Just a straight-up question - What is your favorite team in real-life cycling?
Note: This is open, so you could list them by division, or who is #1 overall
Mine are -
Overall: Silence-Lotto
ProTour: same
Continental Tour(s): Team Slipstream-Chipotle powered by H30 |

Now that I've shocked you half to death, I have no favorite teams, just riders

PSV - Have you ever seen Austin Powers, I have to echo Nigel Powers sentiment on the Dutch when it comes to cycling teams  |

If that were true, I would call you a Fairweather fan
EDIT: Oh god, I just noticed CrueTrue's post (but being Danish he is not a fairweather fan)

Okay, FDJ is okay, but anyone who isn't Danish or works for CSC is a fairweather fan for choosing them, as they have one the last few ProTours |

No, they haven't won anything yet - I'm American and a Slipstream fan, but CSC has won all 3 ProTour titles, and have had a great team for every year, so yes, unless you are Danish you are a Fairweather fan for liking CSC. |

OK I'll take the heat!!!
However if my defense, I was a er-em JaJa fan, so when Bjarne took over changed to CSC-Tiscali, things got more interesting, he brought on JaJa, as well as Tyler. Then he brought on, Voigt, then Julich another couple riders I like.

Fine, if you are a CSC fan because of a rider then that is not as bad as being just a fan of a team |

Pro Tour:
CSC
High Road
and if you know cycling well you can guess why, it has nothing to do with how good they are.
CT:
Slipstream |
