I'll betcha Lance Armstrong hopes this story has legs!

These days when I see the news cycle dominated for days by stories like this it makes me wonder what we're being distracted from....

One dude with an imaginary girlfriend and another that rides bikes for a living doped up? Surely it's not worth more than a couple days coverage at most. I'm sure there's a bunch of things going on that we really need to know about.

I always think the same thing...

our media loves to tell us what is important, meanwhile in our larger cities.....

I agree to an extent that this is silly news but deadspin and espmickey mouse are not the places to go for serious stories, they are for the sports junkies. This story got coverage from the real news sites because there was nothing else going on, thankfully there were no " if it bleeds it leads " events happening.

OK, I just saw the guy.




He's gay. lock



Yep.



He could also have a form of that mental problem where you project illnesses on those you love in order to garner attention.



But, I think he's gay from what I can see. It's his face--his eyes.


This of course, makes me feel tremendously sorry for him because although there was this outpouring of support for him due to the 'deaths', the pressures to conform and the effects on your career for being 'out' are tremendous. People really don't get how hard it is in some careers or environments, and asking a person to be a 'pianeer' and lead the way is kind of unfair. SOme people really don't want that. shrug



Too bad he's not bi. I have a bi-football player fantasy, lawd.


How do you know what his sexuality is? His eyes? Really? Smh
I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think.
