		<description>What an interesting interview...It sounded like he was grieving the loss of his life&#039;s work, which if true, is an incredibly shift.  He obviously felt very differently about the cycling and the cancer community.

There&#039;s real sensitivity to the hurt of the cancer community along with real desire to get back involved, and incredibly humility about what he can and can&#039;t do there.

As for cycling, it sounded like he&#039;s still in denial, as though I think he still feels like he got screwed by cycling. He thinks that if he just hadn&#039;t come back in 2008, or hadn&#039;t been such an A**H***, then this&#039;d never have happened.  

The TRC is the kicker...he clearly feels like the judgement was unfair, since everyone doped, and his hope for a TRC has to be that it&#039;d lay bare the rest of cycling&#039;s ills, vindicating his story.  There&#039;s a certain bargaining aspect, and a sign that he hasn&#039;t stopped fighting.</description>

		<description>Good gosh. I just spent the time to read the whole interview. Joe Lindsey did an awesome job and I&#039;m glad he didn&#039;t back down. This interview made Lance Armstrong seem creepier than he did after Oprah and it has nothing to do with how he was interviewed. I suppose since I&#039;ve never had a Gulfstream at my disposal, a team resting on my shoulders, or cancer I can&#039;t understand it fully, but good gosh. That whole thing hurt to read.</description>

		<description>You know what I&#039;m glad about? Now when 100MoN comes around, I don&#039;t have to give the awkward, &quot;Yeah, Lance is a cheat, but LiveSTRONG does really great things!&quot; speech. My first two years I had people donate to Team Fatty, upwards to $500, without me going to the event. Last year I punted that idea and went with WBR, which was super easy to &quot;sell&quot; to my friends. No Lance, no problem. 

I&#039;d rather meet you as a fundraising reward. When I wear my fatcyclist.com jersey people always ask, &quot;Have you ridden with him?!&quot; Someday, random stranger. Someday.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m obviously very anti-doper, and would rather never hear about Lance, Levi, etc, in any racing context again.

That said, things I think about your post:

1. I&#039;m not sure it is true yet, but if Lance really realizes that the rest of his life should focus on whatever is best for his foundation (his only chance to leave a positive legacy, I believe), not of himself or his career, it seems that that would be a huge step for him.

2. I donate via your efforts because of my faith in you, frankly. Even when my concern about Lance and LiveStrong was way high (pre-official-outing), I could fall back on my faith in your direct interactions and belief in LiveStrong. Whatever else was going on, you gave the examples I was looking for to say &#039;these are the things Livestrong does that are worth supporting&#039;/&#039;this is the impact they had on Fatty&#039;s life&#039;.

(I really want to make a joke about how I could also trust your race results... but then you had to go an win Leadville, category-wise :-))</description>

		<description>my grandfather used to say about Mussolini, &quot;at least he made the trains run on time.&quot; I have come to believe he meant life is complex with little being completely good or bad, and that the truth is rarely pure and never simple. hero worship in retrospect seems foolishly naïve but it was fun at the time. I haven&#039;t been a fan of Lance&#039;s for quite some time but he did accomplish some good. it is not for me cast stones but rather learn from the experience and remain humble. your new direction about smaller more direct charity are on target in my opinion. I always enjoy your adventures as they inspire me to pursue my own. thank you for that.</description>

		<description>Following your blog, weight, and race results for a few years I for one am very happy to see you focus more on Fatty and the communities you live in and serve.  For example, your Leadville write up this year was a masterstroke -- a view of the event and the community around it that only you could provide.

Pro Cycling is entertainment, and there are 100 (maybe 1000) journalists that cover the story.  We can see the splits and gaps anywhere.  and, there may never be better play by play commentators than Phil and Paul (I dare you to tell me you don&#039;t hear their voices in your head sometimes).  But it is here, and only here, that we can find have someone share an esoteric celebration like shaving ones legs as a goal acheivement celebration.

Keep it up Fatty!  No apology needed for knowing who you are and what drive you.</description>

		<description>I will follow wherever you go Fatty. Always thought they all doped and there was always an undercurrent that Lance was an asshole and a bully, but Livestrong added a missing piece and I was happy to contribute.</description>
