Yeah that piece is probably one of the worst things I've read on that website.

Being a Chav is 100% British! The tats don’t bother me but what happened to his socks?
personally I feel like the Salbutamol case makes (in addition to other cases, like the jiffy bag, hiring doc Leinders) everything SKY has ever done and anything they ever will achieve at the very least shady. that's the price you pay for being a self righteous douche on paper, positioning yourself so highly above the rest, but a total a-hole in real life, disregarding all the rules you spoke so highly of without so much as a blink - a hypocrite is probably too light of a word here.
SKY has capacity to both createand tarnish it's stars - Wiggo might've been the guy with countless track medals, but instead he's that dude who most likely came to win the Tour on drugs (not: the tour on drugs lol). same thing might happen to any of them, Froome included. no one's gonna be surprised to hear Kwiato's on this, and Poels' on that. there's no chance people will look at their wins without a shadow of a doubt.
that's their fault entirely. saying what they said, doing (on the road) what allegedly the mostly doped team in history did, and then behaving like all the guilty parties in sport behaved, there's no escaping public's outrage. sure, that alone doesn't prove anything, but despite we think of ourselves as the very sophisticated spicies, we do make the same mistakes over and over again - in their case probably not learning one bit from them.
I don't mind Froome's Giro win. it was a very entertaining race, his 80km solo ride was epic, all in all it all looked so close and real. I think I'll stop here and say no more, appreciating some really cool racing, we won't probably see come the Tour. tearing clothes over it is IMHO kind of unbecoming - unless it's your first rodeo and Froome's just popped your cherry - in that case, be sure they'll keep on hurting your feelings, cause that's what pro cyclists do darling

Does anyone thing Wiggins looks really uncomfortable on the bike in that photo I posted. One of the things I always admired about Wiggins was his form on the bike, the sign of a good pistard/track rider. Certainly in his hour attempt he looked superb, now he just looks like a mess.
Looks like he's bulking up for this new rowing career or is that still happening? He's certainly a lot heavier in the upper body than he was in 2012... And yeah, too many tats!maquisard wrote: ↑Mon May 28, 2018 9:49 amDoes anyone thing Wiggins looks really uncomfortable on the bike in that photo I posted.
