You may not have heard this, but Lance has retired.
That statement fascinates me. Am I just coffee-deprived this morning or would you care to give a more complete explanation?
Figures. Is there one male in france with enough testerone that he can actually be called a man? Lolol
"C'mon, she's hot (extremely so for her age), talented, and richer than he is. What more could he possibly want?"
A mute button and a personality transfusion.
Yeah, I knew that he "retired" from bicycle racing, but the French press and other cycling organizations are claiming he doped up in quite a few races, including the big ones in France. Armstrong is disputing the claims, but it isn't going away any time soon, and he has said he intends to fight it. I still think he screwed up leaving his wife and children for a has-been singer, but to each his own. In any case, her big mouth will cause him to lose his public, and he needs to tell her to put a sock in it.
I want to hear what Annabella Lwin of Bow Wow Wow thinks too.
I checked her website. She hasn't issued a statement yet.
I thought she'd vanished after 1983.
I never get into the wife/singer thing. I've been divorced, and as such I know that no one on the outside ever knows what's going on in a failing marriage. No one here on Freep will ever know what transpired between Lance and his ex that drove them apart. I just wish him happiness with Crow.
I sure don't know or care what happened, but I'm under the impression she had a lot to do with it. I wish all of them happiness, but that doesn't change the fact that Crow will hurt his career if she keeps running her poisonous mouth. Case in point: The Dixie Chicks. When you continue to make your fans mad, they will forget you ever existed, which is what's going on with Crow now, and will reflect poorly on him.
Well, I can say this with near absolute certainty: Crow isn't likely to anger bicycling fans. If anything, Crow is to the right (politically) of most bicycling types. A vastly different situation than the Dixie Chicks and redneck country music fans.
That might be, but stupid is as stupid does...and she is mighty stupid.
Yeah, but it was also these whackjobs who were the first to cancel shows in New York and whine about how terrified there were to get on an airplane.
When meanwhile, bunches of decent people said "let's go to New York and support the city in its time of need."
I won't feel safe until Good Charlotte and the Goo Goo Dolls set this administration straight.
Right! But it's a movie now. 9/11 never happened.
Nope. She seems to still be a very minor player on the Euro dance charts.
Ahhh! Sheryl Crow is one of the ones responsible for us stopping before the job was done in the First Gulf War [Desert Storm], and therefore is one of the ones responsible for the murder of Iraqis by Saddam Hussein in the north and south of Iraq AFTER Desert Storm.
Hope the little Leftist is proud of her bloody trophies...
Sheryl Crow is a narcissistic nasty person. She never fails to get her face in the news. She isn't attractive. She has a large mouth and teeth, her jawline needs help. She seems trashy as well. She had a nose job which she denies. She steals and destroys other people's music. Yup she's priceless.
I do believe that Laura Ingraham nailed it-
"Shut Up and Sing"
or shut up and do what ever you do, but just SHUT UP
