Lance Armstrong, Greatest Active Athlete?

[NastyHam]

i think what he is doing is amazing and unparelleled in sports. to ride thousands of miles on a bike... at all! let alone up mountains?!?! thats crazy hard. personally looking at bikes makes me wheeze sometimes. but 5 in a row? against equally fanatical cyclists? you think jan ullrich naps all year? that fuckers out there 24/7 riding his ass off too. i think what amazed me most is that after he won this year he berated himself for not doing well and calling this year's race "unacceptable." :confused: he just beat the best in the world and he basically said he stunk and that next year hell be much better... hes only 31... 3 cancers... i only wonder how many more he can win before he calls it quits... anyway, for what its worth, he gets my vote for the greatest alive...
