    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    Yeah, this is where I am at too. I love to watch cycling, and I get that everyone is doping to some degree. But what's going on with Pogacar is arguably way worse than the Armstrong era. I'm not going to waste 3-4 hours a day for 2-3 weeks, watching a farcical "competition" where Pog rockets...

    Aside from the over the top doping, Pog also strikes me as an egomaniac. He's not just content winning everything, he has to win it by ridiculous margins. Remember when JV won the two TdFs, both times Pog made a "joking" attack on him in the final stage, like he couldn't stand to be out of the...

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    The only hope now is someone younger comes up with 10 times the doping that Pogocar is doing, so races can be competitive again. I'm actually surprised that Pog doesn't ride the Giro, TdF, and Vuelta every year. Does anyone doubt he would easily win all three, plus all the monuments? At some...

    Cycling on USA TVs, desktops, laptops, and handheld devices

    This NBC Peacock coverage is abject sh-t this TdF. Last year, they had a European commercial free feed available for replay, and I could watch almost the entire race at night, fast forwarding through some dull stretches. I'd watch until the breakaways was established, then fast forward so I...

    Mechanical doping is beyond ridiculous. It would be so obvious and easy to detect, and such a death sentence to the rider and team if caught. I guarantee no team is doing anything sketchy with regards to mechanics. It's easier to dope Pogacar up to his gills, because apparently it's...

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    Two things... 1) Why does the UCI want races turned into a complete farce by ignoring obvious doping? Pogacar deters me from watching. If it's a mountain stage and he's in it, I check the results ahead of time. 99 times out of 100 (unless Vingegaard is in it), Pogacar wins by destroying...

    My question is why can't anti-doping catch Pogacar? What's missing in the science? What's the current method that eludes anti-doping checks?

    Are you making a hypothetical statistical musing, or are you actually proposing that Pogacar might not be the most massive doper in the history of pro cycling? I need to know whether to LOL or not.

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    Pogacar's doping annoys the hell out of me because of the ridiculous nature of his win on Planche des Belles Filles. Roglic had a huge time advantage going into that (yes, I know Roglic was doping too). At the end of that TT, Roglic looked physically dead, like he needed medical assistance...

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    Pogacar is going to run away with this TdF worse than Froome ever did. Just look at the guy. He's mysteriously added 20 pounds of pure muscle to his upper body. He used to be scrawny, back when he was dominating, and now this year, his shoulders look like a middle linebacker. His steroid use...

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    People talk about Vingegaard like he dominated Pogocar at the last TdF, when it fact, JV basically jumped TP in one race when TP had an uncharacteristic bad day, got a few seconds lead, then played defense and held on to it. Every other race before and since, TP destroys the entire peloton...

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    I see Tadej has vastly ramped up his doping regimen. He blows by everyone today, including Vingegaard, to catch up to Gaudu. Then the announcers are talking about how exhausted Tadej must be, and in the last 500m, he sprints away, uphill, practically passing the motorbikes in the process...

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    Roglic was outdoping the peloton, so Pogocar outdoped him to win the TdF with that ridiculous performance on Planche de Belles Filles. This year, WVA and JV outdoped Pogocar. Plus the UAE team was total crap compared to Jumbo Visma. On an individual level, I thought it was cheesy for Roglic...

    Jonas Vingegaard: Something is Rotten

    I think at this point, it's safest to assume that all the top riders are doping. Pog and JV are playing another sport from the rest of the GC riders. Then you have WVA, who did an absolutely insane pull yesterday, eventually riding away from Pog, after killing himself for hours pulling the...

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    I wonder the same thing. If you're a GC guy at another team, why would you ever want to enter a race where Pogocar has entered? It seems like a massive waste of time and energy. If you watch the starting line at the stages in the TdF this year, I've noticed that pretty much no one is talking...
