    What a complete waste of resources AND a damn shame to have harmed an
    admittedly ex-competitive albeit not officially retired cyclist's
    reputation!

    It's a shame and it's silly but the guy is brain dead. Not just
    brain dead in one individual incident but consistently brain dead
    over an extended period of time. And he is leaving stuff out of
    the interview and misrepresenting other stuff in order to make
    him look less brain dead. But he's extremely brain dead.

    So I guess I don't have a lot of sympathy.

  3. I disagree. This guy deserves better. He deserves better from a
    general public that blindly listens to a nazi-like organization who
    just treats everyone like a number and can't take the blinders off and
    look at the big picture.

    The more stories I see like this it makes me wonder why anyone would
    take up competitive sport anymore. People shouldn't be treated like
    this. The staple of our judicial system, innocent until proven guilty,
    has completely reversed itself now; one is now guilty of everything
    unless you can prove otherwise.

    Just sad.

    He's a dumbass bike racer. Only recently retired, or semi-retired.

    There's no such excuse for the USADA.

    Well... I then say guvmint ownership of roads is [censored] and some
    knucklehead on rbr thinks that is "ironic" because I was driving on the
    guvmint's roads, drunk or not.

    I will kick your ass Saturday in El Cajon, just for mom's reputation.

    Mortensen doesn't care about the stupid paperwork of the bureaucrats,
    or his over-and-done-with cycling career. Nothing wrong with that. He
    didn't anticipate the near term publicity consequences, which he did
    care about. In the long run it is probably good for him -- the farther
    he is driven from elite cycling, the better off he will be.

    The rider missed every chance to inform the USADA. He ignored them. He
    deserves what he gets because there is no alternative. The anti xoping
    agencies cannot accept excuses, it would be a slippery slope. Damm brutal
    cold world that is out there for the unprotected.

    Remember, [censored] Pound assures us there's enough flexibility in the

    I want to buy some stupid serum so I can become supreme leader of rbr.

    How's this for irony? The Man tells him that all he has to do is
    submit a form and The Man will go away and not bother him. That
    simple. He can't be bothered to do that. And *you* are the guy
    that defends him. Irony rocks!

    Say, do you stop at stoplights on the guvmint's roads? Like the
    rest of the sheep? Don't let me down Greg. We want to believe in
    you.

    Dumbass,

    Many states now have laws that make it clear that drunk
    driving on private property is also a DUI offense. Just
    something to keep in mind next time you are doing
    donuts on your neighbor's lawn (or mall parking lot)
    while sticking your head out the window and yelling
    "You can't touch me, jackbooted government thugs!"

    A few years ago, there was a guy living up near Santa Rosa, Calif. who was so
    adamantly anti-government that he made his own license plates to go on his car. The
    car was an ancient junker anyway, so the fees would have been negligible, so the
    cops just ignored him (well, at least on the issue of the plates).
