Section head text.
Where to begin this week?
LeBlanc and Lance are having a transatlantic slap fight.
Riders are hopping teams like ADD fleas.
From the irony-free land of “I don’t get it”, the Tour of California is sponsored by Amgen, the manufacturer of EPO.
And “Toto” Commesso still hasn’t been signed. Do you think he’d ride for a CRCA sub-team?

not a poodle
This is the topic????
Does spending time on this chat count toward training time?
Here I am – feel free to take any cheap shots…
Hey, I’ll start. Wherefore Schmalz in ’06?
Yes as does “roughing up the suspect” to use an euphemism
Um…
No announcement as of this time.
But I will spend a lot of time on the toilet

I hear rumors about a certain Mengoni rider…
Either that’s a chant or you’ve got a really odd phrase pasted into your clipboard
Mengoni? Wilson?
What’s with Next and Champion Systems?
JB.
No idea on Next or CS
Psycofantic appreciation
JB, you mean the good jason?
Say, I have a friend–yeah, that’s it, a friend–who roughs up the suspect a lot. But m-, uh, but his riding is still pretty pitiful. What am I, uh, what is he doing wrong?
You even have the t-shirt. May I suggest a therapist?

Is that a psychotic sycophant? (sorry, spelling bee nerd rearing it’s ugly head).
No chamois cream.
Andy spells – but can’t pronounce
Jason Schneider left GS Mengoni, just sold me his powercranks. I’m scared to mount them, they look painful.
I think that’s 3 minutes for the first masturbation joke.
JS left Mengoni? – smart move.
You heard it here first
DAMN!! I’m usually good at the spelling/grammar thing.
Schmalz and I went to Vegas so we could spell and pronounce words.
Spelling is overrated, verb tense is where it’s at
I went to Vegas for the culture and the museums
I like kitties
I like kitties
Kitties are nice…
Down, girl, down!
He’s going to work for US embassy in Germany, JS that is. Time to get a real job. Poor boy.
He speaks German? And he never cursed at me in another tongue?
An opportuniity missed
bow-chicka-bow-wow
Heard rumors about Bremer.
I smell a new t shirt.
So, to speak about something cycling related. Why do TDF directors seem to go insane? Is it the Peugeut (sp – bite me) leather interior?
I can personally tell you that he does indeed curse…
What’s the word on Bremer?
I heard he’ll leave if Lisbon leaves. Anyone have anything on Lisbon?
He’s so damn nice (Bremmer), he probably saved a south american village with his bare hands and winning smile
Does anyone know if there are going to be Time trials in CRCA next season? The new newsletter made it seem like they couldn’t hold them in CP anymore. Or were they just looking for safer alternate locations?
Now there’s a question I’m interested in!
I think they’re just looking to move the TTs around to maybe avoid foot traffic?
Was that worded sensitively enough?
If I were cruel I would say something about TTers being a pack of poodle walkers, but I’m not cruel…
Razzy must’ve popped the cork off the bubbly when he found out there’s 115k of TTs in this year’s TDF.
So many opportunities to fall..
I’m talkin gto myself now
schmalz how do you stay so mighty?
It’s the beer and M&Ms
Who leads Disco Team in this years tour? is there an heir apparent?
Don’t ever let them say that you can’t eat all your daughter’s Halloween candy
Speaking of the chicken I wonder if its true he doesn’t like to ride with a full bottle because of the added weight. He also is said to have consulted Calista Flockart about losing additional fat before the tour? Any truth to these rumors?
I’m guessing they’ll try to make Hincapie a climber.
Disco is rudderless, although Chris Carmichael will push for George so he can still get interviewed.
Sorry, photographic ripostes take more time.
Razzy has resorted to helium enemas
Does that give him high pitched farts?
ripostes – ugh!
Crawford thinks it’ll be Tommy D., but he’s “talking his book” I think. Although the kid from Connecticut did put up a nice Vuelta. Personally I think it’s Il Falco. (Love that name)
We sent off some questions for George. Hopefully he’ll answer them soon and we’ll know what his plans are for the tour.
Concise word choice is for suckers.
And an American sponser will push for an American leader
Kid from CT? Badger?
OK, is this cycling or bodily functions. I’ve had two other people’s poop on my hands in the past hour, so I can do either….
I liked it better when Schmalz was talking to himself.
I would be suprised if Disco channel even realized they still sponsored a team
Danielson is from East Lyme Connecticut.
Can’t go wrong with poop
So bi Georgie gives up classis just like that after being a foot from winning P-R? – Or you folks are saying he does classics and TDF? They already said Il Falco gonna do the Giro
TD from CT? I always just thought he was from CO. That’s because I’m not smart.
Danielson is from East Lyme Connecticut.
There’s a lot of time between april and july
Anyone know who Todd was?
Boom Boom is the big gorilla in the cage right now. George will have to throw Hammond into his spokes to win
I miss Todd…
What about the big news – no team for Commesso. I gotta get my Toto!!
Me too.
I think Toto got caught in the Sony fiasco
I can’t believe Lee Malone isn’t here now. Or Chris M.
I thought he was one of you guys or a close teammate, just messing with you all.
