I thought it was to give you some new photos to dribble over.

progressor said:Perhaps. Why comeback?
progressor said:Did he? That's funny given he wanted it for me.LOL. Although I hope it's just temporary cool down for a day or 2, I'd hate it to be permanent

Mountain Goat said:Well, 04 and 05 were pretty easy for him, so i'd say the desire was gone plus he was 33 yrs old - prime retirement age.. and not many athletes of can stay at the top of their sport for more than 7-8 years.
As for coming back, well look who won 2008 TDF... I think he knew he could compete
Oh and maybe the whole cancer awareness thing, but I know the LA haters (and i'm not one of them) don't believe that for a second.

Dr. Maserati said:.....Cancer Awareness...
Did you not see the press conference? The one where he had Don Catlin beside him and they mentioned how often Don was going to test him and how they would show "complete transparency" by releasing his dope tests online?
That is why he took his global message to countries like Australia, USA, Spain, Italy, France....
The sad part is they must not have learned anything as he has to go back to all these countries again next year.

Dont blame him for having a go, some PERSON around here can get a little frustrating. Hope he's back soon.

franciep10 said:Good to have you back TFF, so what did you get a cool down for.

Thoughtforfood said:I wrote a response to someone who insulted my chastity that was a bit...well, it was pretty harsh. To my credit, I posted it, with the exception of 10 or so letters, in white font so that it was not visible unless it was quoted...and well, I guess an admin saw through my disguise. I thought it was pretty clever...they didn't.

Scott SoCal said:Welcome back. Did you have to wear a dunce cap and sit in the corner?
I hate it when that happens.
Thoughtforfood said:Nah, just some thumb screws and a tickle fight...
Ripper said:That's all! I might have to sound off a little
Glad to see no perm damage to the forum community.
Thoughtforfood said:Nah, they warned me before about my language. The post in question was VERY colorful...well, except that the color of the font was white for the most part. I really was surprised I got busted so quickly. It was less than an hour later that I got booted. I figured it would hold up for longer...oh well, caught up on some of that scrapbooking I had been meaning to do...
craig1985 said:CBF starting a new thread, just wondering how good do people think how good a CLEAN Lance Armstrong would be? Would he still be a good cyclist or just a talentless hack like the rest of us?
craig1985 said:I understand that Armstrong started to work with Ferrari in 1994, so one can assume that in his first 18 months as a pro (since he turned professional after the Barcelona Olympics and came dead last at San Sebastian), were clean? Mind you after coming dead last, he won a stage at the (now defunct) Tour of Galica and came second at the Zurich one day race. And then in his first full year he won a stage at the Tour and the Worlds. So maybe I don't know what to think.
