Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

[yaf]

I sincerely hope that the fisherman is not seriously threatened and that he will be at 100% for the Tour so that the fight will be interesting, nobody wants a repeat of Flanders 2024

Even if todays crash makes the giro tour double easier for pogi and pogi will probably wont like to win it that way i really hope jonas wont lose his cycling career by the crash🙏😟

Come on Rick, a luck merchant?? Pogi has had one serious crash, and so has Vingegaard now. But it would be kinda odd to call Vingegaard a luck merchant a few hours after laying in a ditch unable to move.

This season is cursed. Fingers crossed for him!! Liege is a very tricky race and so is the Giro. Just stay on your bike Tadej!

 

[topcat]

And people say I'm a troll when I call him a luck merchant

You're not a troll but you're mixing frogs with grandmas with that post.

the biggest materialist among all cyclists is Jay Vine, he only looks at the money, everything through money, for him cycling is pure business without a trace of passion. he loves what about Pog at the Giro because of the prize fund for the winner because Pog always gives up the prize cake when he wins grand Tour and it is divided among 7 riders and a small part gets the staff, so it is not small money when Pog wins the Giro, together with a couple of shirts and a stage, approx. 500,000 is divided into 7 parts, it is an understatement to say that such a person never get along well with Pog in anything, because one is driven by money and the other by pure passion for bikes

That's also my impression. When he won the first Vuelta stage and he was asked what he thought about it, his first answer was 'prize money'.

But okay, he had a horrible accident yesterday, so I'll stop here.

This was actually on point. I've even heard him admit it in an interview.

Pogacar probably doesn't even care about the money RCS will give to him.

to see now the main moderator @Armchair cyclist

of this forum, will they react when I am offended and I only presented verified information about Vine and that was before the accident or warnings are valid only for @mou

Maybe don't call people 'lower beings' if you want to occupy the moral high ground...

[Salvarani]

You will get a vacation for this. We have no say. Me again probably also.

In fairness, I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing in and of itself. He just treats it like a profession rather than a passion, and you're bound to have a few of those in any professional sport. Pro cycling is a fairly brutal career (time away from friends/family, fairly dangerous, not crazy high pay), so I won't judge him for seeing it as a job and not much else.

I also don't see why it means he doesn't get along with Pogacar, as long as he's professional and a good person I don't think it's a fundamental different in values or anything.

Sure, but it certainly is not going to win him fans, and coupled with the rudeness he has demonstrated multiple times against interviewers, I think it's fair to say that it's not a surprise if he doesn't gel too smoothly with everyone on the team.

he is not close to anyone in the team, I can confirm that

Tbf, I didn't know about the rudeness. That would make sense.

democracy is the worst thing ever invented because in a democracy 50 trolls without school and with 3 teeth in their heads and with an IQ of room temperature on winter days win and outvote 20 PhDs, good, honest people who work for the common good and that's your democracy brought to this thread, unfortunately there are more of the first mentioned than the second mentioned and they rule here

Bro, who are you talking to, I don‘t see any other posters saying anything against Pogačar, it‘s just you, don quixote

 

[QueenStagiaire]

did you take an IQ test before coming to this thread? and I thought the answer was: NO

I took an IQ test when I was four or five years old which was before I came to this thread.

Another term I learned today is luck merchant. I can’t look it up as there is a role playing game by the same name dominating google search
