Cycling -- dead for me

Just wanted to say that the actions of [censored] Pound and the French have totally ruined the Tour and all other Pro cycling for me, forever. I have been watching the Tour and other lesser events for more than 20 years, but I am done. At this point it does not matter to me if FL is innocent or guilty (I think he is innocent) -- I am never watching a televised cycling event again.

I'm with you, bro. It's all the fault of the French. They have secret squads of ninjas that sneak into the hotel rooms of American cyclists and dope them while they're asleep. The whole program is run by a shadowy figure named "Uncle Ron," who calls up witnesses and talks about their sexual abuse as a child.

Indeed. It is the fault of the French.

I would also like to add that the Spanish are [censored]-heads also. Their investigations involved Basso. He is an Italian. They are Spanish. Obviously a conspiracy there.

You want the truth? You can't handle the truth !

I confess, we French are the Big and Great Evil of cycling, particulary against doped riders.
Sorry , but I need to joke to feel me better after this sad night. Thanks EPO, PEDs and FFF. What is clear is Fair.

Damn the French, Damn those drug busters. I think we should have dopped tours, see who's chemist is the best, which rider gets the weirdest body growth from their "power tablets".

Yes, you might be onto something, you could make millions with new fangled cranks and bars to suit the new body parts

Cycling's not dead. Morals, ethics and self respect are certainly dead.

Yep ,them damn French so arrogant. It's like they got a different word for everything. Especially I don't like that Paris Hilton person. She has got to be French with a name like Paris.
The only redemption is that they got a good way of kissing, and hell I bet they stole the idea from the Italians and just called it French Kissing. You know them Italian girls are pretty wild,I hear.
Yep,they are not to be trusted cause you never ever really know what they are saying when they talk.
That Greg Lemond is supposed to be American but no real American is named
LE-Mond.
Just another French covert spy,I suspect.

Yep, cycling is not dead but it sure has a bad case of the "[censored]' right now and could use a good enima to finish cleaning it out. 🙄

So are you changing bike frames? We need to know since those of us that have no real lives are so curious the suspense is driving us into a slobbering frenzy.
If I don't find out soon I am gonna start drinking. 😄

Yep the Frency are responsible. They have great fries though...

Cycling isn't dead - it has been transformed into the latest tabloid entertainment. Right up there with Britney Spears and Katie Couric.

Just made the front page of the CNN website, with a link to a Time story. Oh great... before, I was fed up with any form of pro cycling. Now, I'm almost embaressed to be seen on a bike.

I hate the French too. Damn frogs. I wish they were black so I could really rail against them. Maybe even use the n-word.

Its not a matter of whether or not these cyclists are on drugs, its a matter of whether or not they are being prosecuted fairly. You cant just plant evidence in a murder trial, just like the LNND Lab cannot use unfair, botched testing protocol. There needs to be no resonable doubt, which there is, everywhere in the Landis case.

I believe the only way to solve cycling's drug problem right now is random police raids at races and every rider must sign a document allowing police to randomely search their homes and check out who they deal with in life. The nazis could monitor the many, many people in Germany way back in the 1930's, why cant athletes live under these rules?

Those Nazis sure knew how to run sporting events.
The "Tour de Europe" was a resounding success.
