THE voice of world cycling, Phil Liggett, says Lance Armstrong swore to his face he didn't dope but the veteran commentator now feels like 'a fool' for staunchly defending the fallen cyclist for so long.

Lance Armstrong made a fool out of me
The above is reminiscent of my 1988 summer. The prelude to the 1988 Summer Olympics when I wondered why all the negative articles (citing Carl as aloof, arrogant, haughty etc..) and why Big sponsors were reluctant to endorse Carl Lewis the Phenom. In hindsight it must be by 'spin doctors', especially Coca Cola who KNOWS IT, the Official Olympic sponsor, who did not want to sponsor or have Carl Lewis as their man, given his positive tests in the US trials.
