"Lance Armstrong can be assured of a red-hot welcome in the Alps when he joins up with his Discovery Channel team Monday.
But this time, the 34-year-old Texan's exploits on the bike will not be the reason. The now retired seven-time winner hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons a few days ago when he labeled the French soccer team ""assholes.""
A cheery greeting for Monsieur Armstrong
And given some headlines and editorials in the French press ahead of his expected arrival, the American could find himself on a bumpy ride when he joins up with the team which he partly owns, Discovery Channel.
The newspaper France Soir took the most direct shot at the American with a headline on Monday which was equal to his outburst. ""Welcome to France, asshole!""
