In a calculated move that got his name back in the news, disgraced ex-cyclist Lance Armstrong Tweeted a photo of himself laying on a couch beneath his seven framed maillots jaune.
Back in Austin and just layin’ around… mob.li/_r4zAz

It is a massive flip of the middle finger to those who never believed and also to the millions who have lost faith. How many people can manage to troll by laying on a couch?
I wonder what he made of the photos that started popping up within minutes of posting his photo to Mobli, the photo-based social network in which Armstrong is an investor.
Here are just a few examples:

Nice play on words

I go with mot of them. The one ball thing, get rid of it. Disgusting, wrong, horrid, simply does not deserve a place in satire. Cancer itself is not funny, and to combine it with macho hostile humor is even more horrible.
Issue a retraction and apology.
‘Lazy Lance…..’? That’s a bit of a stretch.
‘Lazy Lance’ That’s just making a silly conjecture.
