Eddy Merckx's Head

[Steel4Ever]

Does Eddy have an unusually BIG head?!?

I'm not talkin' 'bout ego, but like an actual size L noggin.

My brother and I met Eddy (and son) a few years ago and had a pic taken etc. I was looking at the pic the other day and wow!, compared to our heads, Eddy's is a planet!

Anyone concur?

No....just average sized melon -- at least that's what the tag on my sweatband says!

Okay...just so y'all don't think I'm making this up...I loaded the pic onto the compy -- take a look and see for yourself how HUGE Eddy's head is compared to mine!!!

He never had cancer, least that's what he says.

Regardless, I met him in the early 00's.
Attached pic is from '03 (some Brit hillclimber).

See....B I G ! ! !

I'll just never understand how athletes who were once the best, like Merckx or LeMond can let themselves get so fat. It's crazy.

You start eating and drinking all the things that you didn't when you were racing, and lots of the time you don't have the inclination to go out and ride anymore. Please don't ask me how I know.

Woah!!! When did Eddy meet Harry Potter??

Is he gonna be in the next movie??

That would be awesome!

Eddy doesn't have a big hayud, you're just a pinhead!

Ummmm....either this is the dumbest most irrelevant thread ever to get 10 or more responses or are you trying to insinuate that Merckx is like Barry Bonds, whose head physically grew to some outrageous size from PED use?

I am hoping that you are not going the second route. But every thread on these boards has some sort of ped angle.

And the photo looks just a tad p'shopped for me to trust it. Not saying it is, just saying it could be.

Jealous that YOU didn't think of it first?

...or are you trying to insinuate that Merckx is like Barry Bonds, whose head physically grew to some outrageous size from PED use?

No idea what the hell PED is, so I GOOGLIED it:

Kinda makes me want to barf. And I have no idea why either Eddy or Bonds would use one.

Yes, one of them was (duh!) -- but all other photos are 100% authentic.

Just sayin'....he might have a big head! Geez!

I dunno, his hands look proportionate to his head. He's a big guy.

 

[Steel4Ever]

big

He doesn't seem to have neck, which doesn't help.
