Teams & Riders Vincenzo Nibali discussion thread

[gregrowlerson]

tl;dr "I'm gonna be so bad but it's still in the bag"

Now I am imaging you alongside Vincenzo at a press conference. He rambles in Italian for more than a minute, and then your English translation is simply condensed into the above.

Best part is me not even speaking Italian

I know. But you 'get' the gist of what he is going to be saying anyway.

Hello everybody. A member of the evangelical church of the sacred Shark directed me to this forum. Interesting place with lots of humour

With those sorts of comments you will fit right in here!

What do you mean by "humour"? Everyone's quite serious here. You may have to reread our bible

I hope Nibali would take the same strong truth serum as Jakob and start his own blog. The battle of words would escalate so much until both have to stay up all night to dictate long essays about some misunderstanding in 2016, drop out of the race and finally decide who's best in a rap battle event.

I expect Fuglsang's rap to go along these lines:

Listen up, it's gonna go down in history, when I make some *** post about Italy
Your weird shark voodoo won't make me yield, cause I got multiple husbands to use as shield

"Everyone is quite serious". Really?

"Everyone is quite serious". Really?

Maybe just seri-ish

In Italian there's a saying traduttore, traditore (tanslator, traitor).

Ciccone is out, sick. Not good for Nibali is an understatement.

 

[SafeBet]

I'll skip the panic button and go straight for my asthma inhaler at this point.

Will have to fend solo whole third week, lots depends on GC situation, but could be a serious problem.

That could be the demise of Lo Squalo's chances . He'll have to surf another train and pray for no mechanicals or falls . They better have staff on foot to provide food and bottles!

The Lone Shark will strike.

Next level mindgames.

The rest of the contenders will now be emotionally devastated when he drops them without needing a team and he'll get to soft pedal into Milan

 

[Red Rick]

Yeah that wasn't the news I was hoping for when opening the forum.

 

[Carols]

I am very depressed

 

[Climbing]

Need Majka running for 3th place saving everybody now, or Almeida keeping pink... which is certainly possible.

Some help from old friends: Delfino steps out of the Bahrain car, grabs a Trek bike and jersey, DS Martinelli sends Birdsong on a wrong road telling him to push for stage victory while Pozzo covers all the attacks. The last chance is Mosca dying a thousand deaths on Stelvio and Antonio waiting for him after Agnello. It's as bad as it sounds.

As long as we don't see Slongo drilling it on a Trek bike...

 

[topcat]

Still in the bag. It will add value too WHEN he wins with no team.

Slongo is in charge with motorpacing and I forgot Shefer, the Astana DS expert in turbo sticky bootles.

 

[Forever The Best]

Once again he will be miles behind heading into the final week.
