Nobody deserves to be on the podium. I have spoken.

That statement could better be refuted if ED had posted a bevy of
podium girls. Some do, in fact, deserve to be on a podium. Why they
insist on having space taken up by bike racers that could better be
used for others, I don't know. And to have a bike racer AND some guy
named Hinault using up space and only one podium girl is depraved or
deprived or something.

Yehhsss. Need some eye candy when Robbie McEwen is up
there wearing thin white tights. Technically the podium
consists of three orange crates where some emaciated
junkies spew over each other. Podium girls occupy
center stage, not the podium.
