Tailwind Sports announced yesterday that Lance Armstrong would be taking part in the Green Mountain Stage Race as the lone representative of the US Postal Service team. Reached at his home in Austin, TX, the six-time Tour de France winner indicated that his last-minute entry was motivated by the presence of former Saeco professional cyclist Justin Spinelli, whom Armstrong characterized as a disgruntled racer who wanted to destroy cycling. Said Armstrong: "I read what he said on that internet web site. He's just another one of those losers who ought to keep his lips zipped. I figure sticking to his wheel would give me some good training miles for SF." When asked whether he planned to launch any DoS attacks on the internet site (www.stolenunderground.com) on which Spinelli made his statements, Armstrong responded "Huh?"

Very few writers can pull off this type of attempted humor, and the number does not appear to be growing.
