Saw the article the other day. He can suck on his one testicle.

I am sick of people giving in like this. Hopefully another bike shop jumps in and gets the business. They should have to pay for breaking the contract early.

I like how they say they know the police will still protect them. Yes they will, but it may take them just a little longer to get there. You know they don’t want you being mad if they break a traffic law on the way.

You should have seen this coming, when Autin City Limits started featuring heavy metal bands instead of folks like Guy Clark.

I wouldn't call what they're doing 'giving in'. I think they're opportunists who are simply showing their true colors.

Fuck that disgraced asshole.

I'm sure there are many non-profits that fix up bikes and teach kids how to ride or gives them the bikes.

Money supersedes morals, not hard for Lance Armstrong who has no morals.

Armstrong is a truly odious piece of shit. Just a total waste of oxygen




Don't weep for the stupid, or you will be crying all day

Armstrong is such a polarizing person.

As a cyclist, there is no doubt in my mind that he was/is unbelieveably gifted and the best rider of the era.

HOWEVER, everything he did to cheat, lie and harm people makes me loathe him. He disgraced America and American riders.

But the most disappointing thing to me was the judge who said "Perjury must never be profitable" and since Armstrong committed perjury at almost every deposition and interview he should have been punished more. Yet Armstrong kept millions of dollars that were made from the Tour victories and sponsorships that were all based on the lies.

He can climb up his own ass. His shortage of standard equipment should make this much easier than for a whole, normal man.
