Sure. We all have a moral compass. I hope his was telling him that he is overstepping.

Just like a magnet can interfere with a magnet compass, greed and ego can interfere with a moral compass.

 

I suggest reading the Lucifer effect. It can explain how and why all the doping happened.

 

Zimbargo suggests three levels of "corruption of the soul"

 

Firstly the individual where moral choice lies. But he was auick to point out that every individual is a Dr Jeckyll and Mr Hyde. Just the right drug, context ext can divert the moral compass.

 

Secondly, those who sustain an evil context. This group is the immediate supervisors that "give permission" and create the permissive environment . ie the rotten barrel

 

Lastly, those to create the system or situation, the governance level "the rotten barrel makers".

 

Now LA was both the evil twat that did drugs and one of the ringleaders that perpetuated the permissive environment which encouraged and gave "permission" to others. WADA, UCI ext were the barrel makers. Now they are trying to fix their mistakes, their enforcer is complaining.

 

But in the end he is guilty as a user and a pusher.

It is obvious that you are not talking of the LA that used to cycle a trek

After watching the clip, I was wondering..

 

If you could pose 1 question to Lance what would that be..

 

Here's mine : "What's the most fun thing you've done in the last 12 months"??

 

Yes, he admitted guilt etc etc...

 

But this man has been so instrumental in cycling, and in building brands... Trek, Nike, Livestrong.. Wonder if he was able to have some fun the last few months.

While the other guys in his era only took vitamins, he doped like Jimmy Hendrix? If anyone believes that they are mad! Where are the others?
