  1. My girlfriend heard Paul Sherwen call Ullrich on last night's OLN
    coverage. She asked why they call him Kaiser. I just told her that I
    didn't know (because I was trying to watch the race).

    After a couple of seconds, she asked me: "Is it because he eats too
    many Kaiser rolls?" She was dead serious too...I've never made any fat
    Jan comments to her. She's only heard all about Jan's trouble with
    his winter weight from the commentary on OLN...I thought it was
    hilarious to hear that from someone who doesn't follow the sport!

    The call Beckenbauer Kaiser.

    JA is nowhere near the same level of achievements, from a German
    perspective.

    Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Jan
    Ullrich will return to Germany, raise great armies and invade France and
    most of Europe. When next he rides the Tour de France nobody will dare
    attack him.

    They call Jan "Der Kaiser" because to call him 'Der Fuehrer" would be
    politically incorrect.

    The moves Kaiser Wilhelm II made leading to WWI were quite comparable
    (in quality) to Teletubbies' stratiegies in this tour. He seems to
    have had a medical reason for this, tho.
