There's probably a better chance of Lance getting back with Cheryl than there is of him doing an IM. In otherwards, it ain't too likely.

I thought Nike is already in triathlon business? Cam Brown is sponsored by Nike, isnt he?

Lance has been pretty clear regarding his (non) future as a triathlete.

Any idea of going back to triathlon?
No. Listen, I am going to do a triathlon, and it's called Luke, Grace, Isabelle. Those are the three; that's enough. My first priority is just to be there for my children as much as I can...

Lance also said he was going to race the Tour again next year...changed his mind.

Lance said he was going to marry Sherryl...changed his mind.

Lance was married to Kik...changed his mind.

Let's not take anything he says as an absolute truth.

Did you catch this comment. Ouch!

" I get a little beer gut in the winter. You know, I'm not going to turn into a Greg LeMond. "

nike has been in triathlon for the last few years,

I think this guy Hunter Kemper has been racing in their stuff for the past few years I heard he is pretty good, also Mark Fretta (No. 1 in the world right now) and Jarrod Shoemaker are all sponsored by them as well. They have tri suits that just don't seem to be avaliable to the public, although they are pretty ugly. You should check out triathlon.org and look at their tricast, its a great way to see more races. I would definitely look at the New Plymouth race from 2005 that is a great race.

It's funny how you all want this to happen so bad. Lance had several false starts re: doing a marathon. He hasn't even made it to the starting line of New York. Try not to lie awake in bed waiting for him to come race an IM, otherwise you might loose your base.

My point was that they do not sell tri stuff, so odds are thier sponsored athletes probably put swooshes on other brands (like cyclists often do with thier bikes) but wear Nike shoes, watches hats, cycling clothes, running clothes, etc.

[reply]This is why I stopped coming to this site for months. You get a good conversation going, and some jackass has to pipe in and kill the buzz. Well, see you all next year. Thanks centermiddy for your wonderful insight.[/reply]

He's right though. Why is so much conversation focussed around someone who could give a rats ass about triathlons? If he ever races, great, if he doesn't, no big loss.

Touchy are we? It's not like this hasn't been debated endlessly before. If you want to ignore the facts and engage in your own personal fantasy, I don't know why you should let me stop you.

Just curious, are you going to wear your Team Discovery kit when you watch the New York Marathon?

I want to party with you my friend!

Seriously, whats with all the Lance envy? Its like the guy shits gold boullion or something...

I think he's going 1:59 in his marathon debut. You read it here first

Lance Armstrong is Chuck Norris.

Chuck Norris would drop kick the whole peloton

I believe you mean roundhouse kick. Chuck Norris is the undisputed master of the roundhouse.

Now that I know some of you guys look through the special needs bags for kicks, I'm gonna put some really weird stuff in mine. I can see it now. "What the heck was he going to do with a family pack of KFC chicken, a football helmet full of peanut butter, a 12 inch rubber dildo, and naked pictures of Bea Arthur?"

I have done the impossible! I have hijacked a Lance Armstrong thread!!!

NJSteve is Chuck Norris!
Only Chuck can hijack a Lance thread!!

Chuck Norris can hijack any thread.
In fact, Chuck Norris wouldn't even have to hijack a thread, as at the first sign of Chuck's approach the thread would just give it up. "take me Chuck, take me"
Now if Chuck Norris were to race an IM...
he could kick his way to a 30 min swim
he wouldn't need to get aero on the bike as the wind would be so scared it would just get out of his way
...you get the picture

To prove it isn't that big of a deal to beat cancer. Chuck Norris
smoked 15 cartons of cigarettes a day for 2 years and acquired 7
different kinds of cancer only to rid them from his body by flexing
for 30 minutes. Beat that, Lance Armstrong.

Chuck Norris was the fourth Wise Man. He brought baby Jesus the gift
of "beard". Jesus wore it proudly to his dying day. The other Wise
men, jealous of Jesus' obvious gift favoritism, used their combined
influence to have Chuck omitted from the Bible. Shortly after all
three died of roundhouse kick related deaths

Chuck Norris made Lance his stunt double for crying scenes.

Chuck Norris thought of some great facts about himself, but he hasn't submitted them here on the forum because Chuck Norris submits to nothing.

This makes no sense. Why would Chuck Norris cry?
