I think it would be great!

Frankenandy putting the old creche back together again. They get Svengali Kim back, hire a swimming coach, spend endless hours training on Pleasure Island (in the Canaries), don't have to "work" on those horrid TT bikes ever again, never have to ride a race they don't like, and take up where they left off on their wonderful journey to the Top of World Cycling, two brothers, linked arm in arm on the final podium of the TDF...

It would be great!

The schlecks were the man driver behind setting up their 'own' team, just a pity they ruined Saxo Bank by stealing all their riders.

The Schlecks then thought they knew better than all the DS' and had 'made it' so they sat for a year at leopard smiling at each other like a pair of 12 year olds. They ruined Leopard as they set the tone for the whole team which then produced; nothing.

Indeed, it is all Andy and Frank's fault. Oh wait, management hasn't made some salary payments it is rumored lately on time? How is that their fault?

Oh yes, Andy and Frank with that new Leopard-Trek team in 2011, how embarrassing they only managed 2nd/3rd place in the 2011 TDF. How pathetic of them.

Wait, seemingly the new merger, which is entirely due to the Leopard Management and financiers, not the Schlecks, are a major problem along with Brunyeel. Because the team has gone nothing but downhill since the Radio Shack merger. Not improved.

But somehow, this is entirely the Schleck's fault, not anybody else's.

After all the Schlecks good work they were then forced to merge with another ruined team and the Sclecks dont like being told what to do so they have now sat there for best part of the year doing nothing.

Now they may move on to a new team take all the riders from RSNT and I wonder what will happen. Kim Anderson who did great for Leopard will no doubt do great again, but hey the Schlecks can spend the year looking into each others eyes.

SO that will be 4 teams in as many years that they have been a major player in the ruination of. I dont have any sympathy for the Schlecks.

Talk about ignorance.

The hot rumor today here in Deutschland is that Jan Ullrich will be DS with Mercedes Benz and Nutella as the main sponsors.

It's not, it's from some German newspaper. Read on facebook about it. No idea which paper though so we need the guy that wrote here which paper it is.
