Tour de France, Stage 15 - "I Cut Your Head Off!"

www.CycleTo.com - Was he kidding, or is he cracking under the pressure?

Silence-Lotto cyclist Cadel Evans has fallen to third place in the Tour de France standings, behind Gerolsteiner rider Bernhard Kohl and CSC's Frank Schleck. Evans was asked about losing the yellow jersey...he answered the question, then lost his temper, too.

I think "or I cut your head off" was intended as a joke .. why is everyone taking it so seriously?

[burmababy6]

Cadel raced that tour on his own, if he swapped places with Sastre, he would have won by an hour.

Don't stand on my what?

[maxmanchild]

did he say, "dont stand on my dog or ill cut your head off" sounds like it to me

[batboyboogie]

@lizzoi1 think you're right, while he's laughing after he said it...

[devin673]

That is so funny. I'm sure he meant it as a joke; I don't think he was really all that pissed.

He is fucking quality.

English boy here, so maybe not so popular among the Aussies, but your boy is quality.  Nothing but respect. The more shutdowns the better.

Cadel is a great rider and genuine humanitarian . He is criticized because he just doesn't take any shit from rude arrogant European journalists. Put yourself in his shoes in this instance he's just ridden for 5 + hours being attacked by his rivals with no team support. He's tired and a bit frustrated and some arsehole nearly steps on his dog.

It doesn't sound like that and he doesn't behave like he's making a joke.
