Are any of you watching the Tour de France?
I didn't even realize it was going on. But honestly, do any of you guys care now that Lance is gone?

1. Didn't really care when he was in it, Nothing against the Tour itself,
just that sports don't really draw me.

Yeah, I know, I'm not saying anything interesting, but I wanted to put in something other than "kick" :)

2. I care more that Jan Ullrich and Basso are gone...
It was going to be a great showdown, but they got tossed before the start for doping.
It may still be exciting when it hits the mountains...we'll see.
I'm a Floyd Landis fan now.

3. There must be, like 12 or so people in it, right? Or did they let a few
kids on tricycles enter to replace everyone they booted this year?

4. Yes. I cared before Lance, and still love it now.
It's one of the world's great sporting events. I guess ya'll must wait for Floyd Landis to wear yellow before you'll pay attention. Why Americans can't enjoy the expoloits of athletes from other nations is beyond me.
