Lance Armstrong is "crazy" to admit doping

[Steroid News]

Will Lance Armstrong confess to doping and apologize? Or apologize without confessing?

"If I were his lawyer, I'd be telling him not to do it. I think he's crazy," said Peter Keane, law professor at Golden Gate University in San Francisco, of the cyclist's decision to give the interview, which will be aired Thursday.

"He's in considerable jeopardy of some sort of criminal prosecution... for which he could go to prison," Keane said.

"I'm anticipating a major announcement," said Jordan Kobritz, chair of the State University of New York at Cortland's International Sport Management graduate program, noting that Armstrong would otherwise have no reason to talk.

"You don't have to go on Oprah to do what he's been doing in his entire athletic life, and that is deny, deny and deny that he ever engaged in illegal drugs," Kobritz said, agreeing with Keane that perjury and criminal charges are possible.

"Regardless of whether he comes out and makes a flat admission, I guarantee there will still be a majority of US citizens who will say 'I don't care what he did, he's still my hero,'" Kobritz said, citing Armstrong's cancer survival.

"Unless there's a prosecutor who wants to stake his reputation and his future political career," on putting Armstrong in the dock, "I suspect they're going to leave him alone," Kobritz added.

I'd been saying this for years now. Its no surprise really, the guy loses one of his testicles and the ability to produce as much testosterone as his competition, yet comes back and kicks everyones ass? Yea, in a fairytale that'd be nice, but some of us weren't born yesterday. Once again another guy who has made millions of dollars selling America a pack of lies. Good for him though, people are fucking dumb, and if they are stupid enough to believe it then ol' Lance deserves to be laughing all the way to the bank
