It is cycling as a professional sport that represents the problem. It can transform someone into a liar.

I used to trapshoot. I was actually a junior national champion. My parents are trapshooters, so I'm more into target stuff.

I know I'll never feel that sensation of racing and winning again and that took a while to get used to. The Tour was a race I never thought I could lose.

If people really want to clean the sport of cycling up, all you have to do is put your money where your mouth is.

There are certain things that people love to do, and they can't really explain it. That's me and football. The game gives me hope. It lets me be myself.

Football's become more physical. I would have liked to have been born 10 or 20 years earlier to enjoy football with the same commitment and desire but without the toughness it has now.

First of all, I'm so glad that the city of Houston has a football team again. They have such great fans. I'm really happy for the people of Houston because they deserve a football team.

When teams play good football, it tends to create chances for the striker.
