If there are no "accidents" caused by the French fans who spat on him yesterday .... Posted by: a fan of Lance at July 22, 2004 04:53 PM"No gifts this year," he said. "I want to win." I heard Bush is saying the same thing about this election. Sorry, I couldn't resist. Posted by: Chris Wage at July 22, 2004 05:40 PMPost a comment

With an amazing sprint finish, Lance Armstrong won his third stage in three overpowering days Thursday at the Tour de France, pulling even further ahead of his outclassed rivals as he marches toward a record sixth crown. The stage win was the Texan's fourth at this Tour - matching his previous best in other years where he also dominated - and perhaps the most incredible. He literally snatched victory from German Andreas Kloden at the line, pedaling so hard that his bicycle swung from side to side beneath him.
