there is almost no reason to afraid Andy before tour..(some stupid reason classics only)
Personally I'd be more afraid of Horner in stage races. He's actually won one. Two, even.

Why, oh why, oh why, do you have to use the same jersey with a little bit different colors as Sky and Leopard last year? Sure it looks good, but it's so boring my eyes are going to melt!
Did you see the US champion jersey? I think I'm gonna kill myself.[/quote]
yeah, that was very ugly.
ugh... the german champ jersey too.[/quote]
Yeah, I can't believe they are making my friend Matt Busche wear that. I'll make sure to give him crap when I ride with him when he comes home this summer But if I was getting paid a salary to be the US Champion, I wouldn't care honestly!

Flavio Becca basically accuses Saxo Bank / Contador of bribing one of the CAS judges...
"When I saw that in the CAS (Court of Arbitration for Sport) commission, an Israeli judge will decide the fate of Contador and soon after discovered that Saxo Bank has its own training camp in Israel, I do not think we are on track," said Becca to Le Quotidien.
"An Israeli judge will issue a ruling on Contador, and Saxo Bank is doing its training camp in Israel, even being officially received by the Government. There are two facts that can not be separated. At this point, I think everything is already decided," said Becca.
You know how Andy Schleck only goes for the Tour and LBL and nothing else? Bruyneel says that approach is WRONG DAMN IT.......
.....from now on he'll ignore LBL too.
Brilliant concept Johan. As someone else pointed out on the CN forum, guys like Contador, Valverde and Evans race to win and get brilliant results all season before the Tour while Andy does nothing.
Then they beat Andy at the race that Andy spends the entire year saving himself for.
Then they spend the rest of the year kicking his ass at the rest of the races.
In short, Andy Schleck really isn't all that great.

It wouldnt surprise if this case was put back until he retired, then serve a pointles 2 year ban just prove then do something about it.
Its beyond pathetic that he has not been banned yet, if there was evidence it came from contaminated meat then we would of heard it by now, but we haven't so its a blatent pitiful excuse and everyone has seen right through it so far.

Valverde to race Tour Down Under, thats a must watch for me being a huge Valverde back, really excited to see him back, and for those who may think my mind has change, I still believe he is innocent for actually taking no banned substance but I can see why he was banned and just glad its over and hes back
Valverde completed his ban, I have no problem with that, he has paid his penalty for his mistakes which he has made, now time for Contador and any others to do the same, regardless of how big a rider you are.

Yes. And to have any hope of being taken even remotely seriously, you really do have to explain why Valverde's blood was found with Fuentes
But if I was getting paid a salary to be the US Champion, I wouldn't care honestly!
