Will it be Team Trek/Team Bristol-Myers Squibb/Team Nike/Mellow Johnny/Team Olsen Twin? Can he, does he have the time (he has the money and funding) to create, build a team? We watched one team change it's name/sponsorship just days before last year's TdF, can and will Lance do the same?

Or will he attempt to fit in to a team, grab the crown and proclaim himself King?

Even though his own team would be cool, I doubt he'll do that, since he'd have to then get an invite to ride the tour, and we all know how hard that is.

Maybe Lance forming his own team is Plan B if Astana is disinvited again this year. Lance probably wants to compete against Bruyneel the least of all people, that is someone who knows whatever weaknesses Lance may have, and has Contador and the team to potentially beat him.

If he goes to Plan B, an invite to the TdF is hard to get, but he will say he has won the race the last 7 times he entered it, the team will be well financed and have all the supporting riders, etc he needs, and no one wants to be known as anti-cancer research.
