This is moronic - "despite perfect tactics"

The move on the St.Nicholas, where Gilbert dropped Andy, is probably the
key sign here. Andy is the best climber of the three, but he was dropped,
although finally catching back on. Gilbert was the strong man that day,
although I do agree with other comments that Andy and Frank should have
pressed coordinated attacks. If they had the legs.

Hat's off to all three for a terrific race.

I didn't see a single attempt to use their 2 against 1 position.
How in the **** can tempo riding be called "an attack" ?

The Schlecks just don't have the killer instinct.

Dumbass, they are professionals not sportsmen.

You are on a slippery slope there. Watch out, "it's OK to be a
sportsman" is down there in the river with the alligators.

However: fair comment.

They are still boy scouts.

Kids, kids, kids. This is Gilbert's July. He kicked their asses because
it's the Schleck's April.

Yeah, the Schleck's lack the killer instinct but it's the wrong month to
prove that.

The Schleck's will lack the killer instinct in July also. I've
given Frank's Beijing jersey to my girlfriend - I am just too
embarrassed to wear it.

Probably fits her better, too. Those Schlecks are some skinny mofos.

We shall see in July. I think the Schlecks need some serious
disappointment in the early part of the season. They need some fire
in the belly, and that only comes from bitter disappointment.
