I don't get why all of you are so upset. It's hilarious, just think about it.

Contador took at least 12 million of his money, you think contador gives a ***?

Tinkov just realised he's been played as a fool, so he's mad. Same with Riis stuff.

That doesn't make his comments more acceptable.

Who cares, why should we act all high and mighty about morality?

Discuss that in a left party convention.

This forum isn't the right place for that, winning and money counts here. Morality is something that you use when it benefits you. Just based on your posts here fleur, I can question your morality so i don't think you should judge over others anyways.

I do question why Contador still doesn't have any kids which is cycling relevant of course, i kinda wanna be alive when his kid wins the tour.

None of you should feel bad for Contador anyways, he chose tinkoff for money. He knew the man, as he should accept the consequences like a real man which he did by not replying to him. That's class but who am i :p

There are some norms and rules people adhere to when living in society. It's part of the contract. Spare me the reddit nihilism. It's about elementary respect and not being a complete jerkoff. Unfortunately more and more do people seem to stay indifferent to the abuse of others.

on one hand tinkov really made a beast of himself in that interview, on the other hand, it's worth mentioning that all contador beaters and offenders 'surprisingly' were very bad blokes. schleck, armstrong, bryuneel, froome, quintana, wellens, tinkov.. it's pretty much impossible to outdo or hurt bertie and stay a good guy.

Send everyone with a darker skin color than me to camps!! Who cares about morality :eek:

It's one thing for Tinkov to beat Contador up for not winning enough races, it's another to abuse him for his personality and blab about things that are probably private matters. The first is sort of acceptable because Contador is employed to get results, the latter is disgusting and shows a major lack of class and respect. Tinkov is a grade A a-hole.

Do you have any point you want to make beside the one you always make here?

Clearly contador didnt care when he extended his contract in 2015 so its hilarious to feel bad for him now
It's hilarious to feel bad for someone who's humiliated, disrespected and verbally abused by his boss?

That's an entirely different matter. If someone had the opportunity to get out of an abusive relationship but didn't, does that excuse the abuser and make the abuse any less bad?

Besides fleur, you're doing it again. Treating Contador like your 5 old year kid. Tinkoff just said some words on social media, Contador has a strong character, he doesn't give a ***.

Again, does that make the abuse less bad and Oleg less of a tw/at? Even if Contador can handle the abuse and doesn't care very much, does he deserve it?

Does Tinkoff deserve to be lied to by Contador about him being sick so he can't start in Lombardia?

He always paid Contador didn't he?

You can do it both ways.

And once again, Contador know what he signed up for but he preferred the money instead of humane team owner. That's his choice, so no one should whine about the expected consequences

The way Contador responded with the pic of him with the shirt open and the smile.

That's how you respond, no crying. That's class

I don't see how some of the riders that you mention are considered "very bad blokes". What are you talking about? :confused:

Dacooley is a bad troll. He's not intelligent enough to come up with some good trolling.

He's trying to be a cool guy making fun of Contador fans, hence his name.
