    Teams & Riders Alberto Contador Discussion Thread

    Re: Why? Contador is absolutely done. He has been getting destroyed by Froome year after year. Injury or not, he would be destroyed by Froome. What I'd like to see is prime Froome versus Prime Lance Armstrong. That's the only way Froome gets competition. Not impossible to do, just need a...

    Teams & Riders Froome Talk Only

    Re: Ya this guy is looking like full on Lance mode, one needle in each arm, and one in each butt cheek :lol: Question is does he have help on the inside of USADA like Lance did. That's the only way you can get away from cheating is if you got help from the guys doing the lab tests.

    Teams & Riders Froome Talk Only

    So what does this mean Contador is now irrelevant. I think we all thought Contador was going to be THE MAN now. Did not think Froome would outclass Contador so easy.

    Teams & Riders Froome Talk Only

    Yep I was thinking the same thing....this performance had Rasmussen all over it. I actually want Froome to win, but it is kind of hard to defend froome when he is looking like pantani on that climb.

    I hope Contador tests him at Ventoux. Gotta get Froome in the red to win.

    Does ASO Ban Froome?

    So does Froome getting 2nd in the time trial to Martin mean he is not cheating....or did he pretend to run out of gas on purpose at the end to look more clean? Bah, if only Menchov were here this race would be worth watching.

    Does ASO Ban Froome?

    Lemond cheated everyone knows it As far as Froome is concerned I don't know if he is cheating or maybe he is just having the best tour of his career I'm not sure if the hate is coming from the butthurt Contador fans that infect these forums either All I know is with this much money on...

    Denis Menchov: True Russian Hero, and greatest cyclist in Lance Armstrong era.

    A midst the cheaters, wannabes, and hypocrites that was the Lance Armstrong era, only one man remains. This one man, this hero of the cycling world stood for justice, perseverance, and an unrelenting work ethic that catapulted him to glory. He is a legend that has only been beaten by his...

    LA - when will it all be over for you?

    Seriously why would anyone care so much about what happens to LA. I don't know the guy. All I know is he dominated the tour and kind of pssed me off when I was rooting for Menchov all these years. I'm more eager to see what happens in a tdf with Wiggins, contador, froome, and Andy schleck...

    usada ban / stripping not affecting lance

    Has lance been stripped of titles? That's what I want to know. According to some articles he's stripped, then some point out jurisdiction issues, then some say usada is recommending he be stripped to the tdf. So basically all this Is still up in the air while lance is essentially moving on. It...

    LA - when will it all be over for you?

    I think everyone has their own opinion. Apparently Lance is over it, he's still biking in some races here in USA, giving live strong speeches, etc. so maybe everyone else should get over it. The guy is retired from cycling, he's 40, and is doing his livestrong thing. I mean the best thing to...

    has lance armstrong been stripped of all titles?

    Its confusing. I'm reading articles with "stripped of all titles" but other articles seem to read usada is recommending the stripping, or there are jurisdiction issues, etc. Can some one clarify? Is he still officially a Seven time champ?

    usada ban / stripping not affecting lance

    I'll take the 3 Abrams tanks that might save a few battle buddies in afghanistan over an agency that prosecutes retired cyclists, lol. A better alternative to all this would be to award lance's titles to the one and only true champion of cycling, and possibly the greatest cyclist of all time...

    usada ban / stripping not affecting lance

    It is crazy. Lance just had a twitter run in Canada and hundreds showed up in support. I guess all this is for nothing by USADA in the end. It looks like everything will be as it was before, a he said she said argument. In the end I didn't think a usada judgment would really change...
