+1, unfortunately, it all come down to advertising dollars. AC and AS were unbelievable this year (I really hope they are clean). While the LA story may be more interesting to the general public, AC has a chance to become one of the greats in the history of Cycling - if he isn't there already...

I don't bother posting that often but here goes... Carlos Sastre said Lance Armstrong could use a lesson in respect after the Texan reportedly called the race last year "a bit of a joke." Wow, Sastre really showed him :rolleyes: It looks like LA was correct about last years podium trio...

You call what you do posting about cycling :rolleyes: You have no idea what I know about cycling. Anyway, so you post here all the time, I'm so impressed. With almost 1,800 posts it looks like you should try going outside and actually getting on a bike (assuming you even own one) instead...

I doubt that you are telling the truth, but if you are, I am sorry to here about your mother and I hope she is OK. You should consider getting professional help for your anger management issues. It is scary to think that you would be allowed to have contact with any children, let alone...

Hmmm... since 1997, the Lance Armstrong Foundation has raised more than $250 million to support people affected by cancer. What have you done for anyone other than yourself :rolleyes:

Wow you kid's are unbelievable. I don't think you understand what LA was saying about "legends" and you apparently have no respect or understanding of the history of cycling. LA is not saying the team should have worked to put him in yellow since he is a "legend". In the same interview, after...

We can agree to disagree. I don't think the green jersey was a priority for Colombia and Cav, not that they would mind getting it if they could. You are correct that Columbia-HTC should be getting Cav some media training!

He only went for points one time and he was in the green jersey at that stage. Cav does want to win the stage on the Champs-Élysées.

I agree. There was one stage that Cav raced for points - he was in green at the time and probably felt obligated. If he was seriously looking for green from the beginning, he would have been looking to grab points wherever he could, not just sit at the back. He is more interested in winning...

Yes you must be correct. You can tell by the way Cav has worked so hard to pick up intermediate points :rolleyes:

You do realize that Cav wasn't even thinking about the green jersey before he started kicking "Mighty Thor's" a** at the line and the press started talking green jersey. All Cav wanted to do was win some stages and finish the Tour this year - since he regrets dropping out of last years TDF. The...

It looks like Hushovd is being motivated by a guilty conscience today. I agree that Cav should have kept his mouth shut about the "green jersey stain - I chalk that one up to youth. Cav will learn to keep quiet. I was a Thor Hushovd fan until this tour, but he has proven to be a big time...

Sparticus was scary good and this stage could not have worked out better for Astana - getting max time and not having to defend the yellow. Le Tour almost seems fixed like pro wrestling. Although I would love to see Vande Velde win the Tour (I like long shot underdogs), and I still think...

The Kazakh Cycling Federation is going to take care of that in September - a bit late for the tour...

Sorry, I should have stated "in the USA" but thought it was obvious - the sport has been popular in Europe for a long time. Of course, I am opposed to reality ;)
