Yeah, he used performance enhancing drugs to peddle a bike faster and make millions of dollars. He should feel like shit!

Read the link on the last page before you comment (and that doesn't even contain all of it). You really don't have a clue what went on.

He flat out destroyed peoples careers, and in some cases nearly their lives (driving one person to near suicide). That's not to mention the tens of millions he took from people in the courts for slander.

 

[Korey]

for some strange reason I'm more outraged that OWN is airing the entire interview live for free on the internet, yet nobody there thought it would be smart to sell online ad space

I'm sure it was a conscious decision. It should be applauded.

Seriously, this will be such a moot point before our lifetimes are over.

Have you even followed this story?

And here's another person who doesn't know the whole story yet feels superior to the rest of the world. Would you at least attempt to educate yourself on this before posting?

 

[Dan]

Don't get me wrong, I know they're employed to do that job, but honestly I don't think we truly understand the super long term effects of it. The results can be seen though.

You're specifically talking about sports psychologists and not all psychologists though, right? In that case, sure.

NeoGAF, where people will complain about literally everything.

Yeah, sorry, I assumed people would have got what I meant in the context of the thread.

Smh.

 

[Psychotext]

Why now? Because daddy can't live without competing apparently, that's how broken he is.

Not competing is a "death sentence". His kids must feel great.

 

[BorkBork]

Now that was a scripted and rehearsed story.

 

[Cipherr]

Now that was a scripted and rehearsed story.

We need a second thread for you guys... Jesus.

 

[jett]

Lance doing his best trying to feel something, or to make it seem like he's capable of human emotions.

Totally failing at it.

 

[ComputerMKII]

There's some strange mix of (physical) attractiveness and (emotional) coldness in him.

 

[UrokeJoe]

This is getting pretty sad.

 

[bPod]

I feel bad for his children

 

[Psychotext]

Cry properly ffs. Make me believe that you at least care about your kids.

 

[jett]

What's wrong Lance, you got the flu or sumthin'

 

[ComputerMKII]

His silence is totally not rehearsed.

Darren Rovell posts on Neogaf?

 

[Korey]

When his kids are old enough to fully research all of this and know about EVERYTHING...

 

[Trigger]

This crying is awkward. I'm not sure how to feel about it.

Yeah, he used performance enhancing drugs to peddle a bike faster and make millions of dollars. He should feel like shit!

Seriously, this will be such a moot point before our lifetimes are over.

So the bullying...?

 

[Fantasmo]

If I had to guess I don't think he feels bad about it all because of his foundation and all the winning so the suing and loss of trust is not a big deal to him. He doesn't look genuinely disappointed about it.

 

[UrokeJoe]

The smell in that room must be horrendous! Fucking shit.

 

[ComputerMKII]

The wellbeing of one's children is the easy excuse for everything.

What kind of kids do you think a guy like this raises?

 

[krae_man]

Still no ads?

 

[ComputerMKII]

Man, that sounds rude. What are you implying?

 

[BruiserBear]

I always cringe when I see people judging/assessing another human being's emotions.

FYI, not every person displays emotion or cries the same.

 

[jett]

Man, that sounds rude. What are you implying?

That I doubt they'll care.

 

[Cipherr]

Children aren't solely a xerox of one of their parents. The guys a piece of shit, but I think you should steer clear of labeling his kids that way. It doesn't always turn out that way.

That I doubt they'll care.

Yea..... you need to pump the brakes bro. He's a douche, but lets not go basically calling his 3 year olds morally inept right out the gate.

 

[someday]

I'm willing to think that the emotional response about his son was real enough. Doesn't make up for anything but I'd expect even the most awful human to care about their own child. It's gotta suck to have to tell your own children that you're a fraud.

 

[i_am_ben]

You were never entitled to that money, Lance.

 

[Psychotext]

FYI, not every person displays emotion or cries the same.

No, but on the whole it's usually not that difficult to see those who are forcing emotion.

Edit - lol, have you lost everything. You're in his $30m mansion.

 

[BanGy.nz]

WTF?
Sins of the father...

 

[Cipherr]

Oprah had that :ThatAintShit: look at that $75 million number, lol.

winners

They don't. However Lance has admitted to being an individual that likes being in control and given the circumstances I honestly can't tell if he's genuinely crying and remorseful or if he's tearing up because he knows that is what is expected of him in this interview, y'know?

 

[someday]

Oprah had that :ThatAintShit: look at that $75 million number, lol.

Lol. I thought I saw the same thing.

 

[infinityBCRT]

Lance has shown real emotion at 3 parts so far:
- regret that he came back in 09 which lead to him getting caught
- talking about his kids
- losing $75 Million

 

[BorkBork]

"I don't look back"... at the wreckage I've left behind.


Actions and consequences dude.

 

[Dynamite Shikoku]

Oprah had that :ThatAintShit: look at that $75 million number, lol.

Well, the Wall Street journal would call that middle class income

 

[UrokeJoe]

I'm out.

 

[Psychotext]

So... it doesn't look like he's going to throw anyone under a bus (I doubt Oprah would let him anyway for legal reasons).

Anyone reckon the authorities are going to overturn his lifetime ban because of his newly found good behaviour?

 

[Cipherr]

Of course they won't. I think people are crazy to think they will allow him to do anything but charity and helping them with anti-doping stuff.

His competing days are over forever.

I don't think speaking to Oprah is going to do that. His only chance would be testifying under oath to WADA or USADA and giving up information on managers, doctors, and anything bigger than him. And I still don't think Tygert would sign off on him in sports. Also, USADA believes he doped during his comeback even though he's denying it here.

Not a chance.

 

[BertramCooper]

Well, he couldn't possibly become a worse human being...

 

[Psychotext]

The moral is don't get caught.

 

[ComputerMKII]

How does being diagnosed for cancer make you a better man?

 

[Psychotext]

It'll give you perspective if nothing else.

Well fuck, it's over. What a colossal waste of time.
