Freire: tour is the most boring race of the year

Another interesting tidbit from the Freire interview:

Out of curiousity where is the quote from? Nusport magazine?

Best moment of the Tour de France last year was seeing Evans cry and his dreams shattered.

The fact that you find pleasure in seeing someone fail shows what little character you have. I feel sorry for you.

Sorry ACF but this comes to mind.

Thank you. I am struggling to type I am that excited.

Back on topic, if Contador doesn't ride, I see Gesink doing a top 3.

Failing a drug test and failing to acheive something are two very different things. Totally different.

To put my own spin on some advice Mambo handed out to a someone in the clinic:
Take the shovel out of that hole you are digging, ACF, before it gets any bigger.

BOTH statements are exactly the same. A poster's joy at a rider's demise. The method is irrelevant, since it's about the poster's state of mind.

A few months ago, another Australian poster mentioned that they derive no greater pleasure than to see British people fail.

I criticised this approach on a similar basis to your criticism above, especially considering that they were loving seeing people they may not know anything of fail, at least you have seen enough of Contador to make a decision about him. I said "if all Australians were like that (ie this other poster, not yourself), then I'm glad I've never been".

You defended the poster and reported my post.
