It's funny, we had that very conversation tonight and 9/10 of us actually felt sorry for him more than anything. He's lost his way at some point, which looks like it was largely down to his weakness of being easily influenced (not that its an excuse for cheating) but if you've ever met Lou, you'd know he has always been a great guy who puts everyone else first. His character, despite the struggles with depression, has always been something that stands out to people. It's a shame and sad that this is what he'll forever be known for because he always gave a lot of his time to kids and fans in general when others couldn't be bothered with it. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to defend the cheating/fixing, there is absolutely no excuse. I'm just saying that my view of Lou 'the person' hasn't changed completely.
