It's time to thank the rbr faithful
Mike Jacoubowsky
to thank the faithful here, those who are here year 'round, as opposed to
the sudden influx of opportunists who sit on the sidelines until Walsh's
latest book comes out and then jump all over anyone who thinks cycling is
still a sport.
In a couple week's time, it will be too late; the posers and wannabes and
opportunists who jump in, jab a few times, think they're so cool and then
disappear... those guys will somehow think I'm including them in the
faithful. Yeah right. Just because you come in a couple weeks ahead of the
'Tour and wait until the doping tests are completed before leaving doesn't
get you much cred in my book.
So yes, I'm saying even Anton gets a thank you for being a fair &
foul-weather kind of rbr poster.

Man, you really are feeling magnanimous! Does it have to do with
seeing that kid upside down in the car?

I'd like to thank the opportunists who inundate us during the TdF.
OK, I'm not 'us' but I lurk all year and they make it more interesting
in July.

We should fuck with them and pretend there are no drugs in cycling

No way could we pull that off but it's a inspired idea. Doubt we could
get BL to go along though.

Pretend? Of course there aren't any drugs in cycling; this whole
doper hunt exists only to distract from the fact that the races are
all fixed by Bordurian gambling rings.

Rebellin will expose all.

I'm sure Sir Lance-a-Lot could give us some inside information on all
of that.

He has no inside information on the Republic of Borduria, although if he
grows a beard and buys a yacht then he might.

I am a total 100% July person, but I do lurk here year-round.
Sometimes I think about posting, but then I realize, I don't really
know what I'm talking about. Better to remain a lurker. But thank
you all for posting - it is always interesting and sometimes funny.
Or perhaps the other way around.

We don't know what the fuck we're talking about either.
It's just fun to have some laughs and learn a few things. Dumbass
cyclists seem to be more open minded and intelligent than the
population.

I see no evidence of intelligence or open-mindedness here. You and
blaff are the poster boys for stupidity and closed-mindedness.

You should have just told him that you reject doping
products, as eating whale meat gives you superhuman
abilities anyway.

Not to mention the sealburgers you make from clubbing baby seals in Canada.

We are alleged to be a collection of fucktards, fuckwits and a lucky few
asshats who are first in line to get their cheques from Fabio.

You know, this isnt a bad idea. Or maybe say its staged (pardon the
pun) like the moon landing, and do the conspiracy thing. With the
terrible year he is having, maybe Andy Schleck will buy into it :-)
