What if Thor’s implicated? How heartbroken will you be?
schmalz
Thor may test positive for Mercury from all that fish he eats
Baldwin
So, what about this frame-weight rule the UCI clings to anyway?
schmalz
So far all the riders have been Spanish, Italian or German
schmalz
The frame weight is si stupid, came about because Leblanc saw jalabert on a 14 lb Giant
Baldwin
Well, I’m no ‘Colombo’, but that pretty much looks like a European connection to me.
schmalz
It should just be a frame stress test for strength
schmalz
Just have Thor see if he can bend the frames
Andy Shen
with his mind
Baldwin
Oh
schmalz
Baldwin, are you going to chat from overseas at 4am?
Andy Shen
’cause we’re in trouble if you don’t
schmalz
Too true
Baldwin
Hey, did you hear about Michael Jackson? Seems he rewrote his will. In light of all the plastic surgery he’s had, when he dies he wants to be cremated, melted down and turned into toys. That way small children can play with him for a change.
schmalz
See? That’s what we’ll be missing…
Baldwin
I’ll chat at 4 am if I can figure out how to get all the hookers to leave me alone at that hour.
schmalz
So – it’s Floyd’s to lose now, right?
schmalz
Set yourself afire, they’ll leave
Baldwin
I lived for a month in a hotel in Bishkek and used to get stopped on every floor on the elevator going up to my room by girls. They’d push the buttons to stop the car and then just stand there looking at me with cold, accusing and hungry stares.
schmalz
Nice to be wanted
Baldwin
Not hungry like the wolf, either. Hungry like the Sudanese.
Baldwin
What could I do? I was making $7 a day per diem.
schmalz
Is that music?
schmalz
$7! Wouldn’t that allow you to buy the hotel?
Andy Shen
yep, music about janet and michael
schmalz
Seems everyone is at Fitchburg
Baldwin
But if I bought the hotel, then I’d be responsible for all the hookers all the time. Labor laws and such being what they are out there.
schmalz
Am I a bad person if I don’t give a crap about Fitchburg?
Baldwin
You’re not a bad person, you’re just dealing with past-life karma.
Andy Shen
you’re a bad person, period.
schmalz
Bad like a fox!
schmalz
So, will David Millar be the cleanest rider at the Tour?
Baldwin
This whole song is like Weird Al and the Pogues on NPR Sunday Edition.
Baldwin
Millar will be the most interviewed rider at the tour.
Baldwin
Wow…there’s nobody there. It’s like the voices in my head are all really just in my head.
schmalz
Not Commesso?
Andy Shen
what are the voices telling you to do today?
Baldwin
Maybe it’s the Ukraine vs. Italy match.
schmalz
I’m here, earning the big bucks
schmalz
Germany won?
Baldwin
The voices are telling me to go get a goddammed mousetrap and some black flag already, because those dishes ain’t ever gonna wash themselves.
schmalz
Listening to ESPN, they are befuddled by this tour thing
Baldwin
Germany won in a shoot out after approximately 270 minutes of running.
Andy Shen
cryptic ’til the bitter end
Baldwin
ESPN befuddled by cycling? Say it ain’t so….
schmalz
Comparing the bootings to kicking out the teams just before the world series
schmalz
They’re more amazed that the TDF can kick riders out
schmalz
Because player unions in the US are so strong
Baldwin
That makes no sense.
Although….Uperacion Puerto was supposed to be muy rico with athleticos from all over el mundo dello sport….so where’s the futboleros? Imagine the rioting if they pulled as many stars from the soccer pitch.
schmalz
You would never kick Barry Bonds out of the world series…
Andy Shen
So why did they have to do this the day before the tour? Did the info really take that long to get out?
schmalz
Fernando Alonso?
Baldwin
Or..how come the drama? This is like the ATF calling a press conference to announce that they were going to arrest a bunch of harmless Branch Davidians for weapons violations.
schmalz
I guess they had a meeting with all of the team directors, and had them all agree to kick whoever was on the list. Before they read the list. Talk about poker face!
schmalz
The day before the TDF is the only time when everyone’s paying attention…
Baldwin
Si! Muy presciente! Los suspiciones estan muy significan que hay unas problemas con los relaciones publicos del ciclismo en general.
Baldwin
Help
Andy Shen
no chance for riders to defend themselves…
schmalz
chat, zzzzzz…..
schmalz
Will this be the best TDF or the worst?
schmalz
Extra good, apparently…
Aaron
Big group today, huh?
Baldwin
Okay..how about this….What’s with all the dead cyclists in New York in the last month?
schmalz
Still haven’t heard what the evidence is yet…
jbrown
you would think with that link banner there would be more peeps in here? I guess they should be tan and oiled up too
schmalz
I’m oiled, not tan, though
Aaron
B. Harris still in 3rd after the circuit race. Olsen in points Jersey tommorow?
Baldwin
I’m tan-ish.
