Dumbass,
Did you copy and paste from last year's post about the same thing? Or
did you recreate this literary masterpiece from scratch?
Just wondering.

I said 'legitimate; Show me a single newspaper in the United States that does this. Not even the
fucking National Enquirer does this. NONE of the tabloids does this, including TMZ.
What this means is Velonews and cyclingnews is less serious about their jobs than tall those
tabloids.
This sport is a fucking joke.

Dumbass,
Cyclingnews is not a newspaper and is not owned by a US company, it's
owned by the British, who apparently like to do this sort of thing.

Dumbass,
Bike racing is entertainment. Single topic coverage of
entertainment and serious news outlets don't go together.
Stop being so self-important. You devoted part of your life
to an unimportant pursuit (haha, pursuit) and CN devalued
it by publishing an unfunny joke? Spare me the violins.
I guess a serious publication about important news like
Sports Illustrated would never publish an April Fool's story.
Your Pal,
Sidd Finch

Google has a culture of doing that to their name. But they do not change their core business - which is
website searches. For media outlets, their core business is NEWS. And they write fake NEWS articles.
That would be the analogous equivalent of Google giving fake search results to bogus April Fool's
websites when you type in a search word. Google does not do this. So Google's April Fool's involvement
is quite superficial and in the spirit of their corporate counter-culture, but does not have anything to
do with their altering their core business service.
This is not the case for Velo-fuck and Cycling-douche.
Name one single fucking media outlet in the United States that changes their core business because of
something called April Fool's Day - show me one local, regional, or city paper that does this. One.
You can't do that. And why do both cyclingnews and Velonews do this? Clearly one is copying off the
other because no other sport website does this. That's seriously fucking lame.
Where's the article on cyclingnews that grills Vania Rossi over her CERA positive? Oh, that article
doesn't exist because the 'reporters' are so giddy with themselves about this April Fool's B.S.
The reason why L'Equipe doesn't publish April Fool's articles is the same reason it was the only news
organization that did an investigation about Lance's 6 positive EPO tests from the 1999 Tour de France.
They literally duped the lab and Lance to get at the truth.
If you read Velosnooze and Cyclingbooze, they don't do these kind of hard-hitting investigative pieces.
All they do is regurgitate press releases from <x> source or re-print some AFP drivel.
Kick all your asses.

Then how come the National Enquirer or TMZ or none of the other "entertainment" media does this?
Also, just because something is classified as entertainment doesn't mean it's not a serious business.
The entertainment business is a very serious business and just as legitimate as many other industries
and professions. In fact, the entertainment industry is probably more essential to society than many
other professions.
Beat you people down like Van Impe at a crematorium.

Calling that Swiss chimp Spartacus is one step away from purchasing a
Canceled Check blow up doll with working orifices. Not even "h" talks

This is a great question and I'm glad you asked.
Tyler is a smart jackass because he was at least able to get dumb jackasses
to help pay for his legal defense. Zirbel is an idiot for accepting a 2
year ban. He would have been making $100K easy over with Anorexic Drew
Carey's team had he not been eating supplements like he was going down on
Vania Rossi's carpet.
Zirbel's wife will dump him too even though he doesn't seem to know that
yet. The spouse is always the last to know, as they say.
I also seriously wonder if testing positive for a steroid doesn't harm his
chances for employment in all sorts of jobs. Employers will do a Google
search of Zirbel and see he tested positive and accepted a 2 year
suspension. 95% of the public doesn't know jack shit about supplemental
contamination. They will think Zirbel is a juicer.
Some of these cyclists are dumb as door knobs.

I can't believe the CCA is wasting money on this fucking nonsense:
http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/canadian-cycling-association-launches-race-clean-anti-doping-program
Do they really believe there is a doping problem in Canadian cycling?
Do they seriously think advertising that our sport is dirty will
attract new racers and membership? What an attractive pitch to
potential sponsors!
It pisses me off that these fucking lemmings can't find a better way
to use membership money, or God forbid Federal grant money, which
means wasted tax dollars.
An anti-doping campaign aimed at Canadian curling would be much more
appropriate.

This same CCA never got Geneviéve Jeanson to pay back a single penny of prize money from her entire
career as a rider doped to the gills on EPO. And now they are trying to portray themselves as the
anti-doping example to the world?
Canadian cycling is in serious trouble. All their riders suck.

The whole scene is run by fucking nerds. You know, the dorks in high
school who were too lame to make the football team, but loved the game
so they stuck around to become equipment managers. All they do is
fetish over nonsensical rules & have circle jerks over meaningless
minutiae. They are too spineless to get real jobs or actually
participate in the sport. And Canadians are too politely deferential
to Authority to criticize these weasels.
Did you know that the Ontario Cycling Association is so lame that they
do not have online racing licence registration? To register you have
to print out a PDF form, fill it out, jot down you credit card info
(to pay for the privilige of belonging to the OCA) and put in the
mail. I mean, when is the last time you wrote your credit card info
on a form & put it in the mail? Fuck people the '90s are long gone!
Get it together!

Well, I was going to suggest a campaign against steroids in hockey
but it isn't needed. You never hear about positive tests so you
know they're clean.

That's why Shania Twain and Lyne Bessette chose to move to America....to get away from those goddamn
idiots who choose to live in perpetual winter.

Dumbasses,
It would only be natural to ally with the former, fast teammate
against a real duo. And it was a good, well timed lead-out.

As opposed to a remarkably stupid attempt to win long.
So my guess is on the lead out.

Dear Dumbfuck,
Where is your evidence for this other than something you made up in
front of your computer?
