LANCE ARMSTRONG COMES OUT OF RETIREMENT

WILL RIDE IN 2009 TOUR de FRANCE

Seven time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong announced today that he is ending his retirement and will begin training for the 2009 race. Armstrong admits that it's been awhile since he has been on the bike, but he hopes to capture an unprecedented eighth victory in what is considered the most elite and challenging bicycle stage race in the world.

"I was watching Brett Farve play football on Sunday and I figured if he can un-retire, why can't I. I'm getting a gut hanging around the house drinking beer and eating chips, so the training will be good exercise."

It is still unknown which team Armstrong will join.

what's wrong with this picture?

And the Bush countdown is cool, until you think about the very strong possibility that it will lead to Mcain and the Born again VP!
