Boonen Takes 2 Stages; TTT Tomorrow

Tom Boonen has had a great season so far by winning the momumental Classics Paris-Roubaix and the Ronde Van Vlaanderen (Tour of Flanders). He now has two Tour de France stage wins under his belt this season in only 3 days' racing.

Tomorrow is the team time trial, where you should expect Discovery to deliver the goods and put Lance in yellow, as they won the test in 2003 and 2004. But so far, Lance is second, two seconds behind David Zabriskie.

    I am looking forward to the team time trial. Tom and Dave did great today. What's up with Robby McEwen (I think that was him) and his head twitches there at the end. What do you think he was thinking?

    I don't have many ideas, but maybe he's trying to keep Stuart O'Grady from getting ahead, or maybe he was just trying to stay upright. I like to think it was the latter.

    But, I am afraid it's the former. And that's why the officials penalized him.
