You should've been on TS yesterday after the stage 
Remember that for today, just in case EBH manages another podium. |

I really hope Columbia starts to help EBH in the sprints. Cavendish has not shown anything who can be called form. I also think that EBH with columbia in his back, could take the pointjersey.
How should EBH stats be in pcm 09? |

Nothing..? Ok..he was beaten by Petacchi in stage 2..was crashing 10km. before the sprint in stage 3...and this is it sprinters will have today 3rd. sprinters stage. If Columbia but this Hagen against Petacchi..well stupid is light word.
About stats he should have at least 84 in TT and 81 83 for sprint..yeaah? 
Or wait..he has ben better then Cavendish

Makes perfect sense.
Cavendish was beaten by arguably the best sprinter ever, so logically that shows he's crap and the team should work for a guy who isn't even the second fastest sprinter on the 9-man roster 
It's like people don't think before writing insane things 
Pietropolli's a faster sprinter than Hagen and a much better climber, so naturally he has a much better chance of consistent high stage placings. Should LPR start working for him? Of course not!

But he is Boasson Hagen and he is Norwegian, so he owns all. |

Man Horner's really got super form right now. |

That is if Cavendish retires from the Giro... Even though he said he would finish. Boasson Hagen has showed that he can climb better than Petacchi this Giro. As long as Cav is in, then Edvald will help him. But if Cavendish abandons it could be an option, although it is a bit far fetched...
Edvald has also said that he will be helping Cav in todays sprint, so no surprise there... |

That's not what the guy said. The guy was saying Columbia should ride for Hagen instead of Cavendish or Renshaw who is the second choice (and logically so).

Is today the stage where Haedo manages to not get dropped and not be too dead to sprint?
Or is he going to get dropped on a random speedbump?

As much as I like Edvald, saying that Colombia should work for him in a bunch sprint instead of Cavendish is just about the most stupid thing i have heard in a long time.
For now Cavendish is miles better and faster than Edvald in a bunch sprint and Renshaw is probably faster too. |
