Ahhhh. Now that was better. Nice riding by Floyd today.
Hey, you think it will piss off the French to have an American - the son of openly religious Americans who happens to be the most un-chic (ergo un-French) person in the world - wearing the Maillot Jaune on Bastille Day? I do. Betcha the first "Floyd is doping" story hits the French press within 48 hours.

I don't know guy...
Much of France is pretty rural, unhip, and somewhat religious...not to mention very friendly and welcoming.
A soft-spoken farmboy like Floyd might
be pretty popular.
You make a good point. The rural French may be okay. I don't think they write too many of the newspapers though. I think the French of LeMonde - the self-appointed arbiters of what is civilized - are the ones many of us on this side of the pond dislike. I expect the French in the Northeast and in Brittany and through the Massif Central quite like Floyd. Just their equivalent of Manhattanites can probably find a lot about him to hate.
And if you call me "guy" again you're toast. What do you think I am... French?
