Ils (ces posteurs des Etats-Unis) sommes les grandes crapules. Mais ne fait tu pas le grande faux pas ici. Oui, mon Francais suck le weenie grande, mais le nationalisme est le grande mal de notre siecle.

Lol, I don't speak frog but this is funny....

the frenchman made some good points though

It sucks indeed but I think the message came through.
And it was funny.

Flatlander, thank you for illustrating my point.

[PNWbrit]

If this is true, and the French should know this unless they are truly out to hang an American, it will kill the sport ie. revenue stream for America. How many Americans have dumped more loot than any other combined country over there the last eight years? If this enthusiasm dies in America that race will end up like a weekend MS Race. Oh no, we're Europeans we love cycling. Yeah, and you have the ability to support yourselves and your systems without tourism. The entire EU is just an amusement park for wealthier countries to come experience and le tour is one of the attractions. The spirit of the sport is bullshit, you fry an American over this and it's done.

Or it's a further publicity building stunt. We tested and tested and tested and he came up clean so he must be, we thought he might not be, but oui he's a clean machine.

One of the most stoopid posts ever.

Ah, c'est bon. Les habitue' me dis que mon francais est mal. Ou mauvais. Je ne sais quoi.

Maintenant, chantons:

Buvons buvons buvons
Le syrup typhon, typhon typhon.
L'universal a panacee'
Un petit verre
Lui fuit saluterre
Rien ne pourre
Ne resiste.

(ou quelque chose comme ca).

J'aime la France. Vive La France.

"The last time a final yellow jersey was disqualified from the race was in 1904 when defending champion Maurice Garin was stripped of his title when it was judged he had taken a train during the race, rather than completing the full route." -cyclingnews.com
That's how it's done. If you're gonna cheat go big.

C'est vrai: je suis un traître. Un traitre de les ideals de l'administration present. Alors, un terroirist. (un autre petit fait). Le gout de terroir.

[The AD]

Yeah, blaming the French is pretty weak. Either Landis doped or he didn't. I would find it extraordinarily hard to believe it's some screw job by the French.

"Le grande weenie." For some reason we were never taught that expression in French class!

Non, Non, NON
C'est le weenie grande, tu sais.

And to think I last studied this stuff in 1973.

Quel surprise! M. PNWBrit n'aime pas les Etats-Unis!

Il est comme on dit en Anglais un "fucking broken record".

feh.

[philippeR]

This is cracking me up.
Now I've a signature.
Really, if you're Engrish is as good as your Franponais, you should consider a carreer in japanese advertising.

[The AD]

Non, Non, NON
C'est le weenie grande, tu sais.

Mais naturellement.

[PNWbrit]

Quel surprise! M. PNWBrit n'aime pas les bigots américains stupides qui se considèrent comme meilleur que le reste du monde.

fixe il pour vous

S'il l'on essayer, on est saute' ici. Peut etre les peuple est bon mais quelqu'un est un trou de cul.

Merci M. Highman. C'est des Américains comme vous que rendez en acceptant tous les abrutis possible.

Check it out, bro: my brother-in-law is from Nottingham. He spent 20 years bitching about the States to anyone who would listen. He went back because his mom was sick, spent six weeks there and applied for citizenship the week he came back.

I don't think America is perfect, or necessarily better than any other particular place. But it is my home and it irks me to hear your one-note song over and fucking over.

Back to the cycling.

Is it that my views differ from yours or simply just the British part that really irks you? Don't bother with an answer I really don't care.

Nottingham? that'd make taking Somalian citizenship seem attractive.

Actually we're on the same page politically, and we've been over this before. We're pretty much on the same page musically as well. What irks me is your constant mean-spirited sniping.

America is a place like any other, there's good and bad. You harp on the bad and on your distaste for America, I've never heard you say a positive thing, it gets old.

Sorry about the skiing, mountains and love for where I live that I tried to express and share.

I'm planning on bludgeoning a small forest creature to death with a shovel in the morning - perhaps I can post about that?




You're right about us sharing a fine taste in music through.

The Effect of Alcohol Consumption on the Urinary Testosterone /
Epitestosterone Ratio


By Dr Simon Davis B.Sc., Ph.D.


Summary


Intoxicating beverages contain a number of different forms of alcohol,
the major constituent of which is ethanol. When a beverage is consumed
the ethanol content passes through the stomach wall and digestive tract
into the blood stream. Once the ethanol enters circulation it begins
to alter the bodies' biochemistry. One such reaction is to
differentially increase the rates of testosterone (T) and
epitestosterone (E) metabolism. The overall effect of this reaction is
to increase the ratio of T to E excreted in the urine.


It has been reported that ethanol consumption can increase urinary T/E
ratios by 30% - 277% in healthy individuals. Observed changes in
plasma T/E ratios can occur with the consumption of less than 2 pints
of lager. The ingestion of ethanol by an individual will increase the
T/E ratio observed in a urine sample.


It follows that if the effect of ethanol on T/E ratios is calculated
relative to urinary E concentrations, it can be seen that increases in
the ratio are exponential as E concentrations decrease. Individuals
with naturally low E concentrations could, therefore, experience
increases in T/E ratios of ? 940% greater than increases experienced in
an individual with normal E concentrations. Calculations estimate
that in individuals with low urinary E concentration, ratios of 17 to 1
or higher could have resulted from ethanol consumption without any
administration of exogenous T.


The current T/E ratio test as performed by Kings College Laboratory and
approved by the UK Sports, the IWF and IOC cannot discriminate between
a 13 to 1 T/E ratio resulting from ethanol ingestion or a 13 to 1 ratio
resulting from endogenous T administration.

I love this theory! Floyd bonked, got shitfaced, came back to crush everyone else the next day, and tested positive because he drank so much the night before.

Cheers!
