Blowing the Curve - and loving it (and so he should): Cordair on Armstrong

Some nasty and petty things have been said about Lance Armstrong during this year's Tour de France. From specious doping charges to having illicit hygiene products in his French hotel rooms, to getting spat upon by his opponents. (In all fairness, it seems that this happens to a lot of contestants on the Tour.) Had he been involved in the market, he may very well have stacked up to be this year's Martha Stewart now that the would-be Curella is starring in a very special episode of the Women of Cell Block H and the success haters need a new tall poppy to cut down.

Given that, it's always nice to see something nice said about the kid who blows away the curve. Admit it. You were that kid more than once, and that kid smoked you once.
