The Armstrong Sacred Cow Abattoir

So, by this time next week we'll know, really know by how much Lance Armstrong riddled himself with drugs in order to compete.
The news that he's going on Oprah to break his silence can only have one plausible explanation: he can't be going on there to stick to his 'I didn't do it' line so he must be about to admit his doping and bring an end to his shambolic defence. 
A while back I suggested that he'd be much better off fessing up and coming clean - obviously he's taken my advice!
If reports are to be believed, he's doing this in order to reduce his lifetime ban in order for him to compete in something called a triathlon.
Its here were I got Lance completely wrong.  Here was me thinking he could confess, thank the lord jesus christ, cut an onion in half  and throw himself into raising money for his charity.
Whatever you think of Lance, and I'm not a fan, you cant deny that he's ferociously competitive and it seems that it's the lure of competition which will lead him to admitting he'd give Iggy Pop a run for his money.

It'll make fascinating viewing and the question remains: will he bring any sacred cows down with him in return for being able to compete in the vets category of the annual Michigan half distance triathlon.
I reckon there'll be a few nervous bods about.
