I'll someone else start the offshoot on the misspelling in the title,
which will go on longer that any serious response. This has three
offshoots in my opinion. The first is that Contador is now the red
headed child. He better race his butt into a position that he can't be
tossed to the dogs or that's what will happen. There is Astana top to
bottom and then there is Contador.

The second is that it will happen. Contador is probably wishing he
didn't find a way to break the contract during the 'no money' days.
With Lance making noises that he will be back next year, Contador will
be headed to the door.

The final point is that if Vino comes back, Lance will leave him with
a meaningless framework of a team and the real Astana sans Contador
will be elsewhere. And Contador will appreciate LA in the end for
snapping his contract along with everyone else's as they all head for
the door.

So on the rest day, my guess is:

1. Lance's lawyers
2. Vinokourov's lawyers

Not that it will make any difference. Vino will lose every element of
what everyone else seems to feel is the strongest Tour team and feel
he is ahead of the game. OTOH, 'Vinokourov' and 'team' are difficult
to put in a sentence that implies agreement.

After Contador wins in Paris with Armstrong's help,
they reform with Alonzo. Contador, JB, Armstrong.

Succinctly said.

I can imagine Armstrong and Alonso starting a team, that is, Alonso
driving in NASCAR with Livestrong sponsorship.

Astana breaking up and the F1 teams revolt; the perfect storm.
