This stuff is why I Love Cycling
Seriously, doesn't anybody else get tired of the slick professionalism of other, "organized" sports?. Andy says this, then JB says that, then Chris can't ride so he tells the world (the very small cycling world), then Frank won't do this, and then Andy Can't go to the Big, so CH is back and Jakob makes announcements..the UCI chimes in, and on and on, and lawsuits, investigations in the US, in Italy, crooked Spanish doctors everywhere.. Guys get banned, then get un-banned. Its like a soap opera circus on two wheels.
For a sport with a strict "code of silence" people sure talk a lot.
Its all so, un-professional, so disorganized.... so refreshing compared to MLB, and NBA and NFL and NHL and on and on.
Let Loose the Lions! Long Live the Chaos!
