Who would have though that swilling beer and ultra bad quality highly processed foods could do one harm?!? I am as equally shocked!

Am not that surprised, when you look at the major sponsors of a lot of these it is mostly budweiser, macdonalds etc etc - advertising must work or why would they invest in this so heavily

I’m shocked, shocked I tell you! Actually, not that shocked at all.

I often eat a pizza, just not usually while watching a film. I buy cheap Iceland pizza, then add about 2” of extra toppings, depending on what’s in the fridge.

All too true - every cross race I do, I have a Macdonalds or KFC a couple of hours before, chips after and then beer when I get home

As the saying goes "one does not simply walk into mid-pack medicority"

They'd be in for a shock at a single speed "race" excess drinking from the riders during the "race" tbf, the food is normally pretty good 😁

Well yeah, I would think so. Apparently there's quite an uptick in domestic violence on Super Bowl Sunday too. People go crazy rooting for laundry.

Same, SDA's consisted of a bottle of Lidl's finest Rachmaninov and a malt loaf for the cattle truck. As the Vibe said: "Our drinking team has a racing problem".
