PARIS -- Lance Armstrong has been stripped of his award in the Legion of Honor, the best-known recognition in France. Armstrong was given the rank of "Chevalier" -- or Knight -- in the "Legion dHonneur" in 2005, the last year of his seven consecutive Tour de France victories. He was later stripped of those titles for doping. A Legion of Honor official, who wasnt authorized to be quoted by name, said Wednesday she was unable to indicate when the decision was made to remove Armstrongs award. She said the organization doesnt traditionally announce it publicly when honorees lose their decoration. Armstrong declined comment. The Legion of Honor was created under Napoleon Bonaparte in 1802, and roughly 1 million people have received it over the years. It is Frances highest honour. Joe Thomas Youth Jersey .

That strategy didnt work this time. Jordan hit four straight free throws during a 10-4 run over the final 2:48 that gave the Los Angeles Clippers a 110-103 victory over the Wizards on Wednesday night. "Im going to ask Doc if I can shoot the techs from now on," Jordan joked. Blake Griffin led five players in double figures with 29 points as the Clippers won their fourth in a row. Jamal Crawford added 21 points, including two three-pointers from 29 and 33 feet, and Jordan had 14 points and 17 rebounds for the Clippers, who beat the Wizards for the sixth straight time at home. Darren Collison scored 16 points to help the team improve to 11-3 without the injured Chris Paul. "We have a lot of really good players," Griffin said. "Sometimes some of these guys dont get the credit they deserve, thats what Ive learned about our team." Back home for the first time after going 5-2 on their Grammy road trip, the Clippers improved to 19-3 at Staples Center this season. "It was our best opportunity to beat them, especially with Chris Paul out," John Wall said. "But theyre still a great team and theyve been winning games. Its the same as you see without Chris in there. Those other guys play the same way. J.J. Redick can shoot the ball and Jamal Crawfords one of the best at creating his own shots." Bradley Beal scored 10 of his 20 points in the fourth, and Wall had 19 points and 11 assists for Washington. The Wizards, who trailed by 16 points in the game, cut their deficit to 81-80 early in the fourth on Garrett Temples steal and basket.dddddddddddd. After Crawford scored, Beals basket got the Wizards within one again. "We put ourselves in a great position, but we just didnt have it at the end of the game," Beal said. "They were executing at the other end of the floor and we couldnt get a stop." J.J. Redick, who finished with 20 points, and Crawford combined to score the Clippers first 16 points of the fourth, with Redick hitting two three-pointers in that stretch to put them up 97-90. "Him and J.J. have this thing going," Clippers coach Doc River said. "Its just been really good stuff. We can do that with veterans." Kevin Seraphins basket got Washington to 100-99. Collison scored and the Wizards had a basket disallowed on a shot-clock violation. Jordan got fouled and stepped to the line having made just 2 of 6 to that point. But he sank both to extend the Clippers lead to 104-99. Beal, who was 4 of 6 from the line, got fouled and missed both. Jordan made another pair of free throws for a 106-99 lead. Crawford added two more, going 11 of 12 from the line. "We did a lot of fouling down the stretch and we didnt make plays at the offensive end," Beal said. "We got out of rhythm a little bit."
