Is it just me or does Tyler look a lot like Hugh Grant in the '90s?

It's rumored that LA made essentially two mistakes. He came back in 2009 and he didn't give Floyd Landis a minor place on his team in 2005 possibly causing FL to seek revenge. Had he stayed in retirement it's likely he'd never have been stripped some people say.

If he had never come back, there would be no reason for anyone to start digging again. The moment I thought something was up was reading that he ran the NYC Marathon in 2:59:36 and was reduced to a mess at the end. For the average person, that is definitely a respectable time, but an elite endurance athlete should easily be able to break 2:30 in the marathon with the most rudimentary of training.

Just have to say, i got to play city league soccer against Hamilton after all of this went down and he was just a joy on the pitch. I honestly knew nothing of his story at that time. Even if i did i wouldn’t have cared. He’s genuine.

If you've read any books on this and cycle yourself, you'd realise how much pressure you're under. The effort you put into training, the love of the sport, doing something you love. Yes doping is bad but they had a reason. So many other people were doing before lance and Tyler. The stress and training they go through and realise people are doping years before them, they see it has normal. If every single cyclist was doping, which 80% of them were, Tyler and lance would still be top of the pac

Armstrong tried to come clean in a big profound way since he was living so big and profoundly. He still thought he was above everyone here. Thought coming clean on a big stage publicly he still could. not. be. touched. He was wrong. This probably was not THE best way to do this. Because he still was wrestling with the whole truth. His answers here are methodical not necessarily wholesome truthful.

Piers Morgan criticising Armstrong for defending himself on basis I was doing what everyone else did. Seems quite similar to Morgan's own defence when tapping into voicemails of dead children

Suing a newspaper for telling the truth..,. he should have laughed it off and called it bs.... but to sue it and get money off it? nah that's unforgivable

Being an athlete always has a lot to do with money, connections, being a risk taker and having a mental fortitude

:) It's "motor-man". Floyd Landis first talked about it...EPO became detectabl in 2001, so they could no longer use it. Instead, they would do blood transfusions. But how do you deliver blood bags to the team bus in the middle of the TdF, w/ reporters swarming around? Answer: Lance paid his French gardner to follow the race on a touring motorcycle w/ refridgerated/insulated saddlebags full of blood, and deliver when needed. Tyler also told the story in his EXCELLENT book!

what does it say "News Room" and have parts of the News Room graphics? plus kind of hypercritical for Piers to call anyone a bully

That's because Tyler never won the TDF. He lied about his Olympic win and his TT record after he was caught. And Dauphine isn't the TDF. Nowhere near that level. He never won any grand tour either that I'm aware of. Tyler tried to lie about his blood test showing blood not belonging to him. He said it was from some birth defect. So stop with the bullshit. Lance won so he's the scapegoat.

Fake News Lance Armstrong is clean...GOAT

Can we take Piers' retainer out?!

"What I was doing, everybody else was doing". Well, He's right. However, that doesn't MAKE it right. Lance Armstrong did what he had to do to win. It's not something I endorse, But the fans of cycling are just about as much to blame as he is in a "win at all cost" scenario. Try as they may the French are NEVER going to clean up their beloved cycling race. Never, EVER!

You wouldn't say that it was a level playing field and yet the 7 TDF wins that they took away - they left the titles vacated because they stopped going down the list at some point to try and find a rider who was not doping. No doubt about it what they were doing was against the rules of their sport - and at times he maybe wasn't a really nice dude....but to call him out as the biggest cheat in sports history....that's a joke. I can't take Piers as any kind of serious journalist - so I guess it isn't all that surprising.

By all accounts, the amount of doping Asteriskstrong did and the degree of cover-up involved are unprecedented in any sport. This is someone who tested positive himself multiple times, got retroactive exemptions, and ratted out competitors who he felt were threats, such as Tyler Hamilton in 2004, who beat him in a stage race in the build-up to the 2000 Tour de France despite being very reluctant to take the lead.

Lance, we've heard enough from you. Stop posting comments on youtube.

people like pierce or anyone not involved should not be allowed to have their biased opinion and get back to there football and car culture

The European cycling community is anxiously awaiting the return of Contador; he was stripped of his 2010 TDF title. How is his situation any different from that of Floyd Landis. Face it, the tour and European cycling community need American winners and dollars to survive.

Maybe he sud give his money he got from Lance Armstrong. Everyone was on dope and still keep tour wins

You know - shame on Lance - but, he toady doesn't look like a druggie - Tyler certainly does.

tyler his own words......DOPING WAS THE ONLY ANSWER........HOW FAKE CAN YOU BE TYLER????

I knew lance was about to lose it all , there is no way an athlete cyclist could win the tour de France 7 times in a row . He tried to prove that he could of done it without drugs and he failed ...cheating only gets you so far....he used a PED that helped his blood get more oxygen into his system ,so he wouldn't be fatigued and would be able to push through much easier . I tried cycling and couldn't keep it up for a miniute. Imagine a full 4 day ride through a country side ...I would literally keel over

I defend piers. He is alot better then most yank journalists. Sorry..x

Americans? You are naive to say the least. Ask Indurain how he won 5 TDFs.

I can understand Tyler, but the journalist judging people as the guardian of morality??... is disgusting!

Interesting how this guy who doped with armstrong is now jumpin on the slam wagon, pathetic.

Chistophe Bassons never, ever doped and was snubbed by the peleton, his life was made miserable. Chistophe your integrity is in tact.

It would be one thing to come forward while it was happening, that would have been honorable actually. But to see your mediocre career never amount to champion status, to get caught yourself, then to profit off of snitching, there is no honor in this behavior. You sir are a rat, and I'm glad your conscience is clean, but whistleblower would be reserved for if you did this 20 years ago when it would have mattered, now this is motivated by the fact that Lance did it all better than you.

Physiological differences mean that some athletes get a far greater advantage from drugs than others. Liestrong was a second class rider who, from an accident of biology, got a far greater advantage from EPO and blood doping than his contemporaries and then found himself with the money and power to keep getting away with it. Except in the end he didn't.
