The new Stapleton ethos has traded the team's former "win at any cost"
mentality for one founded on teamwork and competitive spirit. Rallying
around the feel-good battle cry of "Die Mannschaft" - The Team -
Stapleton is hoping his optimism is contagious.
--------
If I had a frame with "Die Mannschaft" written on it, I'd throw my bike
back to the team wrench and say get this Dickshaft shit off my frame. I
don't need to be looking at gay porn when I'm climbing in the zone.
And then, I'd say, "And where the fuck is my 800mL of blood that is
supposed to be re-infused back into me in the hotel tomorrow morning
after the vampires come - what kind of Pro Tour team are you people
running here?"
Maybe Stapleton will put a smiley sticker on the frame if a T-Mobile
rider finishes in 87th place since that was his best effort.
T-Mobile's pink matches their pussy.
Thanks,
Magilla

Maybe they shouldn't shave their legs, either. Extreme homophobia like
this is usually a cover for homosexuality, or evidence of severely
repressed desires for members of the same sex.

What's natural about a bicycle? Do away with that too.
Why not make a list of allowed drugs and procedures and let them dope
to their hearts' content under a doctor's supervision? When the use of
over-the-counter medications or too much coffee or an herbal tea causes
positive dope tests, something is wrong with the rules. We'd have damn
good racing and the riders' health would be better protected if we
legalized, and regulated, doping.

One is a drug, the other isn't. That is a vast difference in our
drug-phobic age.

But the rules are whimsical and arbitrary.
Bicycles aren't natural either. You weren't born with one. Bicycle
racing developed hand in hand with doping. In the late nineteenth
century, doping was not considered unethical. The parameters of the
sport practically require artificial enhancement of the human physique,
to match the unnatural mechanical amplification of the human physique
and capabilities that is the bicycle. From the first bicycle races to
the present, drugs have been part of bicycle racing. The drugs used
have gotten better and safer. Strychnine, cocaine, then amphetamines,
now EPO, growth hormone and steroids..... Bicycling needs to return to
its roots. Legitimize doping, as atheletic medicine.
Thirty years ago the myth of amateurism forbade pro atheletes to
compete in the Olympics, or even for a sprinter to receive money for
training or a cash prize for running or an atheletic scholarship. Now
NBA players and pro-cyclists all compete. Attitudes change over time.

Training at altitude doesn't work. Living at altitude and training at
sea level works well. The mile-high White Mountains in California and
nearby Death Valley a short drive away are the best place on earth to
train.

Some really do have asthma. And stop worrying about being gay, or
who's gay. It's too gay.

You are a first-class troll. Congratulations.

You will notice that the noun "Mannschaft" has feminine gender (takes
the article "die").

A lot of Brokebacks hit pussy as a cover story. That's why it's "Die"
Mannshacaft." The "Die" is just to hide their closet cruiser lifestyle.
"The Team" on their bike frame...that's about as gay as a $3 bill in a
San Francisco bar. The Pro Tour should ban the entire T-Mobile from
competing until it gets rid of this gay moniker. And the officials
should force the team to tape over "Die Mannschaft" in Pro Tour races
because it's damaging to the sport.
I'll show you a real pro team - La Vie Claire - back in 1986 when
Hinault and Lemond were badmouthing each other in the press and LeMond
claimed the Badger and team management were trying to sabotage his Tour.
I want my pro teams to have extreme internal fighting and negative
gossip like this. I don't want them to all get along like some kind of
gay bathhouse resort. Do the guys on T-Mobile feed each other at dinner
too?
I like it when my pro Tour teams have the top GC guy eating dinner in
his hotel room because his teammates hate him, but ride for him anyway.
I like it when the manager of a pro team gives negative quotes about
the top GC rider in the press and then claims the rider won't return his
phone calls.
Besides, Barry already admits to using artificial means to increase his
hematocrit - an altitude tent. EPO is the injectable form of altitude
tents.
So this little self-righteous attitude T-Mobile has adopted is just a
semantical game that relies on manipulating loopholes and rules.
They're just as artificial as the OP blood dopers.
I don't give a fuck that EPO is illegal and altitude tents aren't. Both
are 100% artificial and you either ban them both or ban neither. By
allowing one and not the other you are sending the message that the
rules are arbitrary, whimsical... and have no real substance to them.
It's easy to rationalize using EPO when altitude tents, altitude
training, nutritional supplements, TUE's for bronchodilators, etc., are
allowed.
If you're going to be righteous about "Die Manschaft" then don't go to
altitude to train and get rid of the altitude tent. Don't apply for the
asthma TUE. At least then I can take you somewhat seriously, even
though you're still probably gay.
Thanks,

Is too late for Julich to go back to T-Mobile? This could be his big
break!

Two questions...
What does "transparent racing" mean?
Given that Michael Barry and Aaron Olsen will be playing starring roles in
T-Mobile's so-called rebuilding effort, and given that their nepotistic
girlfriends (i.e., Deidre Barry and Kim Anderson) helped them grab T-Mobile
contracts seemingly without appropriate qualifications, do you believe the
pussyfication of the planet is on schedule?

These two might be qualified to be domestiques, but you just know they
don't think that's going to be their role.
The T-Mobile roster looks like a bunch of 56th places to me. Nobody
gives a shit about this "Die Mannschaft" win clean stuff.
This team is going to be as bad as its cell phone service.
Thanks,
Magilla

They'll be pale and anemic due to lack of blood doping.
