Lance Armstrong returns!!!

READ IT HERE!

If he does it- it will be amazing. IF he does not do it, it will be humiliating and disapointing and sad sad sad. He went out on top. If he returns only to go out not on top...well...like I said...

Lance Armstrong wins his eighth tour in 2009??? We shall see...

It begs the question- why can't people just quit when they are ahead? Interesting discussion to have...

i think he should sit it out. and it seems like a gimmick to say that its for cancer awareness. then again, he's only 36 and he doesnt have to work - what else is he going to do?

Joel, the cynical side of me also doubts whether this is for cancer awareness. I feel like more likely- Lance like many other great athletes before him grew tired of retirement and sitting it out.

But still- do you think he should sit it out because 7 is enough. Should he give it up and let someone else have the glory?

yea, i think im just buying into the hype that people should have untarnished records. if he goes for it and gets 2nd or 122nd does that really mean he didnt go out on top?

or maybe there is something to be said for too much of a good thing isnt good. and knowing when you're full.

im probably actually excited for him to try again. but he better not get in the way of levi!
