Welcome to the Tue, 10/29/2012 – 06:00 edition of Off Topic! You are looking at the next step in the evolution of VCN, the Off-Topic page. Have you ever been frustrated because you had a burning desire to call someone a sandbagger and could only hope to be timely by posting your comment to a photo gallery page or on a page describing a charity ride?
Well, your prayers have been answered! You can post your comment from the home page and it magically comes to rest here with the other orphans from the land of Misfit Comments. The page gets refreshed every day, but not to worry! Each day’s page will be archived and treasured, so you can look back on past pages with pride, shame or disgust-depending on how the day’s conversation went. So post away! We’ve got an internet to fill up.
Given it seems clear that most cyclists were doping ,can’t we still acknowledge that Armstrong overcame adversity to achieve great things? Surely the playing field was “level” ie it isn’t as if Armstrong was getting an advantage over the others?
Short answer—no
Congrats on the laudatory Times write up!
Was the writer of the NYT piece the same David Carr that rides for Setanta or just a coincidence?
