So I'll make my own... 
I was just reading his website and found this:

LANCE MAKES ME ILL!
There, I've said it.  He's roughly my age, height and body weight but that's where it all ends. Life's just not fair!

Not just cancer survivors. What an inspiration to anyone who does any type of aerobic conditioning/exercise!
Or, in other words: Damn Shaneequa!

I'm watching right now......Ulrich is looking really good  and his teammates are all up front........with only 15 seconds for the yellow jersey....this is gonna be a great race. I guess Lance was severely dehydrated after the time trial two days ago....(lost 13 pounds in sweat)...hopefully he's recuped

I taped today's stage. (Here it's on in the AM and again 9-11pm and I can't stay up that late.) So we watch it on tape. So I tried so hard not to find out about today's stage - nearly impossible. It's all over the place! He is so GREAT!!!
(I sure hope I win the Trek contest that I entered so I can meet him!!!)

Come down to Texas and do the Ride for the Roses (his LAF ride) in October, I believe the weekend of the 25th. You may not meet him but you can say you 'rode with him'...you'll probably at least get a look at him! I plan to do it this year.

yay for Le Tour!!
it's the only thing more insane then march madness...
and yup, we've found the joy of taping now. dad doesn't much like commercials (especially the same 5 over and over and over....)
but wowzers!!! todays finish was insane!!! i don't wanna spoil it 'case you guys haven't caught the results... i've never seen so many people cross a line at one time.. it's not unlike a large group of children running with scissors (with untied shoes to boot). it just doesn't look safe.
lance's whipe out was crazy, but not after seeing the Jan Ulrich fall where the dude tumbles off the cliff . madness i say.
ps. anybody else love the english commentators? we're watching on OLN, he's a witty s.o.b.
