I think you are more crazy about him than I am about BMC and evans.
And that is pretty hard to achieve;)

Cant think anything else but how D-word'd that team was.. LOL :rolleyes:

other then that i thought how pathetic it was to see azevedo slaving himself for galdeano when he was much better himself :eek:


then again he wasn't much of a leader and when given the chance to race for himself in 06 and was one of the big favorites for the win, he showed up at the tour completely out of shape

I was thinking. What if Alberto doesn't win the Vuelta. Would I ever be able to overcome such disappointment? :(

Well, for starters congratulate Purito on his first ever GT win. :D

Alberto Contador, who was not able to ride the Giro, said that “more than feeling envy” while watching the race, he recalled “many good times from last year, both in the race and with all the fans who treated me so well.” “It’s a very special race for me, and in the not-too-distant future, I’ll be there again,” he added.

Nice. :) :) :)

you'll just have to wait two weeks till he wins the double in Valkenburg

Oh that would be so awesome but I can't see it happening. I think he has a good chance to win the time trial though.

Have you met him? Have you spoken to him? If not, and you claim to 'love' him. Then I'm afraid that you are, indeed, obsessed.

Sorry.

No need to be sorry.

I would love Purito to win a GT but not one Alberto participates in. :p

Well, all I'm saying there's only two potential winners of this year's Vuelta.

Alberto (99.9% chance of winning)
Purito (the other 0.01% chance)

Interesting to see what you said before this years Giro and last years Vuelta.

They are different circumstances but cycling is renowned for its unpredictability and even not considering crashes etc, Contador may not be on top form and 100 other scenarios could also occur.
