Lance Armstrong will win his seventh Tour de France tomorrow and he didn't want to do it without winning a stage in this years race. He won today's time trial, an exciting stage, and tomorrow will head to Paris with Champagne in hand.
Honestly, I've seen more exciting TdF's. More attacks, more doubts, more challenges, more crashes. But this was one when Lance is not at his peak and still able to dominate. Congrats Lance!
Matt Damon is in talks to play the man in an upcoming movie.

Only because I said I wasn't interested. They pleaded with me on many occasions-- but I just have some other obligations right now. A shame for Lance, really, given that there are only a few of us with such a physique.

Are you sure you wouldn't play one of the mountains in a mountain stage Kevin?

Heard that Joe. I agree with the source, he's too buff. He's going to have to go Christian Bale for a while.

Thanks, Steve.

And Lance Armstrong, aside from winning the Tour, has time to stop and post here?? I'll bet Sheryl did it for him.

L. Armstrong is probably Larry Armstrong, or Linda Armstrong. :)
