I have some friends who day in and day out keep comparing Nibali to Armstrongs performance in his hayday.
I can easily see why people believe the Shark is doped to the gills (come on, who can not?), but I see everyone as clean untill proven otherwise.
I need some good arguments for why Nibbles isn't a new Armstrong. Can you give me some numbers? Ascent times or something similar?
PS: Valverde should have sent his dog...
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

1996 seems like a real EPO fest. |

Valverde 2 seconds off of third place and 15 off of second place, I think he will take the podium |

c'mon guys, vs. 2008 comparison is meaningless.
Today they took the Tourmalet very easy (paced by Werstra, 50+ peloton) and Nibbles went full gas from nearly the beginning of the climb (horner went with 10.4kms to go). |

You are pathetic.
Right... Fucking retard.
Me a fucking retard, why? Because you cross the line by wishing an athlete and human being dead... because of cycling? I really fail to grasp your twisted mindset.
Oh my fucking god. Yeah you are clearly a retard.
How can you possibly think that I mean actually die? CLEARLY I mean that he should go blank, and lose time. This is a fucking bike race, not an action movie. It even indlydes a fucking smiley. Jesus Christ!

He won't pass Peraud but he will pass Pinot easily.

Since I haven't seen the stage (yet), people are seriously underrating Pinot in the TT. Valverde isn't that better and he will finish outside of the podium. |

Well except from today he hasn't crushed his opponents. His just been constitet while riders like Peraud could follow him two days but the third it was Pinot etc. |

I think Valverde will get 15s on Pinot in that long TT easily. Final should be
1. Nibali
2. Peraud/valv
3. Peraud/valv
Pinot should still walk away with best young rider. And top 5 for Bardet. All happy.
Remember its long slightly hilly TT. |

It's 15 seconds guy. It can go either way. NOBODY can predict this. |

Tejay would be in prime position for podium if he had not boinked that one day.
