Mark Cavendish the first

From CN.com: "I aspired to be like McEwen when I was younger," said
the twenty-one-year old current Madison world track champion. "But
when someone asks me that now, I tend to think to myself; I'm not the
next McEwen, I'm the first Mark Cavendish – but if I get to do what
he's done in my own career, I'd be really happy with that."

OK, so I still think he is a petulant, snotty teenager, and not even
an original self-aggrandizer at that....

You said it. It's not like he's beating top riders, is he?

What an asshole. Even tries to hose McEwen after he helped him.

The kid's got a motor, a motor mouth and a lot to learn. I'm still
****ed about him taking down Cipo at Amgen.

Argh! podium in cleats = rookie move. I know the Specialized Angel had
normal-soled shoes that looked like bike shoes, and I think getting a
set of "podium shoes" from your sponsor should be the new benchmark for
the arrival of a fast young rider.

And in 18 months, the companies can start selling them to fatty masters
as the latest must-have accessory!

Thanks, I enjoyed that spill...
Before I started hating Cavendish I took perverse pleasure in hating
Barry Bonds and Michael Rasmussen.
You know what happened to them.

"I didn't see Mark beside me," Boonen said afterwards.
That is weak. I expect better.
At least he did not say it is a no account race.

You are wasted in system administration.
Move to marketing, triple your salary,
and be given a TUE for drinking on the job.
