Readint the title of the post, I had a flashback to an old Saturday Night Live Commercial: John
Belushi, competing in a decathlon, espousing his choice of cereal: little donuts (I can't remember
if they were powdered or chocolate).

They show him eating a big bowl full, then doing the pole vault - now that was SNL in it's prime!

Jeez, I thought Jan looked fat in his past early seasons until I saw Lance in Velonews today. Did he
decide to get on the uber-diet of brats, beer, and German Chocolate Cake since Jan spanked him last
year? He must have put back on 10 kilos in the off-season. He's got a double-chin, and what's up
with that butt? I'm hearing Sir Mix-a-lot "I like big butts" in my head right now, cuz Lance is
packing much back. Did you read that little side note in Velonews about him having to adjust his
skinsuit during the TT? It's because his gut/butt are so big that skinsuit/chamois are stretched
beyond their usefulness. BTW, that new TT position is not going to fix that gut getting in the way
of his legs and those upper arms flapping in the wind. Did he somehow forget how to do pushups and
curls? And you can't tell me that that table muscle is not from drinking plenty of Shiner Bock on
the beach during spring training. He claims that Floyd is climbing better than him now--well no
sh*t, Lance, look at your gut. Better yet, have you seen your Nike's lately? I'm not counting on TDF
#6 if he's going to show up looking like Eddie Mercx.

This is true, Steve, but remember the times that Jan had weight problems in February, and showed
up at the Tour still struggling to get top form because of those problems.

Sure, but you gotta admit the field isn't exactly overwhelming at this race.

Funny. I was thinking about this over the past couple days, without even having seen this thread.
It's "Little Chocolate Covered Doughnuts"

Maybe Lance got one of O'Grady's OGWGFIW-RT jersey's and took the "Power Rings" shoulder art
as a sign.

How do you recover in the off-season? I've probably put on a couple pounds and slacked off (travel
and a cold), but this weekend was hard work and I'll get more honest as the weeks go by.

Lookin' for that sweet spring sunshine and some fast miles.

Yes, it was.
