Uniball and the Magic Smoking Crusade...

Why is it that EVERY FUCKING ARTICLE about Lance Armstrong has to mention that he's a survivor of testicular cancer, especially when the article is about a smoking ban?

Seriously, smoking doesn't give you ball cancer. Bad genetics and doping are usually the factors that cause testicular cancer. I just don't understand why it has to be mentioned in the same damn sentence. Take this one, for example, from an article about the roll out of the anti-smoking anywhere crusade...

On Thursday, when seven-time Tour de France winner and cancer survivor Lance Armstrong stood outside the Texas Capitol to tell supporters that he was calling on lawmakers to support a statewide smoking ban, about seven protesters held signs telling him to "butt out" or "Go back to France."

The funny thing? This is an article about the protesters being treated unfairly by State Troopers, not about the ban or Lance Armstrong. The press falls all over this guy but really, everyone else is just sick of his shit. Of course, they're really going to enjoy him telling them that they can't have a drink and a cigarette at a bar.

I'll let you all in on a little secret... we smoke to make the annoying losers like Lance Armstrong go away. We don't want you little pipsqueaks around, get it? If you've ever whined about a club or a bar being 'smokey', you're one of those people. People stopped inviting you out because, really, you're a goddamn drag.

Just wanted you to know.
