This is a bad example because his poor record in championships is exactly why LeBron is not in the goat convo. He's more like the Valverde of hoopers.Bill Russell GOAT 11 championships !!! Jordan who , Lebron who ?
🤔b/c no one has evolved from being human to alien in just a year.
Anyone who thinks mou was not sent by pog is kind of foolish i guessImagine if there was no mou to tell earlier in the year what was about to happen during the year, i guess pogi would have been under so much scrutiny from the media & the peleton b/c no one has evolved from being human to alien in just a year.
No. This one is better.The best line from the season is when Pidcock said it felt like he was in the grupetto after Pogi attacked.
Jonas on Remcos wheel, "Remco, when will you attack?".No. This one is better.
Tadej Pogacar: "I can see your ass."
Remco Evenepoel: "I would like to see more of yours and not from 500 meters away."
We’ll see this year how much influence the great @mou philosophy plays out as the season goes by. He showed up in the forum with the goods last winter, that’s certainAnyone who thinks mou was not sent by pog is kind of foolish i guess
At worst he is 2nd best in history.This is a bad example because his poor record in championships is exactly why LeBron is not in the goat convo. He's more like the Valverde of hoopers.
At least he is bad at something
I don't think that kind of haircut (or its severity) is flattering on anyone, where's a helmet when you need it?At least he is bad at something
It's obvious Pogi is better than Merckx. Only difference that makes Merckx the GOAT (yet) is his palmares compared to Pogacar. Pogacar winning all GTs (and 5 Tours) and monuments is enough to change this paradigm.
He said he will probably race 2 GTs in the next couple of years. Can't wait for another triple crown in 2026
Its ironic how people consider merckx a goat and armstrong a froud when both actually got caught doping multiple times in their career with only the later getting the stick for his behavior to cover up his sh**😖 If it wasn't for his bad attitudes towards some riders we would've still considered him the greatest GT rider with 7 consecutive tdf wins🤭. Even if i'm a die hard pogi fan i wouldn't even mention his name amongst the best if he got caught doping 3 times as merckx was.It's obvious Pogi is better than Merckx.

Pogacar succeeded in some races because other riders chose not to take him on directly. Not all events but the Giro was a sad promenade behind him. The Tour was a closer reality for about 2 weeks and then everyone settled into their petty fights for the lower placings. So, yes; if they do that in 2025 the results could be the same.If Pogacar rides like he did this year, he does what he wants regardless of what the others do.
To be fair, though, 'doping before 1989' =/= 'doping after 1989'.Its ironic how people consider merckx a goat and armstrong a froud when both actually got caught doping multiple times in their career with only the later getting the stick for his behavior to cover up his sh**😖 If it wasn't for his bad attitudes towards some riders we would've still considered him the greatest GT rider with 7 consecutive tdf wins🤭.

Wait... what?They will all start out healthy save for the unknowns of Vindegaard's recovery to form. That could take some time and, if it does Visma will need to be realistic and pick a #1 rider that they'll give full support.
There should be a limit up to where Pogacar and Vingegaard (and Evenepoel for that matter) improve. I find it hard to believe that Pogacar can improve any further (without visiting different part of the forum) and Vingegaard being 28 should be close to his limit as well.Vingegaard will be better than ever. My question is how much can Pogacar improve? If he improves, no one will give him a fight.
