Did Andy know Cuddles when he was 8.
Andy was trying to head **** him on Alpe d'Evans

RE: the buying out of the contract, just thought I'd make a point that he would be earning less at BMC than Lotto. The amount of money it would of cost him would be massive.ksmith said:No. 3. Cuddels bought out his contract to join BMC, he choose the team, his failure.
I have also read in several places his race tactics are suspect in previous races ( I can't remember where I read it).
Don't get me wrong I think he is great, a slightly detuned Ullrich in style. He has had minimal support from his team, but a stage win and still in with a chance, BMC should be delighted.
The Hitch said:Fear of the Cadel fans on this board is the one thing thats keeping me from hanging a Cadel flag on my house tomorw.
THey will be unbearable if he wins...

hfer07 said:there is a single reason why I will root for Cuddles to win the Tour:
HE DESERVES IT
Long career always so close to achieve victory-this time around he's the rightful candidate to earn that overlong due spot in the sport's history...

The Hitch said:I didnt even know you were a Cuddles fanboy. I always thought you just liked everybody.
To be fair, with a few exceptions its not this forum so much neccesarily. Me and Sasquatch have shared some links to outside boards covering the TDF in pms, and lets just say it aint pretty.
Venture outside these forums and on some of those threads you get, drunk chauvinistic versions of Phil Ligget
LOL there is plenty of pics to go around - I only need one pic of Cadel in yellow in Paris to statify me.mr. tibbs said:Wonderful! I think I may be on the wrong forum. Take me with you, Hitch. Those silly ****ers have no idea of the lukewarm, cardigan sweater rage of which I am capable. Patches on the elbows of corduroy jackets, Hitch.
Patches on the elbows.
$20 says that pic of an inchoate Evans is ACF's wallpaper and already causing relationship problems for SC.
Mrs. Tibbs grew up loving Tintin (despite the books' glaring racial issues), so I'm obligated to support Evans. Haddock is everything I wish I could be.
Damiano Machiavelli said:While this is true, I do not think cycling itself can survive the wave of smug that will emanate from the Schlecks. It is already bad enough and they have barely won anything. Evans is our last, best hope to stave off the Schleckpocalypse.

Sørensen said:Had I not been aware of this board, there is no doubt at all I would cheer for Evans tomorrow. Sadly that is not the case. There are a few australians on this forum that has ruined any chance of me ever cheering for Australia in any sport.
These people have shown countless times an inability to pay respect or acknowledge anything non australian, they are completely one eyed and ultra biased. Unable to handle defeat in a gracious and mature manner, and I have no doubt that they will show the same inability in the case of a victory.
I do know that there are sensible and mature posters from Australia represented on this forum too, and I wish those people all luck tomorrow. But just thinking about how those fanatic people would behave in case of a Victory, makes me puke a little bit in my mouth. It's a case of the few, ruining it for the many I'm afraid and I'm sorry about that.
Damiano Machiavelli said:11. If Evans loses then the aussies will be intolerable. We have already seen them turn on Voeckler for not blowing himself up chasing Andy.
