Enough is enough with Lance Armstrong, says cbrennansports. 'After soldiering through two and a half months of a pandemic, what did we do to deserve this?'
After soldiering through two and a half months of a pandemic, what did we do to deserve this, another TV network giving Armstrong airtime to share childhood pictures and his inner-most feelings as he retells his enduringly reprehensible story?
ESPN of course has the right to do whatever it wants with its documentaries, although its SportsCenter franchise might want to remember to add a little journalism as it promotes the next and thankfully last Armstrong installment.It’s a proven fact the guy cheated, lied, ruined lives, then lied some more. Where’s the myth?
What they ignore is that Armstrong never was just another rider, or athlete. He was far more than a sports hero. After beating testicular cancer, he transcended sports and became the world’s most famous cancer survivor. He was an international icon, bringing his too-good-to-be-true story of survival and triumph to schools and banquets and hospitals, where patients read his books for inspiration as chemo dripped into their arms.
This was a ruse for the ages, and programs such as Sunday night’s actually help to keep it going, simply by allowing him to show his face on a reputable sports network, and talk, and talk, and talk.
