Lance Armstrong: Back in the Saddle!

Annnnnnnd...it's official. Lance is back!
Vanity Fair has the exclusive interview. Lance is "100 percent" certain he's aiming for the 2009 Tour de France (so much for my continental team idea), but he has yet to announce with what team he'll do that.
However, Astana boss Johan Bruyneel is quoted on VeloNews.com as saying "What's sure, if he wanted to come back, I wouldn't say no. And I could never imagine him riding for another team. It would be here. And if he did come back, it would be to win."
So many questions: Where's that leave Levi? Who can climb the l'Alpe d'Huez faster, Lance or Contador? Will Phil and Paul go crazy on this weekend's Cyclysm Sunday show like Suzyn Waldman did when that other big-time Texan, Roger Clemens, came back?
