The Invincibility Of Lance Armstrong

Well, it appears that Lance Armstrong has been hit with more doping allegations. We understand that Armstrong is unpopular with the French, and that they're convinced he's blood doping. We also understand that we don't really care, because it's freaking cycling, and now that Armstrong is retired, none of us are ever going to care about cycling again.

But let's just say, hypothetically speaking, that Armstrong, definitively, was nailed for using performance enhancers. What would the reaction be? Would it be Palmeiro-esque? Or is he too much of a hero now, too friendly with Dubya? We're curious about this. We have a feeling no one would really care; it's cycling, after all. And he's from Texas.
