Does this mean you've got a crush on z?
Fred
No, Dumbass. I'm just 1) pleased to see Bos do well, and 2) pleased
to see Cav get beaten.
Why would you assume anything untoward from those song lyrics? Oh,
yeah... you're an idiot.

That video is more proof that it sucks to watch a bike race in person.
In a way I think that cycling is in trouble. The pursuit is going
south, and the sport isn't adapting as (take for example) Winter games
and X games - style stuff - like ski cross or boarder cross which
suprisingly is totally unlike border cross (a non olympic event
dominated by mexicans and central americans).
Cycling needs some help RBR.
semi-ambivalent
It's confusing too. How could Bos be the winner if he was so far back?
He was the one who sat up and gave the victory salute, wasn't he?
About 30 riders back? Or was he a lap ahead? I never can tell. That's
why I don't race.

Gee, I don't know. Just because you're serenading him with lyrics from
the song "Voulez vous coucher avec moi se soir?" I'm sure that doesn't
mean anything at all. I can't imagine why you're so defensive about this.
Go ahead, stay in that closet as long as you'd like. Really, don't mind
us at all.

I think that's a happy teammate.
First place Bos is the black blur on the left & Super-speedy second
place Cavendish is the white blur on right:

(They are the first riders coming across the line in that video.)

more stylish ?
well, how about more crashes ? more outrageous clothing ? more drug
scandals ? more of a European flavour ?
how about a nice coming out-of-the-closet ?

I wasn't serenading anyone, 'cept maybe your mother.

Well then: Gitchy gitchy ya ya tata to you too, uncle Dad.
heather
so are you a fan of Cavendish or not?
It's weird, I generally like Robbie McEwen, even though he comes across
to me as kinda annoying in his manner. but Cavendish has rubbed me the
wrong way. I feel it's wrong of me to like one of them and not the
other... Maybe I'm just irrational, or Maybe he will grow on me this
year. Maybe Maybe. Admittedly I've only heard him talk a few times and
could easily have the wrong impression.

Dumbass -
You've got your head up your ass. Avid fans are *supposed* to like some
athletes and dislike others. Bias and rooting interest is part of what makes
it entertainment.
If a sport isn't able to get its fans to care about its protaganists, then
it has failed. An analogy is a movie that does a poor job developing its
characters so that the viewer doesn't give a shit about what happens. When
that happens, the movie will commonly be described as "it sucks".
thanks,

excepting the head-->ass bit, I agree with you (although secretly I do
wish sometimes that nobody had to lose) I just don't like it when I
can't even explain my own preferences to myself.

You've got your head up your ass. Subjective opinions aren't explainable.
When two people have two different favorite foods, they're both right.

Person preferences don't always have rational reasons for existing. Henry's right
with his, "There's no accounting for taste" statement. I don't care for either McEwen
or Cavendish - they both come across the same way to me.
