Tried to link specifically to the new 2 part Lance Armstrong episodes but TMDB wasn't having it. Anyway, given the average age of FoH members I suspect many of us watched Armstrong dominate and wore his bracelets. New 30 for 30 about him that I thought was pretty good. Hard to say he cheated when everyone of that era was doping but they spend a fair amount of time covering all the asshole things he did to those who crossed him.

Best line: "could be worse...I could be Floyd Landis."

The Lance documentary was really good. I agree that is it really cheating if literally everyone is doing it? It's not quite like steroid era baseball, where juiced up hulks were banging dingers off non-enhanced pitchers and taking roster spots from clean batters. What Lance was doing was some real dick shit. Suing people who claimed he doped, using his cancer as a shield to avoid criticism, etc. After listening to everyone talk about him, if everyone was clean, Lance still would have won all those races.

Well, Lee legit had problems because of that in the 60s/etc, so you do have to address it.
