Yeah, that's right, Evans is definetely speaks better than Contador.
But seriously why I hate him? He is ugly.. He rode for teams which I really don't like and I don't like usually their riders as well. He is wheelsucker, I really don't like his riding style. And he is riding for Phonak 2.0 now. But more probably I hate him, because he is such an idiot.
Screw that rainy and cold weather, ear-speakers don't work well, the Schlecks can't react to attacks nor exploit an opportunity in such conditions.
Meanwhile, it seems that not everyone's Blood Bag Monday was equally good.
Some people need one more day to enjoy it. We'll realise that tomorrow...
did you guys really forgot what happend to team leopard in may?
everyone was so shocked at that time and now your making fun of the schlecks for descending slowly? cmon...
Schleck also said that getting the news of the death of Wouter Weylandt, was extremely hard for him because the two riders were not only just teammates but close friends as well. “The loss of Wouter last week, was personally a big shock, he was a good friend on mine,” Schleck told press.
Yeah, tomorrow it will be really interesting to know if Andy is thankfully to his psychic really bad descender now.. And he was quite good descender in time..
Why do you call him an idiot ? Only because is protecting himself and his dog? In 2008 he had injuries all over the place and the journalists were pushing him I remember that. Watch other intervies with him on ytube, etc to convince he's a good guy. As for the wheelsucker part, yes, but why others can't suck as good as he does?
I somehow find it funny that A. Schleck says that it's bad for the race to be decided downhill when in fact the one and only reason he is still in front of Contador is because of the crash on stage 1 where he finished in the same group as Contador but gained over 1 minute on a "technicality" one could say. At least here the differences were due to racing which is great.

This is why I like him. He doesn't take shit from anyone. Plus, it's funny.

“Contador knows all too well that the Schlecks don’t perform at their best in the cold and rainy conditions,” Fränk said. “It’s all part of the game -- knowing your opponents and knowing their weaknesses. He knows the conditions today, coupled with the dangerous descent, were not our strong point.”
- Well, Fränk isn't complaining ...
he has been always smart one..and is also ok rider. Who do not pick just important races

He became an idiot for me in TdF 2008, because of his acting. Since then, I really hate him. Plus I dislike quite high number of riders of the team where he is riding now. And it's needed to say, I really hate entire team BMC, or as I really like to call them - Phonak 2.0. So it's quite easy for me to hate their leader as well. As many fans of cycling are hating Andy Schleck, I hate Cadel Evans. That's all. And yeah, he sucks quite nicely in last days.

Yeah, maybe a little bit!
wacko: Yeah, everybody likes and dislikes someone else, sometimes for same thing, that's quite normal.

I've found that I'm starting to gravitate to the riders that target more than just one race. When you target just one race, you come off as desperate and not confident in your own abilities to win. Those who race all season show a general enthusiasm towards racing and I find that appealing.
Thor is 2/2 in breakaways and I'm really liking his character. I'm giving him loads of respect and he's starting to grow on me However I'm only really this happy because Hesjedal came third and I think, played a key role in Garmins 4th stage win.

Some guy on TSN thought Ryder was winning the whole time, and another guy thought, Hesjedal was 1000x the rider Thor is despite the fact he's higher in the GC, yet has 8 stage wins while Ryder has 0. He couldn't believe Ryder was working for Thor.

No, he didn't actually, but at least Armstrong dominated the Tour year after year, while Schleck is far from that.
And on the Evans matter, you can't call a nice guy someone who reacts like that and/or see him as role model. I mean for him it's unacceptable for someone to touch him, but it's ok for him to throw a bottle of water at someone else.
Oh and Andy doesn't want the Tour to be decided on a downhill? I'm pretty sure it was on the climb where he couldn't follow Contador, then the downhill just made the gap increase.
At least on those downhills we get to see some action compared with the big mountain stages that we got so far. I mean in the previous 4 editions, who won on the Plateau de Beille also won the Tour. This year the winner there was Jelle Vanendert
Also, I dislike both Evans and Andy because they're the type of people that always try to find excuses and blame someone else or something else for their failures rather than looking at themselves and see that maybe they are the problem. I just hate those kind of people.

Yah, Id believe that. They really don't know anything about cycling. Was it sportcentre or something?

Nah, just the comments beneath the actual Stage 16 page.
Cmon dude...be serious.
