After more than a decade of denials, Lance Armstrongwill come clean tonight in an interview with Oprah.

After the USADA released a mountain of evidence against Armstrong last fall, it was only a matter of time before he admitted to doping.

He'll do so tonight after losing his career, his rule in the Livestrong Foundation, his titles, and his lucrative endorsement deals.
