  1. what he did is worst than Armstrong did, and Greg Lemon should be sad to see
    all that.
    Armstrong was too snob to be liked, but Floyd is hypocrit, he said all day
    long that he was educated like a memonnite and that he didn't care about TV
    and phone, he seems different and was funny with his uggly sunglasses of his
    grandmother but now everyone is discusted because he betrayed everyone.
    So Lemon will always remain the most popular american racer in Europe

    Make that Lemond, and no I think most French people hate Lemond for
    trying to steal Hinault's jersey in 1985, stealing it in 1986 and
    stealing it from Fignon in 1989 !

    it's not true and it's only you that use the word 'steal' while everyone
    reckon he deserved to win. Lemon was stronger these years that's all. that
    have never make him hated.
    and Lemon was cool furthermore, like Stephen Roche, he wasn't snob.

    Is that why he rode for a French team in the 90's?

    because I was here, on the road or watching the tv, and I can tell you that
    Lemon has always been applauded. In fact Armstrong was perhaps the first to
    be hated, not because he was american, but because he was snob and paranoiac
    ..Anyway even Lemon and Floyd didn't like Lance, and his wife didn't stay
    longer with him, so I think this guy have some problems with people, that's
    all.

    The whole US Postal outfit was like a giant pharamacutical experiment.
    They're faces, and eyes even looked different, kind of like Barbaro's.
    Everyone knew there was something rotten in Denmark, they just couldn't
    figure out what it was.

    Ya know, you were there and I wasn't, but at the time we weren't
    hearing that the French applauded and admired Lemond. In fact, I'd read
    that when the French didn't misspell his name as you do, they would
    pronounce it LE'mond (accent first syllable) to make quite clear that
    there was nothing French about him.
    It's certainly understandable that French fans of Hinault and Fignon
    would favor them. But this is the first I'd ever heard that the French
    had any love for Lemond.

    You mean Anquetil was wrong? He thought the French hated him and he
    was French. You can also see a few second place or support French
    riders looking a bit grim and staring in the other direction when in
    the same photos with him. If you are looking for at least a mild case
    of paranoia, he was probably the star to start with. OTOH, he is also
    probably the person to put on the Livedrunk(tm) poster.

    Ignoring the segue that makes Europe equivalent to France, I've read
    some good press from europe about the Hamster. And he still lives in
    Europe, last I heard. OK, Italy, so he doesn't quite fit the Jerry
    Lewis, France=Europe comment.

    I'm guessing Armstrong is at least Lemond's equal in facility with French.

    What curious is that the French seem to dislike riders who don't appear
    to be human and capable of failure. They did not like Hinault either.
    Until he proved to be fallible and then he was quite popular.

    Which explains why Landis is popular. After the blow up he appeared very
    human.