Yeah, what the hell? The server doesn’t start up w/o those guys.
Schmalz, you see the restaurant review in Wednesday’s NYT? New restaurant: “THOR”
When is Gabe Kaplan gonna wiegh in on something
Oooh, do they have fish? In a camper van?
I got Bailey from WKRP first
“Thor”: Will they serve Schmalz’s Miller High Life in skulls?
Schmalz Malts Schmalz Malts Schlitz
Can someone explain the battle of the network stars thing?
Travolta was hitting on me the whole time
It stems from my obsession with Robert Konrad – it’s not just Thor folks
Bailey…
Bailey – underrated
Can we talk about the fight here?
Venus Flytrap–underrated
Wow, that one killed.
Which fight? Flecha vs Toto, Lance vs France, Lance vs Floyd, me vs common sense?
Fight? What fight?
I’m a Herb Tarlic guy myself
I think someone was being cute with those initials.
Yeah, the fight, lets hear about the fight! Was it from too many Roids?
WKRP takes over again, it’s my wedding vows all over again
The fight was a confluence of knucklehead actions.
I think he means fight on Cat Paw
wedding vows?
Everytime Schmalz says Toto Commesso, I think of this cheesy 80’s Latina-New Wave girl group Toto Cuelo (sp?)
One hit wonder: I Eat Cannibal.
Don’t make me go Pablo Cruise on yo self
Can you be a one hit wonder if no one’s heard of your one hit?
everyone here is so fired.
Andy is furiously Googling for the PC “nude” album cover right now
You haven’t lived ’til you’ve been serenaded in Vegas with Pablo Cruise.
everyone here is so fired.
I have skills – useless, unmarketable skills, but skills nonetheless
sorry about the double post. i am fired.
sorry about the double post. i am fired.
And why not the band “Toto” – Roseanna, Roseanna…
sorry about the double post. i am fired.
Shen – I love you
Right back at ya, big guy.
I love how they all look so calm…
pablo cruise naked=buzzkill
I’m giggling like a Arkansan in court right now
WTF?!?!!!?!!?!!!?!!!?
Talking bike is for losers – we have Pablo Cruise in the house!!
WTF is up with you guys?!?!!?!!?
I wonder what ‘Good Ship Pablo Cruise’ sounds like.
OK – seriously was Lance awful on SNL or what?
Laughing so hard I’m near loss of bladder control…..That is just messed up.
Good Ship – Shirley Temple cover?
lamo. you catch that little dig at george?
Yes, exceptionally poor. But Sheryl. Yummmmm
I didn’t catch anything – what was the dig?
Bailey…
sorry
Bailey kicked Loni’s butt!
In a heated adolescent dream of mine of course…
there were a bunch of guys dressed in disovery kit asking him if it was a team sport, why aren’t they hosting together, and lance said “sorry george i’m hosting alone” or something like htat.
Is Lance trying to take my spot as the stoniest annoncer on TV?
George is way dreamier than Lance – just sayin.
Loni.
LONI LONI LONI LONI
LONILONILONILONILONILONIUUNNNNGGGHHHHHH
Whew!
useless
Loni was nice but that damn hair needed a chin strap!
Hey…did I miss all the good stuff?
Hmmm, I’m sure we can get pro riders to joins the chats now, don;t you think?
Another question for GH – Bailey or Loni?
Hey, here’s some gossip. We got Baldwin!
Hey…did I miss all the good stuff?
Or – George, name your favorite Pablo Cruise song.
youve got eustice for sure
Nearing 4 pm…
OK, so we’re immature and useless. But that Pablo Cruise album was sooooo much more fun than “What’s you’re wattage at LT”
Hey…did I miss all the good stuff?
That was a total waste of an hour! Excellent!
if this posts multiple times like my previous attempts, i will quit, but in the name of actually talking about nyc cycling …
are the nyvc/hincapie kits gonna look like easter eggs, like their “sister” team’s do?
Wattage numbers are duller than dry cleaning
I’d like to add that the resistance class made me too sore to crap….
They will be clear and crotchless..
That’s a ringing endorsement for resistence class!
I hope the kits are at least as nice as the ML kits. Color is cool.
clear and crotchless is redudant
now we’re talkin’.
Are you regular, do you wish to be constipated?
eventually I crapped, though
Resistence class – come for the work out – stay for the constipation! The ads write themselves!
Coffee, gravity, and a bag of baby carrots
That was fun. Same time next week?
Damn, I just remembered this.
broken ribs, also a constipator
Well, we started with an innocent little chat and we ended up with sordid innuendos and a classy shot of a nude 70s crap band. I would say Mission Accomplished!
Crapatcha later
You suck, Aaron.
Signing off, same time next week. But more male nudity and more poop next time – OK?
That’s what my Tap keeps telling me.
Hey, sorry I’m late… where the girsl at?
I think we pretty much guaranteed that girls won’t be coming here.
Hey, sorry I’m late… where the girsl at?
But I though with, ya know, all the male nudity and stuff that it would attract them in droves..???
Sorry to miss out guys! Would you believe I was actually out riding? Yes indeed. Got my first flat though in months, and spent 15 min repairing since the CO2 tube wouldnt go over the stubby little valve sticking out of the Ksyrium rims. That sucked. I just realized I used the words “stubby” “sucked” and “sticking out” in the same sentence without being the least bit dirty. Neat. Anyway, ended up doing a brutal 20 miles today with 15 min rest in the middle. Whew. I need a break now…
Hey, whens the next session?
