Only if the parties don't involve white sheets....

What I like about toga parties is that there aren't any burning crosses.

The only thing on fire at my parties is the roof...

I don't want your house to burn down, but it's a relief there aren't any flames coming off the lawn.

When your parties are awesome, they say your roof is on fire. It is a hip hop thing.....

It's a bigger relief that you don't know what I'm referring to. There's hope for you yet.

Yes, I agree...
Shall we steer Memph towards cycling again?

If we can catch up to him. I understand his attacks (on the bike) are pretty wicked. He's known to leave the pack in the dust.

You would have better luck in making me beleive that LA is a great rider, then catching me on a bike. Maybe if I fell off or had a flat.....

The thing about this game is that you don't know what I look like. You might think you're up against me, but after you get hopelessly dropped, you may begin to wonder if the guy you were racing against is really me or some retired Euro Pro rider who's read some of your posts here and wants to fill in like a pinch hitter albeit incognito.

Will lance win 6? Maybe, but i think it will not depend on him, but t-mobile. If they cant work together as a team, i.e. if the other greats on the teams dont sacrifice for jan, jan will lose (it'll be like riding alone), and lance might win. Virenque (sp?) already said he will go for the polka-dot jersey. Thats one less good climber helping jan. One of the reasons lance has won is because his team supports him 100%. No member of the team has ever won a stage while lance has been winning (ignoring the TTT). If jan can get the same support from his allstar cast, lance is sunk. But, a more important question is what the hell is going on in cycling. No one races for the sake of racing anymore. It all about the win. For example:
"In 1969, Eddy Merckx, already a lock for the yellow jersey with an eight minute lead a week away from Paris, dropped the hammer, and the peloton on the 6,935 ft. Tourmalet, and two other climbs and finished seven minutes over his chasers. Thanks to this strategically senseless attack, Merckx took the race's yellow, green, and polka-dot jersey."
Eddy took a chance, and might have bonked and lost the tour because of it, but it made for the most amazing tour in history. Lance got tons of coverage for his avoidance of beloki. Imagine how crazy people would go for this sort of attack. We need more champions like Merckx. All the big racers look for now is the win, and thats all sponsors care about. I want more crazy gambles, some great racing. I want to see racers throw caution to the wind, and produce some legendary races. Most off all, i wanna see racers race more than just the tour. This focus on the tour is killing cycling, sponsors soon will pull out of every other race, cuz the greats never go to these races. Hopefully the proposed pro-tour will help things out, even though i think it is fatally flawed (thats another thread). Until these tour divas (lance, jan, tyler...) get out and race all the time, i dont care if lance or anyone wins 10 tours in a row, it will never mean as much as the wins of Merckx, Lemond, or even the unknown racers who only one once, then faded into obscurity.
