Today, I told several people that I watched Stop at Nothing: The Lance Armstrong Story. Every single person had the same response. They all said he was a fraud. It shocked me that the response was so overwhelming. Not one person said anything good about him. Usually somebody can identify with a person's story and even feel for the person but not in this case. It was like every one I mentioned the documentary to felt betrayed or let down. I thought it was strange that everyone said he was a fraud instead of calling him a cheater. It might just be me but for some reason committing fraud sounds worse than cheating. Maybe fraud is not associated with a game as cheating is in my mind.
