God, that logic is infallible. The thought of LA winning another tour depresses the crap out of me.
but why.. surely the best rider over those three weeks deserves to win...
im not a great fan of cadel as a person, but the thought of him winning the tour does not depress me, if he wins, fair do's, the only thing that depresses me is someone winning and a week later having it voided for a failed drugs test...
or are you still bitter and think someone who "allegedly" failed a drug test ten years ago shouldnt be allowed to win clean.. so im guessing the idea of basso winning the giro depresses you as well...
personally i think its impossible that he can, i dont think he will be strong enough, but if he does, after four years out, coming back from retirment, what the hell will that say for the current crop of so-called contenders, cos if, and its a big if, lance won the tour this year i dont think there would be any doubt he did it clean.. if i was cadel, or schleck, or anyone else i would be practically bricking it at the idea of lance winning, cos if some old guy four years out of the game can whup my **** over three weeks in france i should be looking for another job... wouldnt surprise me if there are a couple of people running scared of lance who take that little something extra themselves...
but anyway.. irrelevant cos theres no way he win the tour... and if he does.. well its just another paragraph in the fairy tail..
(someone whos got over 99, and if he was anti every single person who had ever doped would have nobody left to support.. its what they do now matters to me)
anyway.. no doubt.. LA and JB will have something lined up for astana.. just please please please, when you do the team kit, something other than blue and white.. its getting confusing..
