    Body language? What exactly are you seeing there?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,606 ✭✭✭MPFG

    This is my interpretation of the body language
    There are certain aspect to the body language that speaks of discomfort and lack of trust
    There is the distance between them ….which suggests strangers…which is very unusual after 3 or 4 days of team building. There is the mirroring….Roche mirrors the way Contador is sitting …which you would expect as Roche is new and Contador is of higher status and Roche is deferring to the boss …but Contador does not reciprocate this gesture and leans back out of the situation
    Their faces are not turned to each other which suggests lack of any bond and Contador is looking into the distance …which suggests he would rather be somewhere else rather in this particular moment
    You could say that maybe Contador is shy or cagey of new members….but this is a team building /getting to know you exercise …..but I don’t think the body language reflects this aim…Of course they don’t have to be friends but this picture reflects a lack of any warmth or comfort in each others’ company…..

    Or maybe they're just sitting beside each other taking in the view, and then got awkward when someone shoved a camera in their direction and said "lads, giz a smile"?

    Would love to meet the guy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,506 ✭✭✭✭Leroy42


    I would love to meet him as well. Ask him face to face just why he is making up all these terrible lies and untruths about our hero Lance.

    Just bitter is all he is, bet he is bent half over trying to carry that chip on his shoulder. I bet him and Landis made up all these stories while Lance was busy on the podium, and of course taking those 500+ drug tests.

    Well Tyler, while you were out walking your dog, Lance was out on his bike (ref the Nike ad) so that's why he beat you. Time to build a bridge mate.

    Maybe he was only 'offering' you the drugs to see what you would do. Seems once you accepted you were sent packing (well after a few successful seasons I'll admit....but sent packing nonetheless!) You obviously didn't have the inner strength that LA has to stand up to the bullies and beat all those evil drug takers.

    Go Lance!
