Vino fails drug test, Astana out   Message List

Re: Vino fails drug test, Astana out

Rasmussen fired just as he was about to win the tour. I watched him attacked by
two Discovery riders and he managed to fight off the attacks and even win the
stage. After the race, Leipheimer said that unless Rasmussen really messed up
the time trial on Saturday, he was going to win the TdF.

Next thing we knew, Rasmussen had been fired for not being available for those
drug tests in May and June. Well, ok they knew about that BEFORE he started the
tour and still let him rip up his body keeping the yellow jersey for 9 days and
winning the stage today which was not easy.

And that's just really lucky for Disc which doesn't have a sponsor but if they
win, of course, they MIGHT get a sponsor. Contador is 2 min 38 seconds behind
Rasmussen and now as leader, 1 min and change separates him and Cadel Evans and
that's about it... the others have too much time to make up. So Contador will
win. By Default.

I'm so disgusted I'm not bothering to watch it anymore.

I think the sport is effectively dead, certainly irrelevant. I think I would cancel the Tour for the next five years, allow time for the current peloton to...
