Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Yes.

Apparently, Rasmussen had missed 4 drug tests by not being where he said he was. Or by not saying where he really was. Four doesn't sound like a mistake.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Four sounds like monumental idiocy. Unless it's a standard sort of thing-why is this only a deal now?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Mexico but really he was in Monaco

Really, that's just a few letters in the middle! And, depending on where you are in Mexico, it might be just like Monaco, only without any royalty.

(Or it might be slobbering drunken college students groping one another in bug-infested fleabag motels, but I am sure they have that in Monaco too. Except all the college students have to wear tuxedos.)

Rabobank must be beside themselves. (The sponsor, not the team. Although the team too.)

I read something that said the team is out and something else that said that the individual team members were going to be allowed to decide whether or not they'd like to continue.

Since Rasmussen's been in the yellow jersey, that means they've been testing him after every stage, doesn't it?

Well, at issue were two random dates where they wanted to test him out of competition - nothing to do with the Tour.

Except that now it is.

This totally beats Potterdammerung.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Holy cow! That's completely nuts! And I was just watching this morning and being all excited and also somewhat confused because I clearly missed the rest of the kerfluffles, but this is the big one!

And also, VS coverage was driving me batty.

Oh, oh, and what do you guys think about his (no longer an issue) complaining about the press motorbikes being too close?

Oh, oh, oh, and did you see the streaker? 'Cause what is live television without a streaker?
