i still want lance back.
Ok…so the same day that I write an impassioned blog about the spectacle referred to as the Tour de France, Tour leader, Michael Rasmussen, is suspended from his team and forced to leave the race in disgrace. Apparently he lied to his team about his whereabouts earlier in June when he missed two drug tests. Now, keep in mind, his team knew this and let him start the Tour. But, for some reason, the day he smokes contenders Alberto Contador, Cadel Evans, and Levi Leipheimmer in the Pyrnnes, his team decides to suspend him and send him home. What in the world is going on?!
Let’s just call the whole thing off. Seriously. Cancel these last few days. Maybe cancel the whole event for a few years until a few cyclists decide that they’ll tackle the Tour with dedication, determination, and proper respect for the sport and the event.
You know. Like Lance did.
