Quote of the Week: Lanced

Section:
THE SPORTING LIFE

Musician Willie Nelson makes a mockery of Lance Armstrong

 

Submitted by reader Peter Burrell, our first quote of the week comes from the American country music singer-songwriter Willie Nelson:

 

Disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong
Disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong

“I think it is just terrible and disgusting how everyone has treated Lance Armstrong, especially after what he achieved, winning seven Tour de France races while on drugs. When I was on drugs, I couldn’t even find my bike”.

 

“Shotgun Willie” is bang on the nail. Lance Armstrong – who won a dismissal of a lawsuit by buyers of FRS Co.’s energy drinks this week – has been bashed for long enough. It’s time we cycled on and forgot him.
