3. it was said in the end of the Giro that Piepoli would be next year leader. I think Simoni will stay to help his friend |

Piepoli has leader i would like to see this and support at 100%..sadly I affraid that he is not team leader type of rider. Like I sayd before everyone don't like be a goal scorer and prefer to be defender. |

Hincapie signed for two years with T-Mobile. he described the offer as "irrefusable".
Armstrong says he considers himself "betrayed"
curiously, Team Slipstream director Jon Vaughters (former teammate of Hincapie) has said "This is a surprise not because hes leaving but because i always was sure he wasnt playing fair if you know what I mean"
silly season starting, it seems
also, I'm guessing Vaughters refers to T-Mobile's reputation as the clean team.

something tells me Crommy is in for triple disappointment... (and no, I don't have anything against brits).
I'd like Wiggins to win because he seems like a nice guy. still more than two hours until the start.
No, I'm not to disappointed. Well actually I am, but as I'm British I like disappointment, which is why I both am and am not disappointed.
Seriously though, great support throughout London today, even if we didn't get the result we wanted. I couldn't see anywhere on the course that wasn't absolutely packed - I hope everybody got a nice position

Im still not sure about the landis arbritration. It was only that one day were he looked like a monster and people have days like that e.g Moreu up the Vontoux. The day before that he was dropped, seriously if he was on drugs then he wouldnt have been dropped. At first i thought he was guilty, but im starting to reconsider.

Blood never lies
And for that matter, neither does urine, but urine never lies seems weird

but there is two outcomes. One he took the drugs, or second he had an unusual high level of testosterone which would explain the big attack.

No the arbitration panel is still in discussion, but whatever the outcome the damage has already been done (phonak)

That's the kind of thing that shocks you a lot. I didn't know that. That's quite a shock to me. I'm just going to keep repeating that, I'm quite shocked by it. Sort of like the Chris Benoit thing recently

Yes. He sort of last it. He killed his son, then his wife 2 days later then killed himself. A horrible mess. He was on so many drugs though, and was totally depressed. That's shocking enough. But the real strange thing is the fact that news of his suicide was posted on Wikipedia...6 hours before it occured. Awful stuff

no one really had any comment to make. it was a shock the way his death proceeded. and I didn't even know the guy.
that said, there are literally millions of deaths every day and no one does a damn thing about it.
the genocide in Western Sahara? in Palestine? in Uganda? etc etc etc.
does anyone do a thing? no.
I'd better stop here before this thread becomes political.
"The death of one is a tragedy. the death of a million is just a statistic"

Yes. He took steriods and that culmivated with anger and the fact his wife was unhappy, and that his son had a disease that made him afraid of other kids. And he then got angry after taking and accidently killed his wife. We think his son saw and he killed him the next day. When he fully came around he hung himself.

By the way, now you bring that up, does anybody want a political thread for discussions. I really like a good political debate.
Also, I'll delete this post once issoisso agrees with me and we start discussing things all alone. It'll be great
