NEW YORK -- Lance Armstrong finally admitted on Thursday that he used performance enhancing drugs during his cycling career.
As expected, he confessed to cheating in the first part of a televised interview with Oprah Winfrey that was recorded three days earlier at his hometown of Austin, Texas.
"Yes," he replied when asked directly whether he used performance enhancing drugs.
He also said "yes" to a series of questions about whether he used specific drugs, including erythropoietin and blood doping.
The real gut punch will be the withdrawal of key sponsors and endorsment deals which will spell financial disaster for Armstrong.

All too late. He should hang himself since he fooled everyone for too long. Many idolized him only to find out he was a fraud. Can he be sued by his ex-sponsors?

Too bad for him and for the sport. As he said, in his thoughts, he wasn't cheating rather he was leveling the playing field. Which means all cyclist would have taken PEDs in one form or another.
Still, PEDs or not, finishing the Tour de France 1st for 7 times among a sea of drugged cyclist is no easy task. Good luck to him.
