The 2013 CQ Ranking Manager Game

[Maaaaaaaarten]

And here I thought a mediocre Gilbert and a strong looking TGBM and Rolland would make move up again.

bye bye top 50

 

[jaylew]

Non-Gilbert owners rejoice! 200 points total for the Ardennes is pretty much a best case scenario for us.

That said, I only had one guy score more than the minimum 5 points in the three races and that was Anton in with 104 from FW and LBL.

Kittel came through today, though.

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

What's the point of not picking Gilbert, when all my picks I could pick instead of Gilbert, like TGBM and Rolland are sucking

Ah well, both of those still have plenty of opportunity to earn points in GC's, whereas Gilbert will probably earn less points than last season in the races still to come, because the WC is probably too difficult for him.

 

[taiwan]

Noone in the top 50 for LBL

 

[greenedge]

Ponzi, Porte and Goos dnf- but at least i had Gilbert in 7th place.

 

[Ferminal]

I wonder where on Earth Phil is going to find the rest of his points this season.

He'd have to podium all or win a few of CSS/Eneco/Plouay/Montreal/Quebec to break even.

Not that I can talk, he's 33% compared to Evans 22%

 

[search]

isn't he going to win the Tour de France? I trusted in Eddie Merckx when I picked him.

Bad week for me...

Hopefully Porte can go well at Romandie to drag me back up.

Same here except insert Talansky for Porte.

 

[Jancouver]

Still in the TOP 100 so I'm happy. Glad the classics are over and I hope to do better with points from sprinters and climbers.

AleJet retired ... what a sad news.

Even more sad for these seven.

Well, glad my downhill prediction post-cobbles classic was wrong. Also glad I dodged the bullet called Petacchi. He was never close to be included, but was always in consideration.

My team for Romandie
Bobridge
Kruijswijk
Anton
Rujano

Should get me between 0 and 20 points. At least they won't disappoint me... Downhill!!

Down to 80th

nice time for Berhane to show.

nice time for Berhane to show.

http://forum.cyclingnews.com/showpost.php?p=1077936&postcount=33

I still nearly had him but you can't fit them all in. Plus I'd already had my African-rider-at-Europcar gamble last year with Chtioui

 

[EvansIsTheBest]

+24 places last week, +21 this week, my team really is on the rise. Berhane should bring an healthy and unexpected amount of points this week too. With Pinot, Rolland, Anton and Kruijswijk Romandie should be good also. After a very sluggish start my team is finally starting to show signs of life

 

[Sylvester]

Come on, dear Ramunas, only 1000 points to go to bring me into the top 30!

[the asian]

Meersman is doing well in Romandie. Hope he can keep it up in the Giro as well.

 

[greenedge]

And slave Richie Porte moves down to 2:13 in GC at TOR, not good for me.
Hopefully he can crack the top 10 by riding a great ITT (though he might not be as strong) and Pinot retains his high placing.

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Hoping Pinot retains high placing and TAWK for the podium, then it will be an excellent week for me
