Ethics should never be based on equivalency.

ps, Lance did more than cheat - he bullied and ruined people's lives and reputations. He basically torpedoed Greg LeMond's reputation and deal with Trek.

Your continued attempt to rationalize his actions is ____________. I'll let others fill in the blanks, because I can't say what I would like to.
Rubbish, in sport ethics are based on all kinds of rules writen and unwriten and in cycling drug use was always considered part of the sport, much like fighting is part of hockey.
