    He's unbelievable. I was hoping he'd regain the lead, but I wasn't very worried. He's so much better than all the other riders it's like Mark McGwire in a home run contest with a bunch of college kids ......incredible athlete

    I used to watch him train when I lived in Austin. They don't call it the "Tour de Lance" for nothing.

    He is an incredible athlete. I am tired of hearing the doping accusations, but that is what happens when you are so much more dominating than any other athlete.

    I don't know about that. I don't recall hearing those types of accusations about Tiger, although I don't think he can be considered "more dominating" any longer....

    If I were to ever call a sports figure a hero it would be him above any others. To beat cancer and go on to be such a competitor during and afterwards is indescribable.

    I was pretty happy Subaru picked him up as a spokesperson being a Subaru owner myself 8)

    It's sad that he was getting spit on while traveling through some of the countryside. What the French fail to remember is that they would still be eating bratwurst if it wasn't for the US and allies a few years back

    True, true. It's sweet that an American came over to a French event and proceeded to pimp-slap any and all comers He's showin the Frenchies how it's done
