Default TDF podium?

Wonder what the chances are of a USA sweep this year--either
Lance, Tyler, Levi, or Tyler, Lance, Levi?? Long shot, I'm
sure, but with how Levi's doing so far, a 3rd place for him
is not impossible--

Jean in VA

Dutch Eurosport talked about rumours that Bruyneel might be
interested in hiring Leipheimer for next year. Rabobank
apparently wants to postpone contract negotiations until
after the Tour. It may be too late.

Levi and Popovych, "a leader for each GT". Popo is not
biting (yet)

Dont forget Julich. He was third in 98. I think it will take
collapse by JU though.

There's a big fat asterisk beside the Tour that year. I
don't think it's a good indication of his true ability.

Actually the nitwit should have attacked Jan in that Tour.
If he had he would have gotten a 3rd instead of a 4th
overall. And yes, it WAS a good indication of a clean
athletic ability.
