Do you know who will be leading Qucik Step.
Are they likely to be leading Bettini or Boonen |

Most likely both although after Bettini's injury at Tirreno, Boonen might have the edge.

You're probably right although I don't think Boonen is 100%. I think he has chronic back pain that could be a real problem for him this season. I hope not.
It looks like Milram, Gerolsteiner, CSC and Liquigas are loading up their big guns for this race. Doesn't look like Disco is going to do much nor Ag2R (one of my personal favorite teams). But fortunately, I'll get to watch the race here in the USA! Vs. has a weekly cycling show on Sundays and they are going to show MSR (not in its entirety of course) as well as highlights from Tirreno-Adriatico! So I am excited to actually see some of these races on TV rather than watching them on my computer screen! |

Everyone is expecting Milram to deliver.
It's the only munumental classic they can truly win. For this very reason I'm sure Milram won't win.

eh we'll see. Mr. Ale-Jet really hasn't shown awesome firepower this year but I'm hopeful that my current team (in PCM) will do well. Currently though, I'm inclined to favor Pozatto. He won it last year and he seems to be in excellent form this year. Should be darned excitin' though! |

I feel sorry for you, cmfos. It's too bad that American television isn't more interested in cycling than it is.
About winning chances .. well, I have this weird feeling that someone unexpected wil win it. There's no doubt, though, that some teams really are aiming for this. It will be interesting to see if Haedo is worth anything in European races. |

In speaking of coverage, is Cycling TV going to cover the race? I looked and it isn't in the schedule. |

You might also be able to watch it on Sputnik. I'll look into it and return when I know more.
Edit: No MSR on Sputnik
