Speaking of body fat..... it's been a lovely day out there in Twitter land.... :cool:

Just need Swart to then up tell us all "just needed to lose the fat" :rolleyes:

qqv2m9.jpg

Most TdF winners are at 6% body fat.

Swart again proven to be untrustworthy. Defending Froome against known knowledge. Lying.

So Froome is twice as fat as LtD?

CTQ is 100% right about Digger's comment on Cound's alleged Armstrong forum. If you can't see that, you're too biased and more interested in scoring points than in honest discussion.

Digger makes mistakes like this sometimes (i've tried to pm him a few times on similar occasions).

But I don't see how the distinction between her posting pro Lance love on a forum (while trolling and sending abuse to anti doping people), and her running a pro Lance forum, should overshadow the overall point.

Which is she was trolling people who didn't believe in Lance, and now like Ligget and Wiggins and Millar and Kirby and all the other level 1 scumbags is acting like it never happened and of course not apologizing for it.

So yeah, "*** digger" if it means that much to you. But he's not the one running a fraudulent to the core propaganda campaign for cycling's newest doped up terminator.

Bingo! I kinda thought it was obvious enough that it didn't need stating, but you did it perfectly.

So then acknowledge the inaccuracy and move on instead of digging in and choosing this wrong spot is where you make your stand. Call Cound out on the meaty stuff, don't get distracted with BS. I don't mind Digger, he's 100% not the problem with cycling and "**** Digger" means absolutely nothing to me, thank you very much. That kind of "picking sides" talk only proves my point.

edit: the issue here is not Digger getting something factually wrong, the issue here is people like hog running with it uncritically and then attacking people for pointing out Digger got something factually wrong.

dont think you understood my post. I meant a casual "*** digger", not suggesting you are suddenly "picking sides" for Sky and against him.

Im definately not the one picking sides, I have always aknowledged many on the anti Sky side run with nonsense.
And my point is precisely that im not siding with them.

But despite that we have to aknowledge that whatever minor liberties the anti Sky side occasionally make, it pails in comparison to what the real bad guys who continue to defend them, do on a daily basis.

Digger literally is a saint when you compare him to someone like Walsh or Cound or Millar. Id probably find way more to disagree with him about then agree with him about but you just cant compare someone who attempts to follow some sort of moral code, with these garbage humans.

Nice try ...

Slow day at BikeRadar? :cool:

I know who you think I am but I aint him, sorry to disappoint. I don't post on bike radar and never have. If everything else you say is as inaccurate as that well ;)

I dont know anything about you and very little about this other website other than that its demography for this subject is limited almost entirely to one nationality and apparently constantly jealous of the clinic.

But I will point out that the people you tend to support are ones that have proven that they have no issue with lying time and again.

I would question then, if you support such people, and continue to ignore the fact that they do it, aren't you therefore tacitly aknowledging that you yourself dont see anything wrong with lying and would do it yourself. For example that you would write "I don't post on a forum and never have" even if that weren't true?

Again not questioning your identity and dont care if you post on smaller forums or not, but just wanted to understand how you view lying as an action.

Should also point out that Digger's post does not actually mean she wasn't running a pro Lance forum. I've always understood that to be the case; not sure why. Neither do I have evidence for it. But I certainly wouldn't trust her denials as evidence either.

Whatever, as bottom line is that she was clearly attempting to revise her support for Lance following her nasty comments. The fact that she is still posting what are frankly fairly unpleasant tweets, although as far as I can see, there has been no real provocation, speaks volumes. I cannot think anyone at Sky or associated with CF would be very happy about it.

knock yourself out.

As for the rest who say this tweet shows she wasn't being dishonest - she is slamming lance as a scumbag yet she was a huge fan. Whether it's Alberto, Vino or lance, she has a complicated affinity for known dopers. Feel free to get bogged down on semantics. She said it was 'fake news'. The internet saw the reality.

There's a couple of people here who have great info - the rest are just trying to squeeze others for gossip. Knock yourselves out.

i think digger is fighting the good fight , i will tell him to keep going , don't listen froome fan of people that don't want to use brain and stay blind , i will support , in this case we just saw that M.Cound is a liar a proven liar so don't know where digger report false thing ,
 
So someone has 11,000 twitter followers - It means nothing in the scheme of things when you can purchase twitter followers - One can be good at reading the 'tea leaves' but the occasional 'cool' tweet,is is a far cry from earth shattering news - I look at the whole package -When I see the childish and infantile replies to digger's tweets which he allows to be publically displayed makes me dismayed - And baiting the relatives of cyclists ( why they are on twitter is another matter ) is silly at best.

Who cares whether Cound/Froome has an affinity or hatred for dopers - All I see is two silly people being involved in a senseless spat on twitter, which unfortunately and unnecessaily spills over to this part of the forum.

Why would the wife of a clean rider, beaten by these same dopers, like dopers so much...

I gotta know. What's the gist of "the stuff that's yet to get out"? You, in general. Like "team sponsored motors", or "spouses that run the drug program".
