RANT: "Georgia" Hincapie

I really think its time for Sherwin to stop telling us what
a great one day racer George is; at least until he wins a
few full fledged classics. He's a strong, super-domestic who
does an excellent job for his team leader which isn't what
Sherwin touts him as.

He sure earned his salary today. Hincapie, I mean.

I think that at least a part of that is this is being done
for US broadcast. The US has really lost most of the
respect for people who do a solid days work at a tough
job, they get ripped for not being #1 and it really
doesn't seem to matter how you get to #1 either. This goes
with the "First Loser" attitude. It's not about skill,
dedication, and craftsmanship here anymore. It's about
quick fix, get rich quick, flashy [censored]. I agree with you
that George has been Lance's best and most loyal
domestique and I think that without him a few of those
victories would've been a lot closer, or even have
happened. It's like trying to find a star running back in
the NFL that will actually block someone too. One of the
things that made Walter Payton, and Emmit Smith so great
was that they both would do whatever the team needed to
win and took pride in doing the tough, dirty work well,
not just the glamour [censored]. Long Live Udo Bill C

By any chance do any of you remember Phil telling us what a
great one day racer that unknown guy Davide Rebellin was
prior to 2004? But all of you knew better.

He's saying "Georgie," not Georgia.

But Rebellin had actually *won* several 1.WC and 2.HC
races before 2004. Hincapie has not come close to
Rebellin's palmarés.

Me too. Which is why I'd love to see him get in a break that
sticks to the end of one of these long flat stages and have
him in yellow for a few days. A little payback from Postal
for all his hard work in the past and present. It would be a
risky not having him around LA, but it world be cool.

I wasn't one of them, but I am a little disappointed that
Lance isn't giving his handjob hand sign in this photo.
