He might as well retire now and save him the embarassment of getting his
ass kicked in July.

You read it here first
Thanks

I'd hate to see Lance go out like Lemond did, having to abandon in the
middle of the race. Better if he retired during the top of his game.

Of course, if he wins 7, I think that record may stand for a while....

Then again I though that when big Mig put away five in a row, too.

What's your basis for this? If it was today's time trial, then I'd have to
ask, would you really expect Lance to go all out in trecherously wet
conditions on a highly technical course (for a TT) and put everything at
risk to win the TT in Georgia? If that was your expectation, then ... well,
to be blunt ... you're ... well, nevermind.

Psyco
Yes thats I expect and yours is exactly the type of response I would
expect from all you Lance lovers. Somebody better put Papai-hole on
suicide watch
Thanks

Hey Billy,

How far are you from Philadelphia? Just curious.

I haven't noticed Ken holding up his end here lately ... so I thought I'd
try to put something out there to fill the void. (That sentence almost
reads like testimony in the Michael Jackson trial.)

Anyway, after making that post, I checked in to cyclingnews.com and read
some of Lance's post-ride comments. Based on those, to you sir, I say ...
nevermind.

True.
Makes you ask the question is who is the next American "big fish"? The
pool is looking a bit shallow and not very populated.

No, I called it first. I told the whole world he was finished last June
after he got his ass handed to him by Iban Mayo at Dauphine Libere. So
get in line and show some respect, Junior.

I'm sure some think Ken fills a much-needed void.

I don't think the time trial proves much of anythiing yet. Can't blame
him for not wanting to crash in the wet. We should wait until THIS
year's dauphine- where they will be doing the Ventoux AND the Joux
Plaine.

Of course, how could I miss it? That's what made it so beautiful.
Sarcasm can be cathartic too, though. At least it works for me.

I'm not wrong, just ahead of my time.

Truthfully, I don't think anything much will be proven until July. Iban
Mayo and Jan Ullrich both looked better in June than they did in July
last year. Vino was looking good too until he ended up in some swiss
ditch.

Too many IFs right now. IF Ullrich times his peak correctly. IF Cunego
pulls a child prodigy routine. IF they all stay out of ditches, etc., etc.
