Level up: 61%, 107 Points needed | | Tour de Lance Lance Armstrong is well on his way to winning his unprecedent 7th consecutive Tour de France title. Armstrong's story is one of the most incredible anyone has ever heard. His own website asserts if Hollywood scripted his story, it would be a typical melodrama. He is truly an American hero. There have been many dominant atheletes in their respective sport. Is Lance Armstrong the athelete that far and away dominated his sport better than any other athelete has done at any time?
Does he compare to the likes of Babe Ruth (baseball), Jack Nicklaus (golf), Wayne Gretzky (hockey)...the lists of "greatest ever" goes on for every sport.
The debate is on you, oh defenders of the truth.
My answer is yes. 7 consecutive titles. That is true domination.

Agreed. He is a true contendor and a remarkable man for all that he has done for the sport.
