put MAtti Breschel in Hospital at West Flanders, and Guidi in hospital in 98 Denmark Rundt

Still not equal to a broken hip. Of cause the recklessness of the sprint isn't directly proportional to the injuries caused. That's mainly a question of luck.

It was not a structural failure of Cav's wheel

I already called Cav an A$$hole,F*cking C*nt and similar adjectives that his persona fits in, but I start to believe that, aside from his stupid maneuvers in the final metres, "his front Wheel" sort of fractured, causing him to loose balance & fall-- this video-unlike the ones I've seen, has made me changed my mind a bit....

PS: Cavendish still an A$$hole & a F*cking C*nt regardless:D

do all you can then SunTzu. buy a ticket and take it to his grill and let us watch it on tv cuz that's alot of hate to type out. is it personal?

i'd pay to see all the guys posting up on Cavendish to show up on his grill. i don't know anything about his racing habits but when we start callin a guy out from hate you have to take care of it up close and personal otherwise we sound like 6yr olds on a playground.

No he isn't. He's that much out of form that he's riding like he's new to road sprinting - a rookie so to speak.

Yeah!! but he is not a rookie fvcking idiot, he is proving to be a complete & well versed *** of the grand order of Knobs. Then he is reported to have spat on Haussler, how stupid can you get. I thought that when you screw up you admit your guilt & appeal to your peers forgiveness. This approach has got me off quite a few speeding tickets. My guess is that Cav would start swinging at the cop who would dare pull him up.

I wish guys like you would actually get out of your hateboy world occasionally.

Maybe you have never noticed but sprinting is actually a risky business and sometimes crashes happen. If you actually tried to be a teeny bit objective you would see that both guys moved across not just one of them. It's a fact of sprinting life that sometimes sh!t happens, your pick yourself up and move on.

I guess news on the LA front was a bit quiet hence the switch to slagging off Cav.:rolleyes:

Don't worry about me, I'm not a hateboy and I get out plenty...

As far as sprinting goes, yes very risky especially when a racer has to win "everytime he throws his leg over the bike." The difference this time is that he was throwing someone else's leg "over the bike," not his.
As far as objective goes, did he not track to the left or what that my misjudged subjectivism? And if that is indeed the case, who deviated from their line most?

I am not a hate boy myself but this is just one cav's many transgression's of conduct as a professional , yes a professional. I have been known to do a bit of sitting on & getting the win in the last 100m myself, if you don't like it drop me before the line.
Did you note that Cav has been reported to have spat at Haussler????.
I have just gone through the vids in slo mo & cav moved across a huge amount & lost/drove his front wheel right under Hausslers
 
Perhaps this whole thing can get summed up by 2 points

1 - Cav has been penalized, so the race officials think he was at fault

2 - His 'coworkers' staged a protest about him and his behaviours the next day.

Not too many folks have had the infamy of being formally and informally sanctioned as a result of riding like a tool. :p

I don't know what it means to "show up on his grill" but yes, the venom being spouted is personal. I think the more conscientious on the forum and public at large recognize this.

That being said, it is personal for a reason.

Boy Racer became Boy I Just Don't Like This Guy.

Sure it's easy to sit on my computer chair and post about Cav's transgressions but c'est la vie pour une celebre. Live by the spotlight die by the spotlight.

phlatties means "all up in his grill" - not on his grill. Although the "on" does make for interesting visuals...

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=all up in my grill

It basically means - to say it to his face.

can somebody post a "cav threads are dead" thread? damn, even the groms on pinkbike know when to let it go. so, since I'm new 'round these parts where's the next best place for cyberwhine? the lance thread? doping? got any threads about podium hotties with pics?
 
And there are plenty of UK fanboys who think that Frodo never does anything wrong.

I wonder what it would take for Frodo to get blamed by CN and the fanboys?

If he'd gone up and punched HH in the face I am sure the likes of Jamesque would be blaming HH for putting his face in the way of the Hobbit's fist.

some Frodo fanboy said:
'It's HH's fault he got punched, his face should never have been there in the first place. If you watch the slow mo you can see how HH moves his head towards Frodo's fist. Therefore it is 70&#37]

Did you ask the 13 thousand forum members that or did you just make it up?

Do the Commissaires who relegated and fined Cav for his behavior 'hate' Cav to?

I have actually supported Cav in the past - especially in some of his comments.
He was at fault for the crash - he should have apologized - his lack of apology makes it very easy for him not to have respect from his peer's or any fan's.

Am I from the UK yes. Am I a `fanboy' no, I don't support anyone now on the basis that I'm going to be disappointed by them at some point. Have I seen dozens of crashes in bunch sprints over the last 30+ years caused by riders from Belgium, Italy, Germany, Australia, UK etc yes. Did I then pour vitriol over these riders later no. If Cavendish now makes a habit of wiping people out in sprints then I think we can justifiably have a go at him.

Finally my impression is that UK people aren't that patriotic towards their own sportspeople, we can have two F1 world champions in succession and still lots of UK F1 fans will root for Alonso.

Sorry, I should have re-phrased that. The posters here never get tired of hating full stop.

Could you just clarify your comments.

Are you saying that because I don't support Cav in this incidence I am now a 'hater'? And so is everybody else on this forum?

Nope.

What I am saying is that there seem to be plenty of posters on this board who aren't interested in discussion or debate of any kind, and just come here to spew invective against riders they don't like and troll.
