I let this one slip through the cracks.
Turns out that following the mean-spirited report in French media that Lance Armstrong might have used
performance-enhancing drugs, he signaled that me may
not be through, after all, with biking. In a prepared statement, he wrote: “While I’m absolutely enjoying my time
as a retired athlete with Sheryl and the kids, the recent smear campaign out of France has awoken my competitive side.
I’m not willing to put a percentage on the chances but I will no longer rule it out.”
Hmm. Could the Lancenator be making a comeback..or can you even call it a comeback since we haven’t passed another
Tour de France yet? Dunno. And I’m not sure how I feel about this kind of thing since it always seems a bit desperate
when major athletes leave and then say they are coming back. The somewhat recent and doomed comeback of Michael Jordan
is a case in point. Sometimes it is best to leave on a high note.
Annyway, in other Lance news here, looks like he proposed to Sheryl while on vacation in Sun Valley, Idaho. The
question is: will they get married in Las Vegas?
