Lance Armstrong: Stay Retired

What is it with older atheletes today? First the Favre situation with Green Bay, and now Lance Armstrong wants to come back and win another Tour de France.
Stay retired, Lance. The only things that can happen are either bad or neutral. Even if you win another Tour, it doesn’t change your legacy. The charges of [...]
