Great day of racing today. Michael Rasmussen tore up the Alps again. I hope he can do it again Tuesday and hang on until the next mountain stages. This mountain freak deserves a chance to win in Paris after what happened to him the last time he was close.
Looking for a Glen Rice Inkredible and Alex Rodriguez cards

    I'm somewhat suprised that no one else follows this. Today was another very entertaining stage.

    I've watched some of it on the "vs" network, I like looking at the French countryside, don't pay much attention to anything

    I used to really be into it, but last year was the icing on the cake following the speculation surrounding the purity of Lance Armstrong's victories. I don't know one way or another if Armstrong was a doper, but it's a bummer that almost any great sporting performance from this era is going to be called into question.

    ...can it be called the Tour De Farce now?

    these guys take steroids, get blood transfusions etc. Maybe Barry Bonds should take up cycling image

    this has become the biggest joke sport this side of Roller Derby....

    they are riding a friggin bike? why do they need steroids? are there any honest athletes left?

    this may be the worst months in sports history...Black eyes all around...now we just need another hockey mess up to have it all....


    PS...does anyone think that that wrestlers suicide was fishy? i mean his coach and his former wrestling partner were found dead the week before......doesnt that bring up a red flag?
