LANCE ARMSTRONG a true sports hero!

moe29 · 21st July 2003, 05:06 PM

What an amazing athelete! Lance takes back command of the
Tour de France today after falling near the end of the stage. And
just days a go the European sports pundits were writing him off.
Don't mess with TEXAS!

In a time when sports gives all it's attention and headlines to
your various multi-million dollar rouges - it's nice to see Lance
doing so well.

Hi,

He's a formidable athlete and a good sport to boot.

I watch the last hour this afternoon and was truly impressed with his performance.

The chevalresque waiting of Jan Ulrich for Lamce to recover from his fall and the subsequent adrenaline rush may well cost Ulrich the Tour...

Exciting and exhilerating sports event,

something else to mention, Jan Ulrich was a good sport in holding
up and allowing lance to catch up with the group, after the fall.

"I'm really grateful for Jan for remembering my gesture of two years ago. What goes around, comes around," said Armstrong, who waited for Ullrich when he crashed coming down a steep descent in the 2001 Tour. "The tables were turned two years ago when I did what I did. I appreciated he did what he did."

should be interesting to watch the time trial on Saturday!

Us guys who only have one, either. We are still feisty. Especially us from Texas.

It was simply returning a favor that was extended to him earlier in the tour. The best will win in the end.

Hey Jocko,

I didn't know he overcame cancer. What an inspiration story.

He must be American :P

If he wins next year he will become the only man to ever win 6 tour's. It would also be in succession. He's a freak, not an athlete.
