Ok:

Contador - FC Barcelona
A Schleck - Manchester United
Armstrong - Juventus (some rather questionable results from the last decade and in the 90's, they were known to have a rather large medicine cabinet)
Wigg(ga)ns - Tottenham

Juventus' nickname is The Old Lady, was that intentional? :D

Juventus actually got caught with their match-fixing and bribes. I would more go with AC Milan due to the similarities (san Pato) to Retirement Shack.

...and they don't have anyone themselves, as good as Sir Bradley other than Lance! :D You've got to laugh really...

Now that is really funny, although I'm assuming you were kind of being serious...I hope. In case you are serious, and let it be known that I'm not by any stretch of the imagination a Leipheimer fan, but Wigans will be lucky to finish ahead of Leipheimer and Christian Vandevelde. I really don't see it happening.

Wigans has had his 15 minutes of Tour fame so it will be quite entertaining to see him getting dropped and riding with the 3rd tier climbers in the mountains
and blaming it all on some type of phantom mechanical malady. Maybe we'll even get a bike toss over a cliff to accentuate his frustration, him being one of the peloton's chief drama queens.:D

Or will the just be hundreds of Wiggins the Doper threads :D

Probably. But neither will happen.

Wigans will sneak a top 10, way to hill this year and Lance will either not start or have a mental breakdown halfway through when Contador owns his a55 in the mountains

Wigans is his own worst enemy. Does he really think his little soft core porn statements are entertaining and witty? He seems to be just desparate for attention and will stop at nothing to get it.

Dude reminds me of Kramer on Seinfeld. As Elaine referred to him: A "hipster doofus".

Sorry Angliru, I don't share your penchant for being so far up BroDeal's ****.

I think you're going loooooooooong with your call of Leipheimer and CDV (a favourite of mine) beating Wiggo - a.k.a. Wigans (stop it my sides are splitting ;)).

As I've already asked, who is going to put 20 mins (I can't believe Bro' said that! :D) on Wiggins on one of those Pyrenean stages? Other than perhaps Contador and Schleck?

In all earnestnest who else? Wiggo not being Top 10? :rolleyes:

As much as their might be a rising support of TeamSKY amongst the British populace, there seems to be an equally sizable sour grapes brigade amongst Americans who just don't get Wiggo's sense of humour and feel losing him.

I really haven't been arsed to spell it out.

The fact that Wiggin's wifes family comes from Wigan is totally lost on you and is the source of much amusement to other Brits on the forum ( sorry to all the others who wanted to keep it going 'til July).

The fact that Lance is the only other serious challenger must really rankle amongst the whiny, anti-champ clique...

( Lays back down on sofa)... ;)

I told yous before, he's a chronic melon cholic, since child hood. All this pop Sh*te he's got stuck on his head, should be burnt down. Have you ever drunk melon shandy, thought not, there is a reason, it does that to you.

I don't see how my finding BroDeal's original post and some the subsequent posts funny makes me "so far up his a55"??

I also don't see in any of my posts anything saying that Wigan's will lose 20 minutes on any particular climb or cumulatively. That is ridiculous. Now it is not far-fetched to say that Wigan's will be trailing behind Leipheimer and Vandevelde since they both have proven more than once that they can climb at least with the 2 tier of elite climbers.

As I stated Wigans had his moment in the sun and it was just that. When he shows he can repeat the performance I'll be a believer especially on this year's Tour route which is bit more challenging than last year's. Plus the lineup of competition will be that much more tantilizing making it even more impressive should he show that he was no mere flash in the pan. It's simply hard for me to root for such an obnoxious fop of a man with questionable fashion sense and even more questionable sense of what is funny. Was he an outcast as child and now his time in the limelight is blinding him such that he can't see the folly of his ways?;)

Bro,

This is the best post in years. You are obviously clever, articulate and not afraid to state the truth. Keep it up and don't let the ones' with frontal bossing drag you down.

I forgot to say you are very funny.

The hardest thing to see on this thread actually is not your post but the wealthy liar in the FRS add to the right of my screen.

Must be a British thing coz I don't know what you're talking about???!!:confused: But then I'm not much of a drinker either.
