Shows you 1 more time that he's a troll ;)

Why? becasue one of our times greatest classic riders was the better man on the Astana team that day? :rolleyes:

I agree that Airstream sometimes is trolling you with some AC stuff, but this time (and if not all, but most times) he has a point

That Contador didn't help Vino at all? Do you think that Moser was helped by Sagan in Strade?

Contador clearly helped him in that classic, the factor that Contador was there in the back who just pulled back AS and Gilbert was something to be scared off.

Don't you think Boonen helped devolder in his RVV wins? Ok he didn't pull for him but the presence of being in the back can more than enough.

It was pretty obvious that Alberto wasn't racing for himself that day, even though airstream wants us to believe that he did.

No he was racing for himself until vino went, just like Boonen in the RVV of '08 and '09 did until Devolder went.

Airstream is the definition of the word troll. He supports whoever he needs to support to troll the Alberto fans, whether it is Andy, Wiggins, Froome, Vino or Kenny van Hummel :rolleyes: and if there's no one to support he'll just bash Alberto and his fans to troll them. The fact that he believes Alberto should be shot in the head because of clinic reasons but has no problem with supporting "Alex" Valverde and Cobo says it all really

Agreed, when Vino went it was all for Vino, Alberto could've attacked but he didn't because they were on the same team. duh.

Meh... The trolling of us AC fans is a natural response after now 5 years of total dominance, if he wins this tour with a margin of 3 min++ I will personally start hating on him to
:p:eek:

AT ALL. There is a huge difference between real help and doing nothing for other. If someone had attacked and Contador had sat Vino on his wheel and towed him, it would have been real help. So it was nothing.

You overestimate your personal role on the forum otherwise you should look into the case from other viewpoint too. Contador fans troll other GC riders' fans f**ingly horrendously. And yet I never supported Alex, only Juanjo.

How about Sagan/Moser in Strade? No real help?

Help? I don't see any help there. Apparently, Moser's team status allowed him to try. He tried and won.
Did you catch the catch-22 reference in the clip? That shows the magnitude of Sagan's help.

I'm sorry I can be wrong. This clip doesn't give proper impression to make correct conclusion.
In the final after Moser had attacked, Sagan marked all the other moves without taking any pulls. Because Sagan has such a good finish, nobody wanted to drag him to the line. In the end it meant that many of the chasers ended up looking at each other instead of catching Moser. No Sagan = no Moser victory.
