So? They're just trying to maximise their own chances of winning.

Dude, you are going to have to be high on something to bear
looking at that crazy Tinkoff kit for more than a few seconds
at a time. It is making my eyes cross. I also cannot figure
out the heraldic symbols on the coat of arms on the team
car. The bottom half of the shield is a unicorn rampant, OK,
but the top half appears to show the hand of God emerging
from a cloud and brandishing a chicken drumstick. WTF?

Also, isn't this team basically financed by a Russian bank?
I'm _sure_ it's all on the up-and-up.

Sure, the point is if you don't work (for whatever reason) you will be
harassed or intimidated into working.

I wonder if Bettini ever harassed or intimidated Backstedt by threatening
to headbutt him with his technicolour helmet.

Dumbasses get harassed or intimidated into working. Eternal
domestiques always work. winners feign inability. Champions are just
stronger and win despite working.

dumbass, i was referring to local races (like the one where the lance
comment happened). having never ridden in the protour i imagine there's
some similarity, but there's more teamwork and more sense of riders
playing roles.

Comes as no surprise to me that God favors KFC. If man was made in God's
image, He is most likely a Master's Fatty.

The unicorn represents the fairy tale that is Hamilton's doping defense.

Then maybe it's not a unicorn at all. Maybe it's a chimera.

Shouldn't that be three out of three? Carphedon, cocaine, and blood.

Click the link for Boyer's aliases.

Funny thing is, for a guy whose name was printed differently in every
race report I ever read (Jon, John Jonathan, Jock, Jacques, Jack,
etc.), his aliases are not any of those, but Jonathan Swift or Jonathan
Dyer. Huh.

What struck me was how old those guys are. By the time the
season starts Commesso will be 32, Hondo 33 (pretty old for
sprinters), and Tyler will be 35.

Guys that were much better Grand Tour riders than Tyler were
completely out of the picture by that age. At 35 Rominger
was doing well to pick up a Vuelta KOM jersey and Tyler will
never be as good as Rominger.

Dumbass -

Yeah, suspensions don't make you any younger.

As for old age and sprinters, I have always thought sprinters age
better than other riders.

Is Rogaine on the banned list?

But Tyler is tanned, rested and ready.

LANCE is six months younger than Tyler and he's already retired.
On the other hand, LANCE won a tour at 33 going on 34, by which
age Merckx, Hinault and Indurain were tending their gardens.
It's creeping Masters-ism: people are staying active longer now,
y'know. You just gotta get regular exercise and keep drinking
your orange juice.
