I too am a huge sports fan, but in my 41 years of life losses don't affect me as much. I have two daughters to make up for most of my sports disappointments, but this one hurt. As great as it was seeing Lance win the tour, it was expected that he would. Floyd made the tour fresh again and another American winning was glorious. But the feeling I had following his findings has definately jaded my beliefs in sports. I still watch and enjoy them just not with the same emotion.
Thanks for the article.
