True. And not everybody is like you. Dedicating 300 words in one post to Greg LeMond and an entire website about Greg LeMond.
Might be better or the discussion is continued with someone a little more objective than a fan.
That's your definition of free speech, then ? How "ethical" of you. If I lack credibility so much, why bother ?
Being inspired by someone doesn't mean you're blind or dumb.
As stated before, I'm just offering my knowledge of who Greg actually is, or how I see him. I might be wrong but everyone is entitled to his opinion.
I like the guy. You don't like the guy. Both our voices count. This is a forum, after all.
In all seriousness, Hog, and I mean to bury the hatchet : I used to value your opinion (yours and those of many others here) before I joined the forum. I didn't join in before because I really looked up to you guys for many things and I thought you knew a lot more about a great deal of many things (edit : than me). As it turns out, I have a valid point of view on Greg LeMond for having studied him for a long time and I thought it was ok to share it.
It's not my fault if all I'm saying you interpret as "fanboy ! fanboy !". I never lied about who I am and where I come from. I inserted one link to fully express an opinion. Have you even read it ? I thought it was better than a 2 pages post. Anyway.
What I want to say to you is : not everyone has an agenda. Not everyone is trying to manipulate people for his own profit. Some people are more spontaneous and calculation free than you give them credit for.
It's ok not to convince the whole world you're right.
Peace.
