dude, what has john stockton won? Phil has one major and Jerry Rice is a total jerk! I am not in favor of cockiness but if you have followed Lance since he was an amatuer the attitude should be of little surprise. The battle within is the first contest. You can't see yourself other than a being in a position of the best. I mean, why bother suiting up then?
Overall, I think Lance comes across as a very funny guy in the midst of a crazy life.
