BOYCOTT DISCOVERY CHANNEL

Boycott Discovery Channel.

It's the only way we as fans can influence change. Flex your power.

What a counter-productive thought -- it's not as if cycling doesn't
have enough prospective problems attracting financial supporters. Give
yourself a dope slap.

Best,

How much do you want to bet he'd miss?

I am against any Boycott. Indeed it is useless ( remember the ORelly
boycott)

The Sponsors, it seems, are more afraid with the link done in the subliminar
way by the consumer : Discovery (or Phonak) - Lance - Doped - Cheater

Did Floyd ride for DC? I thought he left the last year of the USPS
sponsorship. Maybe you should quit sending mail.

I'm having a big day here.

I feel the need to type.

Boycott Discovery?

Why don't you boycott the government. Don't pay your taxes. They have fcked
you worse than Discovery.

Boycott the Oil companies.

Boycott the tobacco companies, the drug companies, the hospitals who turn
patients away. The insurance companies who charge an arm and a leg and don't
pay out.

When I hear the other 181 starters in the TDF jumping up and down, I'll
expect some changes to their livelihodd.

To you its a sporting spectacle. To them its their living. You just happen
to take your vacations around their work. I bet you had fun, but suspect you
didn't send them a tip.

You're a fan. Its their life.

Almost guaranteed that slapping himself in the face would be a clean miss
since he hasn't any head.

What year did Floyd ride for Discovery Channel? I think that your boycott
should be aimed at the principles behind Tailwind Sports.

Right, by boycotting the company that funds their company. Boycotting
Discovery Channel is indirectly boycotting Tailwind. And it's not my
boycott. It's ours. We're flexing our consumer muscles to clean up our
sport. Get on the Postal Bus brother.

USPS, Discovery whatever - Same team & management but a different
sponsor. Discovery Channel is collateral damage. It's their fault for
getting into a sport with a huge cheating / doping problem.

So, while I don't get to watch lions eating gazelles anymore I am doing
my part to clean up the sport. I also yanked out grandpa's Phonak
hearing aids and chucked them in the garbage. What have you done to
help clean up the sport?

This reminds me of the Greatest RBR Thread Ever,
(other than the ones about number-crumpling), about the
infamous Navigators sweater-throwing incident, when
Lafferty suggested that witnesses to the outrage
write letters to Wordin and his sponsor Mercury to
complain.

<http://groups.google.com/group/rec.bicycles.racing/msg/ca1c41c3158eb971>

At least Lafferty eventually had the sense to admit
he hadn't had enough coffee that morning. What's
your issue - left the testosterone patch on your
forehead too long?

Amit was calling it a "ball-patch" (I thought "sack patch" sounded better) so
maybe there was a teabagging incident gone awry. Oh, that was mean...

Boycott Discovery Channel.

Certainly not. How can we boycott them when they teach us about sex [1].
As JFT put it, THINK OF THE CHILDREN.
