    Giving aways stage wins

    Gregod, pretending that there was some sort of peleton-issued comeuppance for Armstong's "attacking" Contador in 2009 is pretty ridiculous. He sat midpack because Armstrong just didn't have elite legs anymore. I actually think this year simply shows that Berto is finally learning how to be a...

    Enough Armchair Lance Bashing!

    Your initial post on the first page where you agreed that there isn't enough Lance bashing? (Odd for someone who feels we should all just worry about ourselves) Or your more substantive second post where you describe your experience racing and mention his personality while also mentioning his...

    Enough Armchair Lance Bashing!

    You should really do something about your anger management issues. All I did was point out the absurdity of telling others to worry about themselves instead of others given all your posts in this thread. Maybe you're of the "Do as I say, not as I do" camp.

    Enough Armchair Lance Bashing!

    Yet here you are, whining about alleged doping by others and how it is perceived by others...
