The cycling champ's former wife says she lost herself in Armstr...

Does anyone actually feel sorry for this woman? I mean, come on! Celebrities will, and always will, give marriage a bad name. Their constant switching of "life-long" partners gives marriage a bad name. They have totally taken what the Lord meant to be a sacred thing into a circus. I am sure Kristin Armstrong knew exactly what she was doing when she said "I do". And I am sure she definately said "I will" to her hefty marriage settlement. Poor little thing just lost her identity.....give me a break! Hopefully Kristin will be able to find herself a "life-long" partner that will allow her to keep her identity. Perhaps she can find herself another self-centered, selfish, woman she can settle down with. Come on ladies....lets get back to what marriage was intended to be, not all about what is good for ourselves but actually giving ourselves to a true partnership. I commend Lance on all he has been through!

yet she is on oprah-lol -im sorry sounds like someone here is eating up the spotlight....

what is she on Oprah for? before she married LA she was an acount executive, fancy term for social & corporate leech. after LA, she was a divorcee with a honkin' bank account. another non-celebrity. and please don't play that " empowering woman" card, okay? has she actually done anything? or is she like Paris Hilton, famous because she can afford to be?

i give all props to women that has accomplished something other than a failed marriage. why doesn't Oprah have Johan Bruyneels wife on and she can speak about how she works to keep home and family together while hubby is at the races? or LA's mom on raising a champion single-handed?

You guys live life through Armstrong. I've never seen this before. She's giving her opinion on their life. mag, it's her fault the marriage is over? For us regular people, who don't see Lance as a hero. Understand he's the one who can't keep a stable relationship. Your boy has gone Hollywood. I can see Anna Benson or Paris Hilton in his future.

A: who cares? no one said it was anybodies fault. just pointed out that it might not be worth the air time when so many other wonen have done so much more and are worth the spot to showcase their accomplishments.

B: who cares? if LA marries Ricki Martin, it still wouldn't change any of the facts. great cyclist, great champion, great humanitarian, bit of a dick.

C: who cares? i don't, and you certainly don't, know what the break in the relationship was between Kristin & LA. she says it was his cycling, he says it was her right wing Christianity. all of this reported by papers and people like Oprah. they're the only 2 who know what really happened and you know what? it's their business. has nothing to do with Oprah's ratings or the needs of a celebrity starved public.

by the way, the living through Armstrong remark? we're just following your lead.

all over this forum people are talking about other facets of cycling and what not. yet every time you write, it's only about LA.

kind of makes us wonder about you, son. you got one of them there needs to live vicariously through your heroes mental things going on?

right, right, thank you very much indeed.

now on to the point of the post? who cares? what proof? can you ride a bike? you still haven't answered any of the questions put to you in any of the forums.

oh, i get it. your usual source at the 7 Eleven is out sick today, so your information pipeline is out of commission. cool. we can resume when Elanor gets back and lets you know what else she's heard at the sewing circle.
