[Bala Verde]

Looks like AC told the Schlecks to F off.

he is selling the stage?

 

[Parrot23]

Again one team 1,2,3 not good. Shades of Mapei.

 

[klodifan]

Klodi slowing to tow Lance?

 

[luckyboy]

Argh, these commentators [sherwen, liggett]

"I really hope the French press are watching this with the same eyes are we are. He is really showing to be a great champion..."

Lance rockets up the mountain! It's 1999 all over! He can still win the Tour!

Did AC just make a deal?!?!?!?! WTF?!?!?!

 

[Publicus]

Did AC just make a deal?!?!?!?! WTF?!?!?!

I doubt it. He's not pulling.

 

[frizzlefry]

I love how the forum goes from "wiggins will take the podium in the TT" to "LA attack is pointless". You guys are to much.

 

[Ibanez]

Keep it up Paul and Phil!! :thumbsup:

Right, ok.

 

[BroDeal]

Andy or Frank?? Who wins?

Does Andy give it Frank for his support this year? Or does Andy get it for his support of Frank last year?

 

[RdBiker]

Klöden is descending like a married man...

 

[53x11 in DC]

Schlecks in 2nd and 3rd tonight. Give AC a separate table.

 

[Anonymous]

i want some of whatever astana have got..

might perk me up a bit..

 

[The Barb]

He made a deal alright. Contador is gifting them the stage win.

LOL.

He has to be waiting for Armstrong.

That's the point!!

Andy gets it so they have symmetrical (well, sort of) Palmares.

1 Ardennes Classic
1 Tour stage.

 

[klodifan]

Contador just helped AS move past his own teammates, great move AC

 

[Bala Verde]

I doubt it. He's not pulling.

That's why. He said, i am not helping and you can go for the win, I won't sprint or screw you over...

I guess that's what he could have said.

I wonder how JB feels about that.

 

[klodifan]

LOL.

He has to be waiting for Armstrong.

He must be. He descending sooo slowly.

 

[The Barb]

Frank wins for sure I say.

Contador has conceded and Andy let's bro have it for the work he's done.

He was just trying to help out Lance, i mean Lance did gift him the tour... the least contador could do is assure a podium for lance
