How can we miss you when you won't go away?

Another example of athletic retirement stupidity.

If you're gonna retire at the top of your game, then stay away when you go away. He's been gone, what, like a month? Two? Now he's thinking "comeback"??

Someone please explain this to me...

I'm sure it's difficult for a person who's spent most of their adult life being competitive to just wake up one morning and STOP. I know it would drive me nuts. Plus, there are those pesky French, who wait until AFTER he retires to bring up some ca-ca from 1999. Morons.

IMO - if he wants to do it, fine. Hope his luck holds. I could care less either way. But if he does do it, even if he doesn't win, I hope he beats the pants off the French. Just because I'm a bitch. :-D

I completely understand his wanting to come back just to piss the whole country off. I spent a week with their lesser cousins down the river and trust me, if I could find something big enough to piss the lot of them off, I would do it in a heartbeat. While I will be careful not to paint everyone in the province wiht the same brush, suffice it to say that I met some of the more rude and moronic examples they have to offer. If I held a bitch-slap party there, we would set a new Guiness record for non-stop bitching-slapping. The ignorance is immense!!

Now, imagine a country full of purists that think them above the bourgeois wannabees of Canada. We could all go into cardiac bitch-slapping arrest over there. Let's Go!

I'm with dtrini on this one.

And, truthfully, I don't give a rat's you-know-what what Lance Armstrong does. Who gives a crap about that when there's all the Katrina mess going on?

I agree. If he wants to keep racing, by all means RACE. It's his life, and it's what he enjoys. Is it going to affect me at all? Other than a side note on the news, not a bit. I'm all for letting people do what they want, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone in the process.

i can totally unsderstand wanting to race one more time to defend your honor.

the french don't usually rub me the wrong way, but bringing up something that allegedly happened several years ago in an attempt to tarnish armstrong's image is just....tacky.
