But at the end of the day, as a sports fan, he's just a cyclist and I get sick of people reacting like him winning the Tour De France is bigger than the Super Bowl, World Cup, and Wrestlemania all rolled into one.

It's a bike race, and next year when Lance isn;'t there, it won't get more than a 10 second mention on Sportscenter. Unless an American is winning.
Don't get me wrong, its a cool story and all that but I fall into the category of not giving a shit. Just the way you're spinning the arguement is silly when it could happen when he is British, Spanish, German etc etc.
