  1. He made a fatal mistake by giving it away. It's over.

    I thought the Tour ended next Sunday.

    Dung muncher,

    It's no more over now than when you started your last trolling thread.
    He didn't lose a single second to anyone who matters. Please go back
    and finish your steaming heap of ignorance and leave us alone.

    Yes, but realizing what he had done, Landis fell over dead in the
    parking lot this morning from remorse.

    Shoulda had a dog do it for him. Dogs are good at that kind of thing.

    Yes in fact it may be over...because I don't think anyone will surpass
    Landis now in the Alps. Even if they did, they would have to be 3 or 4
    minutes ahead of him before Saturday's contre la montre.

    Literally or virtually fatal?

    He's in big trouble. 3 consecutive big mountain stages
    without a strong team. Strong non-simultaneous
    T-Mobile, Rabo, Gerolsteiner and now Caisse attacks,
    will crack him. Mark my words.

    We'll see if Landis can overcome a weak team, it's been done before,
    and so far he's managed to stay on top. Perreiro lost 1minute 40
    seconds in the first time trial. In my estimation, Perreiro may have to
    have a 3 minute or 3:30 advantage going into Saturday.
    Kloden said he's feeling 100 percent now; but he'll still have to prove
    himself. Menchov looks the strongest on the mountains but Landis was
    able to keep his wheel. Evans seems to keep the pace but can't detach
    himself or attack...so far that is. Sastre same thing. And someone else
    not mentioned here could have a monster stage and take the whole damn
    thing. But that's unlikely. Can't wait for Tuesday!

    Kloden, perhaps but he has looked frail in the mountains so far. Menchov's
    team has many injuries so his team is equal to Phonak. Same for Sastre, many
    injuries and a focus on stage wins. Evan's team has spent alot of energy on
    the green jersey.

    I say Floyd because he is focused like no-other.

    I don't think Caisse d'Epargne is going to attack... Gerolsteiner are also
    more likely to make Leipheimer stay with the favorites as long as possible
    and perhaps win the stage like that. In my opinion, T-Mobile is the most
    likely to ride aggressively of the teams you mention, but even their
    experiences in the Pyrenees may prompt them to ride more conservatively the
    coming stages. For Rabobank, such a style worked out well so why would they
    change when it's better for them to count on Landis to crack? They should
    be able to make it to the podium even if he doesn't.

    A close field doesn't guarantee an exciting race. The last years, we've
    seen many teams that had 'no other option but to attack', but in the end
    they were very crafty at finding other options, like follow Armstrong,
    follow Armstrong or follow Armstrong and his team.There has been no
    indication this year will be fundamentally different, even without
    Armstrong.

    He took Ekimov's example and went straight to zombie.
    Obtaining a blood sample is a poser.
