Reuters carries this story about the time trial yesterday in the Tour de France:

“There were lots of aggressive fans surrounding the riders and I even saw two idiots spit at Lance Armstrong.”

Where is the “Can’t we all just get along?” mentality we’ve grown so accustomed to from our European friends? And what has Lance Armstrong ever done to them to deserve this kind of thing? Oh, I know. He’s a Texan and has beat them at their own game for the last five years.
