Fox Breaking: Armstrong Wins Last Tour de France
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,163473,00.html

PARIS — Texan Lance Armstrong (search) closed out his amazing career with a seventh consecutive Tour de France victory Sunday — and did it a little earlier than expected.

Because of wet conditions, race organizers stopped the clock as Armstrong and the main pack entered Paris. Although riders were still racing, with eight laps of the Champs-Elysees to complete, organizers said that Armstrong had officially won.

1. WAY TO GO, LANCE!!
Although I must admit it would have been better if he won without the judges freezing the clock.

3. I'm sorry
I'm going to need a secondary source. I don't believe a word that comes out of Fox News.

7. Alright
they are better, by a smidgen.

Congratulations, Lance. I bet Senator Kerry's visit had a great deal to do with your victory.
