"Cycling is not a sport"
Cycling is not a sport? Who gives a **** if some fat assed so called
writer doesn't think it's a sport. Anyone who gets out on the bike in the early morning to ride or who trains to race in the local criteriums knows it's a sport. If by OUR definition it's a sport.... It's a sport. He obviously hasn't spent even 1 minute to see what cycling is all about or the article would not have been written. Don't waste one more minute getting upset with this moron. He's not worth it............ Robert Oliver wrote: It took a while, but we have one of our first "cycling is not a sport" articles of the year, along with a healthy dose of anti-Lanceism: http://sports.espn.go.com/page2/s/armstrong/030718.html The author doesn't actually seem to have watched any of this year's tour, but that's not surprising, as those that write this kind of drivel rarely know what they are talking about. |

And if you did you would be happy that they aren't scantily clad! http://www.zenshuji.org/activ_gateball.html "Although the game does not require much strength nor a high level of skill honed by years of diligent practice, the tension and drama rises to unbearable heights as each team tries to outmaneuver the other with subtle shifts in strategy." |

"Cycling is not a sport"
Cycling couldn't possibly be a sport, after all,
there's no strategy involved, no mental sparring... well wait, I guess it does have that, but really, just how hard could it be to churn out 300 watts for four to five hours each day for 21 days? Certainly not in the same class as say, basketball. A fine sport that puts convicts on the courts and them out of the crimnal courts...for a while. |
