  1. This Sunderland character has no idea of what he speaks. Cyclingnews
    diarist? What a joke.

    In comparison, my inside sources are infallilble. I have the world
    wide web at my disposal.

    Sunderland? What a schmuck. Lance tifosi.

    The following was snipped from the following article:
    http://www.cyclingnews.com/news.php?id=news/2004/jun04/jun16news

    Cyclingnews diarist Scott Sunderland is never afraid to speak his mind
    about some of the more controversial goings on in cycling. In his
    latest entry from the Tour de Suisse, Scott gives his opinion on the
    new book written by David Walsh and Pierre Ballester entitled LA
    Confidential.

    "I talked to a L'Equipe journalist this morning and we had a
    discussion about the new book, LA Confidential. I haven't seen the
    full details - the only snippet I've read is from Emma O'Reilly, but
    it's been a hot topic today.

    I honestly can't work out what benefit writing a book like this about
    Lance Armstrong will achieve - except make the writers a [censored] of
    money, what's the point?

    I hope that the readers of Cyclingnews don't buy his book because I
    have the feeling it's all about money, the timing picked to publish it
    says enough don't you think? Cycling has been at the brunt of too many
    scandals - while other sports are getting away with a lot worse. I
    agree, some of them have deserved to come out, but most have been
    sensational.

    Too many people are hanging on Lance Armstrong, he is such an
    inspiration to so many people, in and outside the sport. We need guys
    like Lance; really, people need to stop "killing" their heroes!
