@FDog
Astana definitely not performing as expected. But Nibali hasn't had huge amounts of action yet for them.
Quickstep not too far off where they should be, considering their best GC rider is Brajkovic and they have no cobbled star. They've scored points in 90% of sprint finishes and podiumed a stage in almost every race.
@Hobbit
Belkin finally put in some decent rides! Keep it up and who knows what could happen

Besides the stage win, not very good races for Orica - GreenEDGE. |

Moreno is proving to be a solid acquisition
Oh, and your better mood is certainly contributing to this fast pace

Don't expect much outside of the weekends though. 2 deadlines this week and two the week after will keep me plenty busy most nights

Yay. Tactical planning seems to deliver.
Radioshack doing really well, despite of the transfer period
Feyenoord(football) and Kelderman fanboy
PCMdaily Awards: 12x nomination, 9x runner-up, 0x win.

I hear that Froomedog.
But now that we have a stage win with Guardini I am not complaining (That is our season complete!!.
Terpstra puts in a few more good rides so I am happy I signed him. Also Boasson Hagen is putting in a few good displays.
Is a shame that Kwiatkowski is overpowered in PCM2013 quick sims (as also seen in others stories: such as Brewers' video story when he won the TDF in 2013!!!!!).
If Nibali doesn't do something in Trentino (ie top 5 minimum) I think we can agree that PCM2013 quick sims are not that 'realistic'. |

Tejay is on fire!
Sibiu - 6 Top 10 stage finishes (Tejay & Phinney) + 4th in GC is great consistent point scoring
Sochi- Top 3,Stage Win and Top 5 in GC is very strong. Again multiple rider score points (Tejay,Gilbert, Van Avermaet)
Azerbaidjan- Winning Youth classification ahead of Betancur and Quintana is not bad at all. To bad it is only 4th in GC again. |

@Jesl - RLT are a top team, you're just complaing cause you don't like some of their riders. You missed out this time, but you'll have the most retirements for a few seasons which means a great opportunity to rebuild
@Rider - He is a bit yeah, oh well. Perhaps you should have signed him instead, i know i was happy with the money and Coquard! Nibali has been doing ok and Trentino should be good for you. I'd say the results are going well in terms of realism, no ridiculous breakaways yet!
@knockout - Indeed a great spell for the American that really surprised me. BMC having a good run in the fantasy games atm

Propably because BMC is a very strong allround squad with strong riders for TT, ardennes,flandriens and some decent stage racers.
On a quick note: After April is finished now 20/43 races are done!
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters!

Well Froome rescued what should have been a better three races for Sky.
Porte and Hagen doing well is annoying, but Talanskiy going well is a bonus. my sprinters are not getting a look in yet, hoping some better results for them in the second half of the season.
Keep up the the fine work TMM.

Well, Radioshack isn't one of the top teams, but okay.
And I just complain because I missed out on Kelderman & Degenkolb. Still angry! Nah, but had some great deals.

Suck on that EPIC! Nearly half way done in races (except August will suck with Aosta and Portugal)
@Smowz - EBH has surprised me there with some strong results. Porte was always going to do well wherever he went. Talanksy has really held his against tough opposition.
@Jesl - Just get them for season 2 then, shouldn't be hard
@welker - Crash or bad time trials? He was on the startlist at least i guarantee that (i check when i make it, then when i load it, then after the first stage)

It didn't include Henao Nieve or Anton... It was the one in the planning sheet. Azerbaijan was the big one for you with Henao, Sanchez, Nieve and Anton in attendence

So my final deadline of the Term is Friday giving me lots more free time! I'm going away on the 22nd and my plan is to finish Season 1 before then... Sounds a lot but i've stopped playing Career mode now and i have loads of Karl pre-written. The MFS will be my second Daily priority after the Man-Game
