Yeah, he was conciliatory without sounding truly humble/humbled. Obviously he was walking a very fine legal line. So he didn't spill the beans the way he could have. I got the feeling he is angling for something. Some kind of position or situation. He'll tell the whole story when he is immuned, protected and standing to gain. He is definitely no dummy.

Truthfully, I don't care what he did. That was some of the best bike racing/sports drama I've ever seen. He just happened to be the best doper in a field full of them.

Don't bother watching I didn't. Lance is only sorry he couldn't crush everyone who opposed him and is now facing lawsuits/penalties/possible legal issues in the 30-100 million range. He wants to try and get the public on his side that he is humbled and changed and be able to get endorsements again. Ugh.

He isn't contrite, he's not sorry. He's probably still not being 100% honest because of statute of limitations stuff.

Dude is a complete ass-bag, a liar, a cheater, and still one of the best Tour riders ever. Winning 7 times, cheating or not, is almost statistically impossible just because of the risk of crashes, illness, injury, not being able to bribe the testers, etc. I just wish he wasn't such a raging douche.

Didn't watch either, but as I understand it, there isn't one clean person running in the TDF anyway so boo. I just think it is ironic how one man lies about doping like this and we are ready to get a rope and find a tall tree when our elected representatives lie by the minute and we think nothing of it. Too much grandstanding and "look over there!" shit going on.
