I wonder how much longer until Livestrong Park changes its name?

Regardless of who the "chairman" for Livestrong is, I think it will continue to be a positive influence for cancer survivors; why should they change the name of the park? Does the good the foundation has done offset the bad image LA brings to the table?

Nike has to distance themselves at this point. Esp. when it has been reported they were complicit in the doping cover-up. Half a mill hush money to the UCI head doesn't last forever, it would seem.
