Interesting comment. You wouldn't get this sort of thing from LA a few years ago.
Glad to hear he backpedaled on that comment.
P.S. The Big Boys are back, and the original observation will be borne out by this year's results. Lance may say insensitive things from time to time, but he is often just telling the truth as he sees it, no matter how impolitic, and sometimes that sounds arrogant. Oh well.
P.P.S. If he really wants to go into politics he'll have to get more diplomatic. He's working on it.
P.P.P.S. I'm not going into politics, so you can all go F yourselves.
