Cyclists Are Tougher Than Football Players

By spokesman | January 19, 2010

This past weekend, the Minnesota Vikings beat the Dallas Cowboys by a score of 34-3 in a playoff game.  After the game, Dallas Cowboy linebacker Keith Brooking complained that Minnesota had run up the score.  Brooking said “I thought it was totally classless and disrespectful.  This is the NFL, that’s not what this is about.  I don’t think there’s a place for that..”.

Hey Brooking - you’re a wimp.  You’re paid to stop them from scoring.  If you can’t do it, get out of the league.  In the Tour De France, there is a time cut-off each day.  If a rider can’t keep up, he is thrown out of the race.

As I see it, those spandex wearing, shaved leg cyclists are tougher than the 6′1″ 241 lb Brooking - and if I had his e-mail I would let him know it.
