The 2012 CQ Ranking Manager Game

[Hugo Koblet]

9 minutes to go. Seems as though I'll be here after all

Just got through all the PM's. I had to manually edit a few teams because a few didn't bother to send in their teams based on the right formular

Still one team above 7500. If I don't get a PM within 7 minutes I'll just delete the cheapest rider on the team.

 

[Ferminal]

Majka or Bertagnoli. Majka or Bertagnoli. An entire season of knowing who to cheer for or against depends on this decision. 20 minutes. I cant make up my mind.

Majka, don't be a fool, you need some fanboy picks!

Never let your feelings get in the way of your judgment.

Also Fermi, is that for real your team?

[gerundium]

so.... did any of you consider rob ruijgh?

 

[roundabout]

Yes, I did. Can't remember why I didn't pick him in the end

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

so.... did any of you consider rob ruijgh?

i did, but ultimately i said no.

 

[Ferminal]

Of course it is, fanboy picks...

 

[The Hitch]

Yes, I did. Can't remember why I didn't pick him in the end

25 is not so young any more. He just had his best season, risky to expect him to significantly increase on that.

 

[roundabout]

Ferminal's strategy is an interesting one.

 

[The Hitch]

Of course it is, fanboy picks...

Im as much a fan of Cancellara as anyone, but what is he supposed to win?

Srade Bianchi MSR, E3 RVV, PR, 2 Tour tts, Olympic Road, Olympic It Vuelta it, World Road, World IT???

I guess if he pulls it off thats one hell of an advantage.

1860 points last Olympic year. If he does that again it's good enough.

Man you have a lot of Colombians. Looks like a team Ryo and Dekker would come up with if you put them together.

Would be easier if you posted points with team if possible

Rujano is an interesting choice. I didnt pick him cos he will probably go back to South America after Giro.

 

[roundabout]

I think Ruijgh still has more to come as I started to really notice him only in 2011.

Looking forward to seeing Madrazo, Jakob, the host and the reigning champion amongst others.

And a better Lanqawi

He had both a much better Giro and much better Lanqawi in 2005 and got 774 which is 250 on this year.

You are aware that durbridge is focusing totally on the olympics (track) next year

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

I'm confident with him as a pick

 

[Ferminal]

Yeh, all he has to do is come 3rd in the nats and a few other time trials, if he rides the Worlds he will make well over 100.
