Mr. LovermanHere's a bit of light relief and a distraction from Floyd.
Bettini on Flanders
"Flanders is a race that I am still missing," he explained. "Flanders is like a beautiful woman. So, it is like I am not an example of beauty, and my build is not so adapted to this course. I have to work to come from behind; I have to court her... It is right that Tom [Boonen] will have the full disposition of the team, but I hope to have my say too.""
The come from behind comment is very illuminating. We now know the way Mr. Bettini likes to do things with the ladies.

elsewhere in the same interview the rainbow clad betinni mentions the million dollar payoff for the new dubai ride. from a realistic perspective he notes the team must feed more than 60 families, and given the purse foercasts the race will soon displace lombardi as the season finale.
but there is also the romantic interpretation of flanders, with the woman from behind. perhaps it is the ying and the yang of the cricket.
whether it is or not, i know flanders is the classic i anticipate the most. it will be an epic battle between the world champion, and the lion of flanders - not to mention the other conterders not on QS!
