We could joke about a lot of things like the NoVA Expos, but this fixation about the French borders on psychosis. Joke you say?

Still doesn't help with the frenchies too much, given that he is the third most unpopular sportsman in France. Maybe its because he's still friends with Pres. Bush.

Lance Armstrong made negative ( hence accurate) comments about the Iraq excercise in ineptitude, incompetencey and dishonesty well before the race began. Doesn't anyone pay attention?

You didn't hear about the spitting? You didn't see the wire service photo of the spectator giving Lance the middle finger about four feet from his bike during a climb in the Pyrenees? (No links, but the stories were all over the news about as week ago.) I only wish this were a joke. You didn't hear about the spitting?

Lots of non-frenchmen have won the tour before, and what Lance has done has never before been accomplished - 6 consecutive victories. I'm sure the French overwhelmingly respect and admire this achievement. I'm sure there are a few that will be sore losers and will interject politics into it. But there are always sore losers when someone beats you at your own game. Remember when Taiwan regularly won the Little League World Series in the 1970s, and many in the US thought that they won it by using ringers? Those were the sore losers, and they finally got Taiwan out of the LL world series by limiting it to only US teams. You're putting too much politics into this event.
