Lance - Glad To Have You Back!

Posted in Life ::: January 18, 2009 12:24 PM

Lance Armstrong returned to cycling today by finishing squarely in the middle of the pack, by design, in a 30 mile criterium in Australia.  The link to the story is here: http://www.usatoday.com/sports/cycling/2009-01-18-armstrong-tdu-crit_N.htm?csp=34  Lance will begin his long trek (no pun intended) back to competitive cycling for earnest when he competes in the six day Tour Down Under which starts this upcoming week.  No matter what you think about Armstrong and this comeback, in my view, it's good all around.  He is the most recognizable name in professional cycling to the world outside of the hard core enthusiasts.  He helps the sport by being a part of it.  And his fight against cancer is helped, not hindered, by him being an active cyclist.  This ugly disease is in need of a knockout punch and he can raise more money and can spread the message more effectively by being active.  And quite frankly, I still believe the guy has something in the tank.  Maybe it's one 37 year old wanting another 37 year old to show the world that he can still bring it, but I'm looking forward to following this.

And what's this got to do with law? Nada. But if you were expecting soley legal updates, then you haven't been paying attention.  Law. Life. Community.  It's all fair game.  Let it rip Lance.
