OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD!
LANCE IS BACK!
OOOOOOHHHHH BOY!
Well, maybe….
According to Velo News-
O.K., so this may not actually be true, but the rumors have been flying around for some time. As a sport, this is a much needed shot in the arm. As one might remember, ever since Lance’s retirement the sport has been riddled by doping scandals and mismanagement. Granted, the doping scandals only prove that it’s not the dirtiest sport- but instead the most tested (really, could you imagine if MLB, NBA or the NFL tested EVERY athlete before, after and during an event for every substance know?), but I digress from the point.
As much as I’m just bursting at the seams to spew every thought and theory I have, I’ll just wait. We still need official confirmation ya know….
