IBTL:

I'm pretty sure, that I could care less what 1 cheat says, OR what 1 bitter old racer says either.

Somebody wake me when they both shut the heck up! ..(cleaned up for the mods)

Might be a long nap. Imo, the problem is he keeps getting asked about it/him.

I'm pretty sure you do care what Lemond says or you wouldn't have taken the time to post a message.

When you win 3 tours and then someone comes around and makes you life hell for a decade - so much so CAT IVs on the internet call you a baby, bike shop owners who sell Trek won't even look at you - then you can judge - till then you might want to STFU.

Funny enough, he never said a peep about dopers who affected his cycling results. Where is the outrage about Hinault, Kelly, Roche, Fignon, and Indurain? It was only when Armstrong equaled his record that he decided to make an issue of doping. Now that Armstrong is gone he is hanging out with Indurain and praising Pantani.

He clearly said he could care less.

I believe this will be the year that we leave Lance behind. The Tour Down Under is underway and by the end of July we will have heard the last of it. IMO Lance has been keeping a pretty low profile which he should. I fully realize it's probably all part of his PR plan but he's doing the right things. The media keeps stirring the pot and unfortunately Greg continues to engage in the story line they feed him. The media lives for controversy and they will continue to stoke the flames until people get bored. Well, I for one am bored as I think are the rest of us. Greg needs to hire an assistant that will keep the media away and stop engaging in Lance rants. He'll be better for it in the long run. Focus on the new company and being an ambassador for the sport and when a journalist asks him about Lance his response should be "who?"

Wow,....just plain wow!

Since when has this forum not allowed opinions, I am truly hurt.

Sorry my opinion of both of these 2 cry babies is very low. You feel differently and thats ok, by me.

I refuse to tell anyone what their opinion is or should be. I also really doubt you go thru real life telling people such things!

Talking about yourself I assume.

Really. When will LeMond start complaining about Hinault and Kelly and Indurain and Roche? There seems to be a pattern where he compains about Americans who dope while he praises riders of other countries who are just as dirty.

ergott · #14 01-22-2015, 07:46 AM

The best comment to kill a story is "no comment". Problem is if he does that he will lose relevancy and name brand recognition. Press is press and he want's to sell bikes.

I say this with the upmost respect for his accomplishments on the bike.

Maybe because Indurain and Pantani didn't try to end him?

Imo, I agree he should change the subject when asked about "that," and focus on his bike line. And get a damn steel fork for that Washoe.
