06-17-2010 'OUTSIDE' MAGAZINE DIGITALLY ALTERS ARMSTRONG COVER Yahoo! Sports is reporting that seven-time Tour de France Champion Lance Armstrong isn't pleased with an Outside magazine cover that intentionally altered his T-shirt to add a profane slogan. The cover of the magazine (the eighth time he has appeared on its cover) was photo-shopped to add "38. BFD" on a plain blue T-shirt Armstrong was wearing. The 38 refers to Armstrong's age and "BFD" stands for "Big F-king Deal." Armstrong was not pleased by the magazine's action and Tweeted his displeasure. (LINK TO STORY)