Aaron
Sorry, no news out of Cat 4.
jbrown
F the tour. Sherry pulls 9th in the 2’s after getting caught in some heavy rain. (started about 1/2 way through the 2 field
schmalz
Obligatory Fitchburg non-caring remark here
Andy Shen
people?!?!?
Aaron
There was random drug testing going on.
jbrown
I guess if the tour de forces are combined we might be able to rep that pic after all!
Andy Shen
Go Ben!
Baldwin
I did some random drug testing in my youth.
schmalz
Mr Brown, you lost me…
jbrown
yeah, I guess you shouldn’t care (he’s just your teamate)
jbrown
the whole 2 people in here not tan and oily mis-rep. banner chat thing? better?
schmalz
I don’t not care just about my teammates, I don’t care about anyone at Fitchburg
Niko T
Q: Will this be the end of Basso and Ullrich’s career’s (if they are found guilty later on)?
Baldwin
What does mean ‘rep that pic’? I am taxi.
Aaron
The teams already had an agreement a couple of years ago(?) to not let riders being investigated start pro tour races…or something like that. It’s not really a new policy.
jbrown
well, in that case. point well taken
Baldwin
Ahhh…clarity
Andy Shen
Millar made a comeback…
schmalz
We have no idea what the evidence is. Videotapes? Cryptic log books?
Aaron
And they don’t care about you. Obligatory sour grapes comment here.
Andy Shen
What happened to your TT, Aaron?
schmalz
I am the harvestor of sour grapes…
jbrown
rep that pic…you know, be all cool and sh!t. like the dude with the mustache in the chat banner. I think my meds are failing me again. I need to get some time released stuff
Aaron
My TT sucked. I could make many excuses. Bottom line, I blew it in numerous ways.
To quote my grandfather Cletus, in this case Mr. Littlefield doesn’t know shit from fat meat…
Jbrown
Thor sucks!
schmalz
Baldwin, is the gas running in your apartment?
Andy Shen
Occupants of saloon dive under tables.
schmalz
Don’t anger the thunder god…
jbrown
the boon man will smash
Faber
Nice! Especially since a Raleigh Chopper was my first bike. Bitchin huh! So Bitchin’ a hoodlum stole it from me when I was 10.
Still hurts.
schmalz
Oooh, my tender knee! I can’t go on! Thor laughs at the fancy man!
Baldwin
How come that Weird Al song is still in my head?
jbrown
nice, my first bike stolen was a mongoose decade
schmalz
Baldwin, it’s because your gas is running
jbrown
he is hardly a fancy man. I think he now has what it takes to finish the tour.
Baldwin
Silly Germans…how can you possibly stay mad at them?
schmalz
Thor has already finished a tour! He will SMASH the fancy ones!
schmalz
Thor will bring thunder and lightning!
schmalz
Thor will cause tremors will his genitals
Aaron
Our store is your cureall!
jbrown
robbie = 147lbs of fancy
Thor = washed up super hero
Tom = common first name and killer bunch sprinter
Aaron
prestige replicas avail
Baldwin
Thor will find out his weiner is smaller than Boonen’s
schmalz
Thor’s pancreas will cure acne
jbrown
i think thor is causing quaking in YOUR genitals
Andy Shen
gas running in Aaron’s room as well?
Aaron
top notch replicas argument
Faber
Next year’s team to Beat "
"The Balco Lab’s Cycling Team"
Co-Sponsored by Chicos Bail Bonds
schmalz
Thor’s frown will crack house foundations
schmalz
I think Aaron is typing in palindromes
Aaron
Extreme care is taken to pay special attention to detail.
Baldwin
Thor will eat too much moo-goo-gai-pan at the Village China Buffet while taking the $15 Chinatown bus to Boston and get the runs
schmalz
Thor will tallk in palindromes
Faber
Thor not even the best in Norway!
Oh snap. sorry man
schmalz
Thor will make the tires on the bus blow out
schmalz
There’s another Norwegian rider?
jbrown
boonan will speak in anomonopea’s and SMASH
schmalz
Thor will engage in hyperbole
Baldwin
There are thre other Norwegian riders…and they all placed ahead of Thor at the National Norwegian Cycling Championships and Lutheran Pancake Breakfast this year
tom will not use metaphores he will finish the tour using only alagories to describe how he wins
Andy Shen
back to my nap
schmalz
Thor will use spellcheck
Baldwin
Thor had to take a bus when he missed his subway stop and needed to get to his job folding sweaters at the fashion bug. He was almost late.
Andy Shen
pot, kettle, schmalz??
schmalz
Thor will look quizzically at his monitor
jbrown
Tom is to busy winning to use spell cheque
schmalz
Guilty as the kettle, but no pot for me
schmalz
"I shot the kettle…"
Aaron
Schmalz is right. Fitchburg is highly overrated. Cat 4 races are too short here.
Baldwin
Thor will wonder where Jan and Ivan are halfway through day three.
shaw
