Why Lance Armstrong Needs to be Banished from the Island of Humanity

This dude needs to detox from self-worship 





As the euphoria of one of the best Super Bowl's dies down, I would like for us to make mention, ever so briefly of disgraced doper and cyclist Lance Armstrong's most recent lapse of morality (As though he had a conscience).

Armstrong is now due in criminal court upon being accused of leaving the scene of accident and crashing into two parked cars while driving under the influence. While this is very bad, what is worse and demonstrates clearly that Armstrong, 43, who was stripped of his seven Tour de France titles for blatant and unrepentant doping, instructed his girlfriend to tell the police that she was the one driving. 

The brazen doper dude faces a fine and up to 90 days in prison if prosecuted and convicted of leaving the scene of an accident, causing an accident and driving as too much of an accelerated speed in the snowy conditions of Aspen Colorado. 


                                                          Get a grip on life bro 


It must be nice that the very rich and disgraced Lance Armstrong can still be a socialite and use his ill-gotten gain to hang out in such lofty places as Aspen. However, what is not nice or cool is that he allowed his girlfriend to take the heat for his own bad decisions. 

Yet, this is clearly a pattern for Lance Armstrong, who fell from grace in 2012 and stripped of all his celebrated Tour de France victories. He was also banned from competitive cycling for life by the US Anti-Doping Agency upon admitting he doped and perpetuated a climate of deceit and fraud throughout the sport of cycling.

What is even worse than all of the doping issues surrounding Lance Armstrong, is that he was vindictive in warding of his accusers and even attempted to have those who accused him of illegal doping prosecuted by the criminal system. 

Clearly there are issues in Armstrong's life. I do not if there is a special island that Lance can be sent to. But this dude needs to do penance for the multitude of his social transgressions and wake up from the stupor of his own self-worship.
