tmi: cycling

It’s not really tmi in the gross sense of the word. It’s tmi in the fact that I just don’t care what Armstrong is doing. I don’t care that he’s ‘landed in Oz’ or whatever. The only thing I’d be interested in is if he missed/failed a drug test or crashed and couldn’t race the rest of the season. Other wise, just shut up.

I understand why this is a big deal, but it is absolutely irritating. I do not care in any way, shape or form what Mr. Armstrong is doing. In fact, it makes me want to stop following cycling. I know, stupid right? But he is everywhere and it makes me kind of ill. It also makes it hard to find information about cyclists I actually like, because everyone is too busy peeing their pants with glee that Armstrong is back.

Yes, I am bitter. I also know that this season will not even be able to compare to last season — in that the cyclists I like won’t have as good a season. And yes, I am worried about Sylvain being on QuickStep, among other things. Also, I’m going to have to start liking Milram and pay more attention to Columbia and their ugly kits than I’d like (yeah, I still haven’t accepted them, even though I should). But, hey, I can still not give a shit about Astana — because I don’t!

Anyway, there are some other things I want to talk about, but every time I try, I see at article about Armstrong and I just end up pissed off. Maybe sometime later today.
