It's so wrong, I know, but when I hear that Lance Armstrong is doing anything anymore I can't help but think:

Part of why he may be coming back is to prove he is clean and can win that way.

Cycling is almost impossible anymore to cheat and not get caught, he'll go down as the stupidest athlete of all-time if he'd get busted.

I agree. I know many people who think Lance cheated and got away with it. At the same time, many of the top riders have been caught recently.

If Lance is as clean as he maintains he has much to gain by returning and riding well.

If he returns and gets caught cheating, he has completely ruined his legacy.

What the f*** is the problem with great athletes wanting to come back? Armstrong. Reggie White. Brett Favre. Michael Jordan. Joe Montana.

NOTHING GOOD EVER COMES FROM IT. GO OUT ON TOP.

They all have one thing in common - a huge ego. They all think they can come back and be just as successful.
