Lance Back in France

He's coming out of retirement, pulling a Brett Favre. Lance Armstrong is looking to race in 2009's Tour de France beginning in Monaco next July.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. He did get me interested in the sport after all, but I have a weakness for underdogs and I truly enjoyed watching 2008's almost dope-less race. It was nice to see different stage wins, no-names get their claim to fame and their lion. In other words, not one person dominated the entire Tour and we were kept in suspense until the near end.

However, on that note, it would be interesting to see if Lance can pull himself together and compete against all these young hopefuls.

À toute à l’heure Lance...
