Contador
Dumbasses,
Until today Contador hadn't entered a Grand Tour and not won since 2005 (31st in the Tour). That was a string of 6 consecutive victories, 2007 Tour, 2008 Giro & Vuelta, 2009 Tour, 2010 Tour, 2011 Giro. F |

Contador formally announced that he will not enter the Vuelta or ride
the Giro next year. Since the Giro has become so tough I sort of understand his reasons. The Giro route and competition has become very tough in recent years that it is very difficult for a potential TDF winner to win. without burning out is chances. I still believe it is possible for a rider to win the double. Part of the problem is resisting the temptation to make senseless attacks. I would like to see AC enter some fall races. In a strange fateful way it is good that AC lost the TDF and spared cycling another disgraced TDF winner. AC's doping case should have been settled before the start of the TDF.

If cycling wants a clean image, they should work on their image, just as FIFA, FIA, MLB, NBA, and NFL do. -- Old Fritz |

There also needs to a be a expedited appeals and sentencing process. One year is much is long a time to resolve a doping case. He should DQ himself before the official determination?

The only way that would fly is if the sport took dope testing as seriously as other major sports like tennis and football. Sports that are not run by retards don't have these problems. F |
