google his image, looks like he hasn't been near a bicycle in a very long time, hence the reason why he just doesn't get it.

Not that I would ever wish this in a million years, but I'd like to hear how he answered a question asking if he would think it was funny if the kid in his profile pic got hit by a car while on a bike. I'd like him to think about that for a little while.

Though they are professionals and crashes are part of the sport (although getting hit by a television car is not supposed to happen!), they are still human beings and they are people's loved ones. I was with a group of 8 people later the day that wreck happened and only 3 of us were cyclists/cycling fans. Everyone in the room was horrified and disgusted by that accident replay and I know laughing was the last thing any of us was thinking of.

It just seems inhuman to me to find joy/humor in this. I bet he and Michael Vick are friends.
