i especially like how in the pre-race interviews with hincapie and lipehimer, they both made references to discovery being "the strongest team in the peloton." PLEASE! astana has the best tour team, and outside that CSC is easily stronger and deeper (i have my doubts about their GC potential).
i guess they are all sipping the same juice that led them to believe hincapie could be a GC contender last year. the tour may not be won on mineral water, but it sure wont be won on those delusions either.
