Postal took the team time trial today in rainy conditions. Lance, who now has the yellow jersey, is leading Tyler Hamilton by 36 seconds and Jan Ullrich by 55 seconds. He will probably lose the yellow before they get to the mountains, but will get it back in time as the sprinters cant climb. Important thing is the near minute gap he has on the big German, and the good lead on Hamilton also.

IMHO, after achieving his "God like" status in the world of cycling, he crapped on his wife and kids, and took up with ultra liberal Sheryl Crowe... I hope he has a nice dose of reality soon.

I agree. He is a great bike rider, but a failure as a husband and father. Which do you think is more important!

i think that i said nothing about how i felt about his personal decisions, and that although i am ultra conservative, her being liberal should make no damn difference, and that as a cyclist, as well as a HUGE sports fan in general, the thought of seeing a 6 time TDF winner is something that I am glad I have the opportunity to see. we dont know **** about his personal life, lots of marriages fall apart after what he and his wife went through together, so that is no reason to pass all this judgement. i simply made a comment that he is on his way to winning #6.

none of you on this board have the slightest idea why his marriage failed....have you ever considered that it might have been his wife's fault?

Big L can be a real a-hole, but find a top shelf athlete, besides Tim Duncan, who is not.

I am still betting some $$ on Tyler Hamilton.

At least he did not crap on his wife and kids.
Plus Tyler's wife is hotter than Cheryl Crow.

Hamilton cant do it...Phonak isnt strong enough. The Blue Train is stronger than ever, and I think Lance is on a mission after last year's near miss.

And why does it always have to be "he crapped on his wife and kids." He just dropped out of the Olympics to spend time with his kids.

You have to be fair. None of us know why their marriage failed. To add to that how do any of us even know that he is an *******? He has some obvious qualitities on the surface of his personality but what else do any of us know of him other than what we read or see on television?

You have to admit though, it is awesome what he has been doing over in Frogland.

do you know what you are talking about? or are you like everyone else who things they do?

you dont know anything about what it is. maybe she was sick of his lifestyle. why should he give it up? she knew it when they met, she lived it, maybe she couldnt handle it.

i dont know either, just saying that maybe she gave up.

Ahhh...yes, but if I keep watching OLN I might have to wear a freakin' LL Bean vest in July in Texas. Must stop the maddness.

i love the OLN coverage. and just think, the "real race" hasnt even started, which means we still have 2 solid weeks of Phil Liggett and his crazy off-the-wall sayings, plus it isnt even Bastille Day yet....
