So Froome has used doping from 2011 - 2013 according to you?
On my opinion yes BUT I don't hate him for that. Actually I don't hate any rider for doping cuz I don't think there is a good rider who's been clean for the whole of his career.
I simply find it suspicious how a nobody becomes the best in world.
Of course it is suspicious. Thats a reason i didn't like Froome for a long time. But every guy that rides this well for about 3 weeks is suspicious to me...
I make an example...
Guy A dopes since day one...that means he will be known as a good rider, because he never had a known jump of performance
Guy B starts doping after 10 years...that means he is suspicious
My conclusion: Every rider amongst the best is suspicious to me. Even guys like Degenolb, Kittel, T.Martin(just to show, that nationality does not matter)

Lol, I can bet Contador will gain time on Froome both on mountain and TT. He beat froomebot by a minute in the last TT, same will happen now.
This one minute difference was "destroying" Froome, because Froome is the better Time-Trialist. And one minute is very much for almost 10 kms, don't you think so, too?
Edit: My post wasn't missing the point. My post was about the fact, that guys who praise Contador as a god, call others "Froome Fanboys"... thats missing the point.
Alright fair point, I didn't see gravus' post since it was the last one on the previous page. Then again, I don't take someone serious who projects a minute difference in a 10 KM long TT.

That's the route. Not even 10 Kilometers. So much for "destruction".
Froome in top condition will destroy Contador tomorrow with 2 min 
If that's not fanboying I'll jump from 10 metres on my head

Don't you think that Froome is a superfavorite? He has a very bad form and is still 2nd with just one minute down...Hell even Valverde and Purito count as favorites...and that makes Contador and Froome superfavorites 
And no I don't think Froome will beat Contador because they're EQUALLY talented and Conta is in better shape + the gap is in favour of the Spaniard, who'll just follow 
If they are EQUALLY talented, why aren't they both the superfavorites?
about fanboying...

At least I am not saying like''Conta will crush Froome every time when we hit a mountain''.
Or ''Schleck will win every mountainous and hillyh race if he is on top form''
I just don't like Froome and I like Contador.
Oh and Froome has lots of ego.
Do you remember when he said ''Almost went over your head Alberto Contador.Little care next time.''
And he doesn't let Wiggo to the Le Tour squad.He thinks like he is God of cycling.

You know you don't got enough fire power when you need BMC to take up the chasing.
