Check the attribution - I wasn't suggesting YOUR post was a troll, but the one "Pat" wrote. I agree entirely with what you wrote.

This would be like saying, "On Sept. 11th, planes hit the World Trade Centers" and calling that person a troll. Generally I agree with you, Mark, but I think you're off base on this one. -- Bob M in CT Remove 'x.' to reply |

Because he was using a tabloid report and passing it off as fact, even though the papers did it first. Newspapers shouldn't be using tabloids as sources, anyway. |

You didn't read the whole thread apparently. "Pat" wrote that Lance was keeping company with a 21 year old co-ed, based entirely upon a tabloid report. It was suggested that we give Lance the benefit of the doubt, and "Pat" replied that "there must be something going on", intimating that the tabloids were right. I find it amazing that any pro cyclist can stay married, actually - the demands on them and their family are horrendous at best - we're NOT talking about a lot of quality time, and there are a million reasons above and beyond a "21 year old co-ed" that could be at the root of the problem. Besides, anyone who believes ANYTHING they read in a tabloid can't be taken seriously. ;-) Mark Hickey Habanero Cycles http://www.habcycles.com Home of the $695 ti frame |
