Is Lance Armstrong a Rat, say it ain’t so

Could Lance Armstrong be a rat. Some are saying its possible. He may name names to get a reduced penalty on his ban.

A government source tells ABC News that Armstrong is now talking with authorities about paying back some of the US Postal Service money from sponsoring his team. He is also talking to authorities about confessing and naming names, giving up others involved in illegal doping. This could result in a reduction of his lifetime ban, according to the source, if Armstrong provides substantial and meaningful information.

Word of Armstrong’s admission comes after a Livestrong official said that Armstrong apologized today to the foundation’s staff ahead of his interview.

The disgraced cyclist gathered with about 100 Livestrong Foundation staffers at their Austin headquarters for a meeting that included social workers who deal directly with patients as part of the group’s mission to support cancer victims.

Armstrong’s “sincere and heartfelt apology” generated lots of tears, spokeswoman Katherine McLane said, adding that he “took responsibility” for the trouble he has caused the foundation. To read more about Lance Armstrong check out this article.
