We all follow cycling. We are fully aware that on every race day, there is someone in the peloton who is cheating. And so many times we watch a great performance and later find out that the winner was a cheat.
Cheating is so pervasive in this sport that even our own Tigger has tested positive.
See, the Frites team is playing a Giro fantasy game. No, not while hanging with Tiger Woods and his porn star bimbos. Our game is simple: Pick the top 3 for the overall GC, mountains, sprints, and team competitions. The only rule was to get your picks in before the start of the Giro.
Well, Tigger didn't. And guess who is leading the competition after stage 1. Yeah, the only player to hide his the whereabouts of his picks. Shameful. Disgusting. Disgraceful
I contacted the UCI to see what leverage we have in getting Tigger thrown out of the competition. So far, no one has returned my calls but it is the weekend so maybe nobody is in the office. I'm going to send an email to Pat McQuaid tonight and ask that the UCI follow up on this egregious act of flim-flammery committed by one of our very own riders.
But regardless of Pat's resolution to the matter, Tigger will now always be under suspicion. All of those children that followed his updates will now be disappointed that their hero has taken the easy way to victory.
Way to go, Tigger. You didn't think of the children, did you?
It was a one-nutted chimera in me that made me do it!!!! It got all jacked up on testostone and forced me to infuse my roster with another person's roster.
ReplyDeleteI just want to put this behind me and focus on the future.
