This guy does the world's worst interviews. Please stop embarrassing American cyclists by interviewing this tree huggin' lunatic and consistent 3 time 2nd place finisher of the Amgen ToC. He is a great time trial rider, but please keep him away from the after race interviews.

DZ cracks me up. Infinitely more interesting than the platitudes of Hincapie or Bottle.

Now, is there one interview in particular that we're talking about here?
Like, please?
I'm getting curious

Mark Cavendish: It's time to work on your interviews.
Dave Zabriskie: My interviews? What do I gotta do?
Mark Cavendish: You're gonna have to learn your clichés. You're gonna have to study them, you're gonna have to know them. They're your friends. Write this down: "We gotta play it one day at a time."
Dave Zabriskie: Got to play... it's pretty boring.
Mark Cavendish: 'Course it's boring, that's the point. Write it down.

Link maybe or something so I can know what you're talking about?
 
I think there is room for a compromise here.

1. Interview Z after every race.
2. If some does not like his interviews, then they will not be forced to watch.
3. Catharge should be destroyed.

Now everybody hugs. :)
