Miserable comeback for Lance Amstrong

The seven time Tour De France American champion was knocked off his bike during a pileup in the first stage of the Vuelta of Castilla and Leon race and was taken to a hospital by ambulance. The American, who crashed about 20 kilometers (12.5 miles) from the stage's finish, was grimacing and trying to hold his right arm as he entered the ambulance. "The collarbone is broken and I have a little bit of road-rash abrasions," Armstrong said as he left Valladolid University Hospital. "I've never had this happen before, it's pretty painful. I feel really miserable." Armstrong said he would fly to the United States and meet with medical experts to decide whether he needs surgery, leaving in question his participation in the Tour de France in July. He should have stayed in retirement in my opinion. Sometimes it's better to stay away from a sport once you retire because comeback can sometimes be regretable. The 37 year old is schedule to participate in the Tour De France in july.

After winning the competition seven times he is still trying to win it for the eighth time. After a three-year retirement, Armstrong started his comeback at the Tour Down Under in Australia in January, where he finished 29th overall, 49 seconds behind winner Allan Davis of Australia. He then finished seventh in the Tour of California in February. X-rays confirmed that Armstrong fractured his right collarbone. The fracture is said to be clean and according to experts he could come back sooner than expected. The guy is old and worn out and I think he should remain retired. He has made history for coming back before after being diagnose with cancer and he is widely respected about that. Some body please tell this guy enough is enough and that too much of everything is a mess. It's time for him to leave the sport to other young atheletes who looked up to him as their hero. He has made his mark on the game and in my opinion should finally call it a quit. I love you man but it's time to go. A lot of proffesional atheletes retired from their respective sports and alway try to make a come back. I think this is childish because if you are not ready to leave the sport you love don't be fool. It is always good to leave a sport in honor and stay retired. Most atheletes who make a come back always leave in a dishonorable favtion and so my advise for Lance will be stay away my good friend.
