Don't be silly. The roster limit is 15. Even if you assume multiple benchings of each player per game, he would have to make over 4 substitutions every minute. Can't be done.
I'll give him a pass because he is having a kid, and likely was not as focused as he otherwise might have been. He did not seem on his A game all tour, and can be selfish at times, but he wants to win as much as anyone. He's another one of those riders who can do a bit of everything, and just loves to compete.
Wow. That will do it, barring something completely unfortunate. Hard to see Pog like that, but every cyclist has been there, though perhaps not THERE. He had me convinced that he was up to the challenge for two solid weeks. I wish he had been in top condition so we could have taken this battle all the way to Paris.
And being on the same team as Jonas, you'd think he'd have the same supplier. So....Jonas is doping without team help....Wout refuses to dope....the only one doping is @Horn Dogg?
Fair enough. From where I'm sitting, Pog has always had a talent advantage, but Vingo has better form and discipline. The talent advantage is often enough, but in a time trial, form matters. Pog is a talented beast, and if he ever perfects his form he'd be unbeatable. Or maybe the missed weeks of training due to the wrist injury are starting to take a toll.
Pog didn't look good? He beat Wout, the third place finisher, by 1:13...over 22 kilometers. He absolutely destroyed the rest of the field in spite of the bike change that everyone is criticizing. If not for Vingo's historic ride, everyone would be talking about Pog's incredible performance. They should be anyway.
I avoided this thread and any cycling news until I could watch the replay. I just finished. What a ride. I thought Jonas would win it, but not like that. The Tour isn't over, but that will certainly help his cause.
I made some changes to my streaming subscriptions recently, so I now have access to every season.
I've been binging season 1, which I haven't watched since it first aired. It's weird seeing how little personality Jeff Probst had back then, and how drab the overall production was. There was only one alliance, and those not in it frowned on it, but yet did nothing to stop it. The challenges were all very tilted toward the physically gifted. Few contestants seemed genuinely interested in winning. Hatch is remembered as a villain, but nothing at all in the editing has portrayed him as such...at least not yet. Very trippy.
I haven't tried it, and the info is dated and wrestling related, but you may be able to rewind to the beginning, or close to it. I've been watching the replays only.
