We wont be seeing Lance Armstrong and Nike together any longer nor as chairman of LIVESTRONG, the cancer non-profit organization he founded. Nike gave him the boot today and Lance stepped down from Livestrong via a Tweet. Nike is continuing to support Livestrong...Rough day for Lance.
NIKE STATEMENT ON LANCE ARMSTRONG
Due to the seemingly insurmountable evidence that Lance Armstrong participated in doping and misled Nike for more than a decade, it is with great sadness that we have terminated our contract with him. Nike does not condone the use of illegal performance enhancing drugs in any manner.
Nike plans to continue support of the Livestrong initiatives created to unite, inspire and empower people affected by cancer.
