1. I am now...
Channel 60 on Comcast Digital Cable, Dallas, TX.

50 miles to go, and Lance looks like he's in terrific shape. This is history in the making.

3. I got up at 7:30 A EDT just to watch him. I get all choked up watching him
He is a real hero...one of the few athletes that the kids can look up to as a role model.
There is no tougher sport than this when it comes to endurance and mental toughness.

4. So the fact that
He beat a man to death with his bicycle in Reno just to watch him die means nothing to you?

You know how I know that is total bullshit, aside from how out of character violence is to him, Lance would never abuse his bicycle in that manner. So there!!!!!!!!!!!

:headbang:

9. It's official!
It's raining in Paris, so the officials invoked the "rain rule" and took finishing times on the first lap on the Champs.

What a guy!

12. Cycling's "Babe Ruth"
We have witnessed a career that will never be equaled. It has been an honor to be able to watch this class act set a record that will never be broken. There will be other greats in the future but no one will ever touch this man's legacy.
