hamilton's resume snipped
Dumbass -
The first requisite for labeling a champion is winning.
Not second place, third place, etc.
There are a handful of active riders that moniker could be applied to right
now.
Museeuw, Armstrong, Cipollini, Bettini.
Petacchi? Has only done it this year. Zabel? Lot of wins, but a lot of 2nds,
3rds. The label would have been more apt in his heyday.
Hamilton? No way. Only a handful of wins. Good drama though.
