Is Ullrich playing poker? Or is he off a little?

I have thought that a couple times myself. Is Jan playing some games... trying to hide his form... make it seem as if he wouldn't be a real threat for the GC?? With him dropping out of more races than he seems to finish, I'm starting to get a little concerned it no 'act'. Add to that Lance winning a stage he shouldn't have today, plus more than likely Lance's REAL strengths yet to be shown later this week...

Wonder

Yea, I've wondered if JU was playing a little bluff. But then that would take strategy...and I think JU has only one strategy...try to out muscle the competition.

My bets right now are that he is not bluffing, training slower than usualy (like LA) and waiting for the second week of the Tour and praying to suddenly be on form. He will have a good July 24th (the long ITT) and make it back on the podium, but just barely.
