Hahahahahahahahha I love him :D Saxobank is the most awesome team ever :D

So sad... I'd rather listen to what idiots like Marc Coucke or Andy Rihs have to say than Tinkov. At least they've got their teams and points sorted out. And seriously who knows even one of those Danish riders on Saxo except CAS. They're horrible as well :D

Sure, but there one minor detail you have overlooked: that's how the sport has been run for many years and it continues to be run like that. :eek:

yes but i'd do even better. i'd never ban or blacklist any rider doesn't matter who he is. only if he'd be racist or something or if he'd be a murderer. otherwise i would let them race
sometimes i think at the huge amounts of cycling madness entertainment we lost with all these stupid bans. it's almost a crime what they did to the viewers.

So if I understand right, this statement "Let's have entertainment at all cost, anything goes" is what you meant?

Dude should learn to ride up a hill before saying anything. How does he make cycling entertaining? Boring dude who can't do anything but sprint. Yea he has a point but he ain't gonna make cycling entertaining. Only more boring.

How does he care for the sake of cycling when he drops at a hill of 2%? And then random people see his paycheck. What a great rides he must be are they prob thinking:rolleyes:

He actually benefits from all this. 98% of the people who watch the tour watch it only for GC. But obviously you need some flat stages. Without the GC riders almost nobody would ****ing watch it. It's because of the likes of Contador that Kittel has such a hugh paycheck. STFU dude

Contador at 70 will still be a better climber than him. And i'm not trolling here, real talk.

So you can only comment on serious matters in your sport if your a Contador-like attacking rider, give me a break :rolleyes:. This issue isn't about making sure cycling is entertaining, it's about making sure it is a fair and equal sport. No matter how much entertainment a rider provides, it doesn't excuse them from any wrongdoing.

And by the way, This is coming from someone who doesn't think Contador should have been banned.

Actually, It's more like knee jerk comentary from the rider who obviously hasn't read the transcript of what was said.

I think his comment there is a good reply to the attitude that riders should be excused from any wrongdoing as long as they provide us with exciting races.

Indeed it would be, but that's not what was said by the guy he was tweeting too.

This isn't the first time kittel has responded like this without actually having a clue what was said in full.

So you believe he did do the d-thing and you believe the entertainment he brings to the sport shouldn't excuse him from any wrongdoing but you do think he shouldn't have been banned :rolleyes:

Did he not say that Saxo should get a WT licence because Contador alone is a much better rider than all those lame, pathetic schmucks at Argos?
