Katusha????? Just downright weird as well. And Lotto?????

And there really needs to be the option to not pick someone if you know nothing about the sport (mtb)

I couldn't figure that either. Is it because of his limbo status?

 

[Nick C.]

I definitely agree on the "don't know" option I just pick a familiar name which we can all say is a poor way to vote and those that follow will say derek Jeter wins gold gloves. Doh.

Whoever made the list must have weighed in on the possibility that Conti may have his big win of July stripped???

no LL Sanchez either who finished above evans in the rankings. I cant even work out why Omega Pharma Lotto are in the team options. Vaconsoleil deserve it more. :/

Well did LLS really deserve to finish ahead of evans in the rankings? I thought omega pharma lotto where one of the best teams of the year and that really hurts me to say that.

Man, they were 2 of the best riders out there. Super consistent results all year, and those results are rewarded, whichever ranking system you use. I don't think in a 'LLS vs. Cadel' way, as you seem to be taking it, it's really useful to argue who 'deserved' to finish higher in terms of this thread. The point is that, as Cadel was one of the top riders out there and so was LLS, they would both deserve to be included in the poll.

But FWIW, since you asked, yes, I at least do think he deserved to finish ahead of Evans.
