I have seen some of the most stupid and far from cycling related posts ever, here about Sagan being just funny and acting like people do, not like robot. This is exactly what i was talking about in several posts in difficult topics forum, so we can move it there, i will "kick every too much political correct hipster in his ass" there, if they would like.
If your world is world where i should get sued and dragged through the mud for this behavior, i hope our worlds will never meet.
Do you have some problems with girls being there as an object for the first place? Also Sagan is flirting with the podium girls all the time, who knows maybe he bangs half of them,are you just jealous?
Should we cancel the Formula1 podium celebration? I think splitting the champagne all over the girls is clearly sexist, it is clearly the act of artificial ejaculation. Stop that you bad men!!!
I hope when these clowns will end their nonsense posts, the race will be discussed. And that was a nice one,well the finale was,after not much action until last Kwaremont and Patenberg. Monster tempo by Cancellara, he was always going to win this race by TT mode like this, no chance for Sagan there. Another 2nd is great anyway, Peter did seem happy with the on the line. Hats off to Roelandts for nice attack.
Well that made me lose a lot of respect for Sagan. In a workplace that would be considered sexual harassment. It is utterly objectifying (as is the entire idea of podium girls, though that is a discussion for another day) and ultimately disrespectful of her person. He has a lot of growing up to do.
Cancellara's power is just phenomenal, if that needed repeating.
This thread is a good example about "You only see what you want to see".
I watched the race, partially enjoyed it and then did other stuff.
But some of you lurked the internet until you found something you can dislike, hate or discuss only to be able to rage about it....
Well done judging somebody because of a picture, no matter if the picture is real or fake.
Maybe this time of the year is a good time to remember that guy who once said "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

Coquard impressive with 16th, he's just 20 as well.
And he's 58kg....on the cobbles....
WTF
This guy has superstar written all over him
Indeed. As well, yesterday, Demare showed true class..
First Ronde ever. Finishes 24th. Ahead of many much more experienced and favoruted riders in this race.
The French have an amazing trio in Bouhanni, Demare and Coquard for future ( and are already now doing amazingly well of 3 of them ).
He came in alone as first after the big Kristoff group. Any idea how far he was behind on these riders on Kwaremont and Paterberg? Cause he probably lost considerable time against the wind on the flat.
I missed the live race and the first thing i see anywhere about it is about Sagan ponching a podiums girls bum... (i have since watched highlights)
Ok the race itself was not the best. Great ride from Cancellara but we all knew when he would attack. Then he was solo and it was race over. Nothing actually exciting or unexpected.
The only surprising thing was Boonen hitting the deck. Did not see that one coming. Otherwise no surprises at all. And it will be the same in Roubaix, no real surprises.
And Sagan. What makes it really bad is that the girl was there to "congratulate" the winner, Cancellara. If he had one, then did a pinch while he was being kissed on the cheeks, ok its not the most respectful thing but what does a podium girl expect. Actually taking an opportunity while she is occupied doing something else... thats just harassment through and through.
He is young(ish) and amazingly talented, but he is in the public spotlight, he is a role model, he is an adult and you cannot do that.
Would have been a lot more talk about the race if the race was more exciting. All we can do is hope for more in Roubaix and debate women in the Difficult Topics thread

Hang on. Are you insinuating this didn't happen?
There is no Peter Sagan. He's an actor hired by the UCI to drum up excitement for the sport

It is even gay-friendly.
I swear to god I was seconds away from responding to you earlier today with "How'd you react if Sagan had fondled Luigi's balls?"
Someone should put a text balloon on him saying "Now I've got you by the balls"

I believe that Sagan knows the girl, she was in the podium at GW, and I doubt he would do that to someone he didnt know. Maybe I'm wrong.
Yeah, I heard the same. The girl was flirting with Peter last week, it seems.

It's fairly obvious at 5:45 that she swiftly removes his hand and probably would have hit a lot more had it not been this public.
Sorry about the video quality, it was the best I could find on youtube...
I don't care if he have met her before or not of even whether they might have flirted a week ago (frequently pretty girls are seen by guys as flirty if they're just being plain nice - call it wishful thinking ) She obviously didn't think it was ok...
