  1. What's up with that? The OLN guys were almost orgasming over
    Lance. "Look at that smile" repeated a few times, then the
    slo-mo shots of Lance's face. Then the guy interviewing
    Sheryl Crow talks about Lance's smile. Ugh. Makes me want to
    vomit. And earlier they were orgasming about the
    "perfection" of the Postal team's line. Do the commentators
    all line up like that to give Lance blow jobs after he
    races? It's like no one else in the race even exists. I know
    Lance is going for 6, but there must be other stories as
    well. Is the European coverage more balanced?

    I'd expect that the Euro coverage IS more balanced. Like
    you, I hope so. But OLN is catering to the US market and in
    the US, the TdF is the only bike race and Lance is the only
    rider as far as most are concerned.

    It is the Only Lance Network. I find it helps to just mute
    the sound, do some drugs and watch the racing. ;-)

    If you subscribe to the Sean Kelly school of stage race
    celibacy then this would be a sure sign that he won't win
    this year.

    Jeez, verbifying a noun again... And what's wrong
    with a nice smile, anyway?

    Believe it or not, it's not much better in france. All they
    talked about also was how much he was smiling. They're also
    showing the lance chronicles now.

  7. What's the matter ?? Are you a little upset with Lance ?? Too bad for you.

    I liked how either P or P said that all the USPS riders
    were taking their pulls, AS #3 skips his pull towards the
    end of the ride.

    Bob roll is always first but Lance does not like it because
    he use his hands too much!

    you.

    In all seriousness, I've found the French, in general, to
    very much like Lance. It's not as if they have any great
    French cyclists to be cheering on at the moment, and, let's
    face it, if Lance's greatest crime is to focus 100% on a
    single bike race, and that bike race happens to be the Tour
    de FRANCE...

    However, if the French are going to be subject to repeated
    reruns of some of the more insipid episodes of the Lance
    Chronicles... well, maybe we can get together with them and
    blame Canada!

    WTF? I happen to like and respect Lance very much. This will
    be the sixth straight year that I'll be be cheering him on
    on the Champs Elysees. As far as I'm concerned he can keep
    winning the tour as long as he wants to ride.

    However, there's more to bike racing and the TdF than Ms.
    Crow and Peet's coffee. I guess, that is unless you're a
    fawning top-posting newbie.

    Blow jobs don't count. Ask Bill Clinton.

    Hey, I've been taking every opportunity over the years to
    draw people into the sport. Even hanging around the pub last
    night after trivia and explaining Team Time Trialing to
    onlookers.

    Are you doing your part for a world that doesn't require
    dumbing down the sport commentary?

    It is good to see Lance smile, so much of the time he
    looks so dour.

    It was a pretty fantastic smile. Even I was touched.
