The Handsome Man with Athletic Thighs
Running In Circles

Course: None

Comments: I got to watch a Mariner game in the company suite tonight. Too bad the M's got shelled.

Wow, does Robbie McEwen look sharp in this year's Tour de France, especially when his lead-out man doesn't start 300 meters too early. Boonen has his work cut out for him if he wants to win the Green Jersey. There are still, however, many sprint stages left, so anything can happen.

Tomorrow is the first ITT. I really think Michael Rogers is going to win. I think Landis will take second and Zabriskie will take third. T-Mobile has a lot to prove after losing Ullrich, and Rogers, being the World Time Trial Champion, is one of the guys who can do it. I find Time Trial stages rather boring, but they do shake up the GC. It should be interesting to see who pulls on Yellow and how long he keeps it.
 
Sometimes I feel like I'm breathing underwater.
