Is having "LIVESTRONG" tattooed on your leg somehow dumb while all the other stuff you see in tattoos, not? Give the guy a break! Lance is a good old fashioned role model and those are rare these days.
I think lilHinault's response is also fine and right on target. Congratulations for a sensible and thoughtful response.
