I say Lance Edward Armstrong is a "DOPE" DAD (born Lance Edward Gunderson, September 18, 1971)


Really now good people? I also say "let those who have never sinned continue and throw stones at Armstrong - I am no saint and will not do/be part of such because, in spite of what we are currently [22 OCTOBER 2012] seeing/hearing/reading in media about Armstrong's life and his reputation, we still need to acknowledge that he is a DAD (first and foremost) and a family man too! 

Being a DAD myself, its only natural to support my kind and walk in his shoes so I intentionally extracted the following from Wikipedia - because, if anything, it all tells you that he is human (I mean what makes you more human than being a parent? A DADDY of 5?).


Armstrong met Kristin Richard in June 1997. They married on May 1, 1998 and had three children: Luke David, born October 1999, and twins Isabelle Rose and Grace Elisabeth, born November 2001....... 


At Armstrong's request, his children flew in for the Tour de France podium ceremony in 2005, where Luke helped his father hoist the trophy, while his daughters (in yellow dresses) held the stuffed lion mascot and bouquet of yellow flowers...... 


In December 2008, Armstrong announced that his girlfriend, Anna Hansen, was pregnant with his child....... 


Although it was believed that Armstrong could no longer father children, after having undergone chemotherapy for testicular cancer, this child was conceived naturally. The baby boy, Maxwell Edward Armstrong, was born in 2009 in Aspen, Colorado. Armstrong announced the birth via Twitter.........


In April 2010, Armstrong, using Twitter, announced that Anna Hansen was having his fifth child. Olivia Marie Armstrong was born in October 2010.......

*Just ponder about the above extracts and try and base your next utterance on the fact that there's more to Armstrong than just doping, road racing cyclist, world champion titles etc*
