And it took Three Pages before these gems appeared? WTH is wrong with you people?
and don't get me started on the "I won't wear a team jersey unless they pay me" crap.
Nobody thought I was on team Radio Shack last Saturday or Euskaltel-Euskadie the week before. (I told them I was working for the CIA instead)

Brifters. I could kill when I see that word. Do any of you idiots realize that none of the manufacturers of shifters call them brifters?
