He's got three titles under his belt after combatting cancer, the dude is a champ in my books and I still root for him every year

Not jealous, just feeling a little left out because someone has yet to explain to me what the hell that is!!!

[twospirits]

Taxi Cab Confessions, he was caught on tape saying it.

Seriously, just joking with the dude. He said something to that effect and it just came out wrong. So it was captured for ever.

I agree lance is one hell of a machine even at his age.

[Raz_Kaz]

Never mind! Found the link to this statement







Oh God, RSX, thats just wrong, Gloria will kill yuo after hearing this!

Armstrong will win again, but there are some more big names this year that weren't in the Tour last year... so we'll see!

just fyi: sunday will rock, 60+ mile roadride, then watch the tour, then go to fireworks!

actually he has five. right? goin for six. Seems to me lance is not the same person he was when he started, winning changes you. I'm a little tired of all of the focus being on him when his team is the whole reason he won. there are alot of guys who could win, but they have to sacrifice the win for good ol' lance. I still think he is a great cyclist, but I think he is a bit of a sellout (retarted apearances in subaru commercials), and I hope a different American will beat him down this year.

[ac427cpe]

i'm wondering if lance will retire if he wins this year, hand the spotlight to someone else...

i mean, his name is gonna end up on a branch of trek bikes, so he doesn't have to worry about making a living. but the record is 5, he'll be the first person to win 6 TDF's if he wins this year.

[freakray]

Yep. Armstrong has five, he is currently tied for the record and is going for his sixth.
