No thread for Lance? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Man, I'm ashamed. Lance won his fifth straight Tour and nobody had posted on it yet?

Well, let me be the first then.

Go Lance!

Ok, I feel better. Carry on.

Whoops, my bad. I just looked harder and I found one.

Oh well, Lance deserves two threads.

Halx · 07-28-2003, 05:48 PM

I think he actually had two before this one...

Actually probably closer to five. Bicycling doesn't draw much interest, so someone comes along and goes "Lets make a Lance topic!" A day later it dies out and they find it buried with the other Lance topics.

All people can really say is "wow, Lance is good." because that's all we know about bicycling.

Well said Jimmy4, he definately seems to be a great athlete, I was pleased to see him win.

GO LANCE!

Beat that French at their own game! Yah!

Well, I know a little more about cycling than that.

However, I didn't think many people would be too interested in the specifics of the sport, so I didn't go into detail. The "Lance" debate is pretty heated, actually. It's due to the fact that the only thing he really ever wins is the Tour de France. Some say he is among the greatest cyclists to ever compete. Others say he is mediocre at best.

I think he just doesn't focus on anything but the Tour. He probably just uses the other races throughout the year as training sessions leading up to the Tour. That's just my opinion though.

They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
