Armstrong coming back??

[SheFly]

I hate to be the lone dissenter here, but I really wish it weren't true. This year's Tour was SO FUN to watch, with no clear winner until the very final week. And what might Lance's signing with Astana mean to Levi and Alberto? Levi definitely has the talent to win this on his own, and may now have to play a support role to Lance, again?

I actually may be less inclined to watch next year if he does make a comeback.

I agree with you Shefly.

What does Lance have to prove? Seriously...now that he's not cavorting about with young Hollywood starlets, I bet he has nothing better to do.

I would love to watch Armstrong ride, but I would rather see Floyd come back and prove himself. I will watch either way and be excited to do so. Last year was my first year to watch so I have no favorites and just watch for the excitement and thrill of watching these guys do something I find so incredible.

Oh I wouldn't worry about him winning shefly. At 37 almost 38 by next July I really don't think he can. But it will be fun to watch him try!

The Olympic female marathon gold medalist is 38. I wouldn't discount him. But, we'll see. I have mixed emotions about it. I would hate for him to come back and not give a fabulous race. I totally admire Lance and would hate to see him give a poor showing.

It would be cool for me to watch him now that I've started cycling and am trying to figure out the pro stuff. Part of me thinks he's had his glory and part of me would love to see him out there again. Whatever he decides and whatever happens, I think he's pretty incredible and inspirational.

I'm with Susan. His dominance is definitely not a given.

Liza- He is celebrity gossip! I got real tired of focusing on which young starlet he was running around with. He gave some interview recently that said something like "I am single and having fun, blah blah". Unfortunately while he is cavorting with this starlets his kids here in Austin are bombarded with who he was photoed on town with in our local paper. Heck maybe he and his wife shelter them from it or the kids don't care. I don't know.

He gives the interview to Fox not a credible Cycling Publication:

Confirmed in an interview with Vanity Fair:

Vanity Fair? Really?

I would not be so sure - he may surprise everyone with a comeback and win as well...

Actually, I very much have no interest in watching him. The total domination of the tour got so boring. I just want a Tour of Georgia so our April plans for my husband's birthday aren't ruined. He alone can't save the ToG but it could help lure sponsors, who knows? Otherwise living in Austin I was over the Armstrong hysteria before he retired!

I am a HUGE Levi fan. I hate that he has been playing second to Contador. Levi has been rocking the Vuelta.
