Go Frog-Gigging, Lance!

Thanks BL!
However, I do not see ONE SINGLE THING you actually DO for the sport.
many others here do, you merely seem to be a detractor. You CERTAINLY
come across that way; with no RBR friends I may add.

no?

A college degree is a prerequisite for running for political office?

I'm not sure the ability to breathe is a prerequisite for most City

Ken, I have to apologize for Brian here. I see I've created a monster.
he's obsessing on the boring snore thing almost as much as he's obsessing in
LANCE. Maybe he's got a sleep disorder. Or perhaps a sleeping giant, or
sleeping beauty. As far as friends goes, you might be wrong. He could be
another friend of Bill's.

It'll take more than that to blunt the damning assay of rbr pundits. As
a complete [censored], Lafferty chose a profession where this handicap
is/was advantageous. Lafferty is baffled by the obvious yet possesses a
complete understanding of the nonexistent. He shouldn't be trusted with
anything more complicated than twist top bottles or female genitalia. To
say he knows nothing is to give him credit for intelligence vastly
beyond his demonstrated capacities. A lesser mentality wouldn't have the
wattage to breath.

The prospect of a possible comeback overshadowed news of Armstrong's engagement
to rock star Sheryl Crow. No wedding date has been set, although it is likely to
be a spring ceremony.

I'm tired of hearing about Lance Armstrong and his engagement and now
his decision to do another TdF to end the drug rumors. I don't think
Lance is going to go quietly into any goodnight. He is happy in the
spotlight if you ask me, and he intends to stay there. I wish he
would just get married and get involved in some much needed causes to
benefit the United States. Or run for political office or something.
In the whole scheme of things, who the heck cares who he is marrying,
why he is marrying her and what the French think about him. Why
doesn't he just move on into a new phase of his life. Go out in a
blaze of glory.
Maggie

You and I know how to manage change, but guess what? Armstrong does not.

The fact that Armstrong is that one-in-a-million perfect confluence of
athlete and sport is galling to the haters, who simply can't accept
that they (or their national favorites) will never be as good as he is

Who's the hater, when it only take only one magazine article to turn
Armstrong from someone who loves the country of the TdF into someone
only willing to "[censored] the French".
It can only show the hypocrite he is, the truth is there: he's only
running the most famous race for his fame, and deep inside he's just a
selfish hater.

He's said for years it was a "love-hate" relationship with the French, so
where's the hypocrisy?

I only hate Football and NASCAR, moron! I love soccer. European love
soccer.
Franch love soccer. Italian love soccer. Brit love soccer.

You wanna talk about White Penis Power on Football and NASCAR???

I'm not sure thrive is a right word. Poisoning is a right world.

Ask what did Lance Armstrong done to public? Nothing. He only appeared
in commerical magazine for drug companay by receiving ton of money
while stupid people got poisoned with Lance's fame.

Dumbass!. TdF is a french race. He has to love TdF.

Lance is making more news as a cancer survivor and as Mr. Sheryl than
he is as a cyclist nowadays. Really. Whenever he is in the news, it
is about his upcoming marriage, his supposed drug use, and the way he
beat cancer. I very rarely see anything about his training or anything
related to his training or anything bicycle related. Its Sheryl, drugs,
will he run for politics, why the French hate him, did he use drugs,
did he get captured by aliens who gave him super human strength and all
that other tabloid [censored].

So why do you blame Lance for the actions of the tabloid press?

He was talking about the French media, not the French in general.

Errrrr, would you consider yourself a "selfish hater" if a particular
country's media spent the better part of a decade making unsupportable
claims about your drug use? Would you be a "selfish hater" if you
thought pissing off that country's media would be fun?

Mickey - Armstrong is a small, seasonal aberration in our press. Maybe on
this forum, there is more interest. The French are much more politically
oriented, and the only relationship Armstrong has is that he brings
tourists. So a footnote in the Economics sections.

Don't know - but certainly, inelegant.

Armstrong considering comeback to rile French

So what's with the hate-on for the French that I'm seeing in a bunch of
the cycling newsgroups? I've cycled in France, and I can tell you I've
never met a nicer bunch of people - especially on the roads. As far as
cycling goes, there's a population that respects cycling as an activity
and as a means of transportation. Better than here in North America where
we get shouted down by motorists on a regular basis.
