Teams & Riders Alberto Contador Discussion Thread

[xrayvision]

It sounds like he wants up his sponsorship to 1 billion per year.

Now what is the difference between our posts? None as none of us posted any source for our claims. . .

if you want a source you can just ask for it, no reason to be an *******.

I am sorry if any one has already answered this, but why was Contador trying to give a clean chit to Froome?

The Sky team is already worried about doping allegations. Could have used it as a weapon against Froome?

I was just hoping that he will put in some innuendo that Froome is c**** if he doesn't have a bad day in Alp d'Huez. May be somehow force Sky to believe that Froome having a bad day is good for team's reputation.

Bring it to the clinic.

A bit sensitive aren't we?

I don't think he is. You were being excessively mean for no reason in the world.

An extraordinary amount of gratuitous derision and ( that ****ing emote should be banned ) in this forum. It is contagious. Not everything has to be replied to with sarcasm.

I do it myself, so I ain't dissing ya. Had to point it out though.

Or you could simply just ask for a source rather than act as if there is no such thing.

 

[Zam_Olyas]

He is always like that.

I´m sensitive???

I post a simple information, and you as an administrator replies with a smartass remark, if you wanted a source you can just ask for it, no need to turn into an azzhole pretending this is your personal playground.

So much being made over such an innocuous post, if you want to be offended by something be offended by Beech Mtn's post

Omg, I don´t know if I should laugh or cry. But pretty well done.

looool yeah

lol....... nice job on photoshop. only the hand didn't fit in correctly.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

The most important time for this is right now. Deals need to be being made. Katusha, Movistar and Belkin.

belkin have no interest in winning this tour. only saxo have.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

I think this is all wishfull thinking, guys. Alien and Co. are on another level. Sandbagging aside, there's no way Porte's getting shelled before the last climb.

And even if he does, Froome could probably just TT the whole stage and still put minutes into them.

what are you talking about. froome will follow contador and quitnana but after madeleine they can really f*** him in the valley with sending teammate sup front and bridingh with double or even a triplle attack.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

Thing is guys you say what if Froome leaves it too Porte, im pretty sure Porte will bridge with Froome and go with Contador. Im sure you'd agree its unlikely to happen twice Porte showed yday he was stronger than anyone but Quintana and Froome.

yeah we saw that on 2nd pyrenee stage porte certainly isn't a stable factor

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

most important though is that if sitll in good spotion saox send kreuzige ron glandon, brailsord will panick and sky will blow up on glandon.

 

[wwabbit]

Heeeeeerlp... Cannot... Unsee.... What... I've.... Just.... Seen....

 

[murali]

I think that there will be an attack on the first time up alp d'huez, forcing sky to use most of their engines. Then they can recover a little bit in the descent. followed by another string of attacks to completely break Froome. Though porte claims that mountains are froome's bread and butter, i don't think he can actually cope with multiple attacks.

I am betting on a contador-quintana-garmin alliance to break sky.

You not man enough to aknowledge you were totally wrong and i was totally right

just watch tomorrow. Sky will be firing on all cylinders.

p. from what I';ve read so far you have been wrong on all accounts again this tour

Its ok, not everyone has to know a lot about cycling

Do you rate probability of that in an serious way? There is a little problem. Froome is ready to beat all the guys in open fight too.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Saxo losing the yellow helmets

 

[ILovecycling]

I figured out how to beat Froome
They have to isolate him and then attack him always when he is getting bottles or food.He will have to chase&get hungerknock

That is quite disturbing to me for some reason.
