be going up hill"

"The manager of team HealthNet has reported
that all of his riders are sick"

Reminds me of PDM pulling out of the TDF in 90 or 91. All sick due to bad pasta sauce......yeah....haha....translation - "I was supposed to refrigerate the EPO???"

I liked Frankie's term "bonification" which I could not find in any English dictionary in print on on-line. Maybe I was spelling it wrong :rolleyes:

I think it was on the first day Phil said: Tour of Calidonia...not once, but twice...He probably started drinking extra early that day.

Just sayin'

PS: Heard a story that Bob Roll told about why Phil and Paul like him so much and want him around...Goes like this: He can keep up with them (drinking-wise).

I'm sure they didn't get any health coverage for whatever they had. I bet they misreported their weight...

that figures. I feel bad now for criticizing him. I don't feel bad for laughing everytime he called Astana "Levi's Discovery Channel team" though.

. . . if they're all sick and he finds a way to deny them coverage? :rolleyes:

Given the amount of dropouts from the uplink, the phrase "sorry for the little bit of picture breakup" got old on day one, let alone by yesterday.

I heard a couple of "Ambien Tour of California"s.
