McEwan didn't make the time cut. Not a good day for the antipodeans.

Anyone know what happened to O'Grady, and how badly he's hurt?


Broken ribs for O'Grady and a dislocated shoulder for Rogers
according to Jeffs new site (bikeradar.com).



A lot worse than that for Stuey..... Fractures on 5 of his front ribs, 3
fractures on back lower ribs, Punctured lung and a fractured shoulder. :-(

AMazing, o grady wins paris roubaix... not to mention finishing it like
how many times? The most dangerous, treacherous race...but in the tour
he really 'spits the dummy'...is that the right expression? Screws the
pooch? Whatever...


I think that the phrase your looking for it "Rides Like Henry."


haha, or Throws like Mary....


That was definitely a 3 pointer.

According to a a Danish CSC press release, O'Grady has a punctured
lung, a broken collar bone, a broken shoulderblade, 5 broken ribs and
3 "tapper" in his back. It says it is important to emphasize that his
back itself is not broken. I don't know what "tapper" are.

Sounds pretty bad, but I suppose it could be worse. He's a tough guy,
I hope it doesn't stop him for good.

The 4 stages of life:
1. rubber
2. leather
3. late-leather
4. china

Looks like O'Grady skipped late-leather and went straight to stage 4.


You're a ****ing idiot. A ****ing obnoxious clueless ****ing moron.

No. But sometimes his posts are more annoying than usual. And I thought
this one was particularly clueless. Even stage 1 kids break bones when they
hit the ground that hard.
