I know Lance, he works at the local McDonald's. I'll take extra cheese with that order of chili fries, Lance.

bottom line is that lance is a cheater who doesn't deserve any of his yellow jerseys and he is doing the greatest diservice to cycling by even being affiliated to the hobby(not sport).
Ah, the joys of internet forums . Every forum I frequent has this sort of jackassian type of hit and run post now and again. The annoying part isn't that the troll badmouths a sport/hobby/star/computer/car/religion/political party/or what have you, it's the unoriginality of their posting. It's always some crap that anyone familiar with the subject has seen a million times before.

It's very late (early?) and I've been surfin' the net. I wish I hadn't come across this, because, unfortunately, when coming across something like this, I read all the way to the end. I shouldn't.

But really, we should not respond to these threads. They ought to be deleted immediately, and the member ought to be warned.

Some might think this would be "censorship"; it wouldn't. The member who began this thread did not follow BF's guidelines. Let him start his own website, there he has the freedom to say whatever he wants... it is not BF's responsibility to let this member voice his opinions on BF if those opinions are offensive and contrary to the nature of BF.

Regards,

S.

Kris: What a great action photo! How long did it take you to totally consume the concrete step? You know, there once was a guy who ate a whole Ford Pinto. He ground the metal down to dust, put the dust in milkshakes, and consumed the whole car. I think it took him a year and a half to eat the Pinto. This is definitely something for you to shoot for. Nice Going!

so let me get this straight if Lance was a member of this forum then it would be against forum rules to post such libellous crap about him- since he isn´t (as far as we know) and cannot defend himself it is Ok.

Hmmmm. Am I the only one who finds this a little odd

Let me see if I get this straight. Lance is a cheater and "sucks balls" but has NEVER been tested positive. On the other hand you love "Merckx" who you say "did all this without steroids or EPO but who you yourself says has tested positive (for whatever reason).

Your logic is full of holes.

Wow, I'm really angry aren't I?
S.
You're also really right! I don't understand why the mod didn't stop this or modify it from the start. Lance has done a lot for cycling. He deserves better from a forum that supports cycling.

And we all know how much the Europeans like an American coming over and kicking everyone's asses

Until a couple of the most recent posts. I actually thought I was going to see a bona-fide internet miracle: no one feeding the troll. It was close, though; very impressive.
