In a special, nuclear fallout class.

From the article

"...US Postal squad (another jersey you should probably throw out now)."

I mean why doesn't he include it in his main list?

 

[BroDeal]

It is a really poor list.

Tinkoff? Because they hired Hamilton? Why not Liquigas for hiring Basso or Disco for doing the same or Saxo-Tinkoff for hiring Contador? Ridiculous reasoning when there are so many other teams with scandals larger than hiring the wrong person.

I was expecting to see Liberty Seguros.

Yeah. I will change it back. It has been more than a day but I have been lazy.

USPS or Radio Shack jersey = gullible tool even back in the day it was a bit frontrunnerish.

add in disco.

i'll leave motorola out of it cuz at least they had some years with other riders at the helm.

No Shady-o Rack Leper Treck Waffenberger?

Alphonse, we must try harder.

 

[Autobus]

Le Groupement kit is so bad it's good. One so ugly it's funny and advertising a ponzi scheme. What could be more appropriate in this day and age?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

The Liberty Seguros kits looked too good to be worthless that way, plus because of the old Contador connection I'm sure there's still an audience for them...

If it's on moral grounds, how's about CSF-Navigare, LPR Brakes, LA-MSS, Androni Giocattoli or Gerolsteiner?

Its tdf based as everything that comes out of Britain about cycling so ls didn't register so.much.

 

[Hugh Januss]

I know it's not a pro team kit, but seeing duffers out riding around in "Mellow Johnnys" gear makes me laugh out loud.

I still have and wear on occasion some Phonak socks

It is a really poor list.

It was written by a British journalist who also wrote this: http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/bike-blog/2012/jun/14/lance-armstrong-usada-doping-charges. He loudly proclaimed that he was "not an expert" on the matter before writing a few paragraphs that served only to confirm that initial statement that he didn't know very much before concluding that Lance should just be given a free pass.

 

[zlev11]

i wear my Phonak jersey all the time

 

[Ferminal]

y no ONCE

Lol. Funny how even on that they are towing the sky line to a tee- Thomas said exactly the same thing as the closing paragraph.

Dude just has a personal vendetta against Hamilton

 

[mewmewmew13]

I was finishing a ride today and waiting at a stop light behind a guy with an early version USPS jersey
I was especially focused on the other sponsor on one of the back pockets....a very prominent Thomas Weisel Partners...[insert gag emote]

it made me laugh too, as prolly only those in 'this thing of ours' would fixate like I did

 

[TubularBills]

How about we turn this frown upside-down with the right jerseys worn by the right people - hey the models actually earned them?:

Accentuate the positive.

Raul Alcala.Still kicking *** today.

 

[ElChingon]

Well some don't see the irony of wearing said ex-bad press kits but they all come back.

* Phonak now supports Landis and Hamilton,
* Festina for the obviousness of it all,
* USPS to automatically bring up talk of USPS, its a crowd please-er!
* Shack egh, still to young and no direct story to them other than the fiasco of this year,
* T-Mobile the comedy, attack at any time ! (see USPS)

The list goes on, surprised this being in the clinic you guys don't get what wearing of those kits means these days?
