Who, the fuck, is tambourlain?!
Is he Cranky, as TFF suggested, or someone from twilight zone, or just a 9 year old kid still believing in Santa, clear Astana and holy Bruyneel?
I hope is Cranky... It would be only sensible explanation.

Re: Who, the fuck, is tambourlain?!
We need to look at it this way: Since House and bobke crawled off, we lost our true believers and the fun that comes from showing them the error of their ways. New blood from the Paceline is just what we need to make this place more lively.

If he'd sign sponsor contract with Bin Laden - they'd support him. It sure is more lively, but it's weird. Level of irrationality is amazing.

 It's interesting that many sites ban those that disagree with the groupthink. Whereas we at CF welcome it. If you look at tyrannical regimes, they also quell dissent. Those that seek the truth welcome different points of view...

Additionally, they are so enthralled by Bruyneel that many of them actually think of Astana as an "American" team. I still cannot get past that. I belong to CSC's forum and have for more than a year. They have their hardcore supporters too but most of them are pretty level-headed and have good conversations about cycling. It is amazing to see the contrast when you look at the Paceline and the sheer volume of nonsensical posts. |

actually, CSC forums are just as bad. They think Daamsgard's program is actually effective. They think Jaksche was lying. They are quick to forget Cecchini history at CSC teaching their doctors, and Riis' history. |

Yes, it can be as bad, especially about Jaksche. I think quite a few forum members still don't trust that everyone's clean but would probably like to. They were all pretty stunned and angry over Riis' confession last year. It was directed towards him. But, you're correct that they probably assume everything is clean now. I know I would like to think things are better but logic tells me it'll take years to fix it and the organizations have to change too. |
