Talking with Griff yesterday about the lack of content on Betonte's site. He reminded me that he is off doing some photog stuff in Georgia. This how it went down:

Griff: He's doing some photog stuff in Georgia.

G-Fast: I thought they cancelled that race.

Griff: Not that one, the other one.

G-Fast: What?

Griff: Not the one where the chick is suing because she's paralyzed, but the other one where Rock Racing is suing to get in.

G-Fast: There's hardly any money in this sport. How the hell is a promoter going to handle a team suing to get into the race?

Griff: Don't know.

G-Fast: And that Rock guy. What the hell is he thinking?

Griff: Bad publicity is about as good as good publicity and way better than no publicity.

G-Fast: We're still talking about bike racing aren't we? Any publicity he's getting by suing to get into a race seems pretty weak. Speaking of which, how many pairs of Rock Racing Jeans have you bought?

Griff: Um....none. I wouldn't know where to get some Rock Racing Jeans. They seem like they are for people more on the scary side.

G-Fast: What the hell is the brand anyway? I know they don't sell as Rock Racing Jeans.

Griff: Rock of America or something.

G-Fast: He's wasting his time with the sponsorship of a bike team. We're too geeky of a demographic to buy $200 jeans. $200. Tufo Tubular/Clinchers for a $600 cross bike yes...$200 Jeans...no. He should be sponsoring some big time wrestlers or something, not Tyler Hamilton with his pipe cleaner arms. Seems like a waste.

Griff: Maybe.


Anyway, hope you are well.
