WHINING BITCHES

Predictor-Lotto to sue Vino and Astana






The Predictor-Lotto ProTour team is planning on filing a claim against Alexandre Vinokourov and his Astana team for loss of publicity. The Kazakh rider won the Stage 13 time trial before testing positive for blood doping, taking away victory from Predictor-Lotto's Cadel Evans who finished second on the stage and currently holds second on general classification. If Vinokourov is found guilty and disqualified from the race, Evans will be declared the winner of the stage, however will obviously have missed the publicity benefits associated with a stage victory in the prestigious race.

So Cadel's team is going to SUE Vino and Astana huh?




Answer me this........




How in the hell are you going to sue a team funded by the Kazakh government?



Oh....and the Kazakh's like goats.....



Because animal husbandry was central to the Kazaks' traditional lifestyle, most of their nomadic practices and customs relate in some way to livestock. Traditional curses and blessings invoked disease or fecundity among animals, and good manners required that a person ask first about the health of a man's livestock when greeting him and only afterward inquire about the human aspects of his life.

And I don't think the Kazakh goat farmers nor their government would be exactly flush with cash. So I wouldn't piss them off.


As for Vino.......good luck even locating him.......he'll be in Afghanistan fluffing the Taliban in a few days.
