Russian river brewing company after the big bike race, I went up to him and told him how much I loved and respected him in the movie dodgeball

if you don't remember him in it:

his friend flipped out on me haha saying im crazy while Lance was just laughing. Personally I thought he was an incredibly nice guy.

Didn't he dump Sheryl Crow shortly after she was diagnosed with breast cancer? I guess he couldn't take not being the only cancer survivor in the relationship.
