Todays idiot masters fattie doper

[BotanyBay]

It looks like Anthony has been making the rounds in a damage control effort.

Absolutely that is what he is doing. First via Andy Shen (NY Velocity) and now via Velonews.

I hope his big-media clients run his name through google before considering Bondi Digital as an archiving solution.

He was obsessed. That's it. That's the ticket. They might believe that.

He had to dope because he was afraid his cat 4 racing team would kick him out if he did not produce.

I am also having a hard time believing that his early Battenkill wins were clean. I get the feeling that he started on the juice when he was a cat 6 and planning on racing.

I think the desire to belong to a group also played a significant role in this.

Wow! What a d*uchebag! Pushing 50, and getting wind-tunnel time?

Nice try blaming the sport for your mental/moral weakness...

Not uncommon for age grouper triathletes...

Of all the crap that triathletes buy in an attempt to qualify for Kona, wind tunnel time might be the best investment that could be made.

As master's racers compared to the young fit kids, we are fat That's the way it is, we just have to accept it. Something Anthony didn't do.

Just read that GranFondo guy article, reminded me of the guy who started a programme as kind of an experiment to see what the changes actually are.

Everytime I read one of these it makes me wonder what the difference is in how the guys feel clean vs doped.

Well, he's certainly in a unique group now...

Nope, VeloSnooze article said he tipped the scales at 144 lbs, so not a fattie just a druggie.

That is a great read. He makes some good points. At least David Anthony has done better than many pros, admitted his misdeeds, cooperated with authorities, told his stories.

Hope he comes out of it a better person.

Funny sh!t.

Yes he does. Although I still think doping to race master's (or anything else in the amateur categories) is beyond ridiculous......

I do not think he is blaming the sport, it seems like he is pointing out the sport exploits a weakness that he already has. Which is true (as it would be with most competitive sports).

This is journalistic genius. He/She needs a bigger audience.

Great read!!!! I know this is OT but he wrote about his brother's suicide and it was a heart ripper.

This would be more farcical if there weren't about twenty grains of truth in it. Kinda makes you wonder how many dudes out there really think like this: the mindset of the idiot masters fattie doper:

I do not often say this, but if he is not currently employed as a writer, he should be.

He's got some real doozies: I'll look for a couple.

He made all that up? It sounded so real.

Now I know why it's called Dope.
