  1. Curious why ?........... USPS wouldn't sign a guy like Danny Pate? He fits their mold of big,strong,
    "rolleur"-type of rider who can TTT well and sit at the front at 50kph for 150K. He's also got
    plenty of euro experience. He probably could have come cheap. And he's a friggin' American! Anybody
    have any ideas?

    Dumbass -

    When selecting riders, physical talent's only half the equation.

  4. I thought a couple of years ago, he said he wanted to race in the US to be near his new wife,
    girlfriend and therefore the EU scene was not attactive to him?

    Dumbass, I think it's more than half the equation. But yes, it's good to have other talents like
    knowing how to fix the team van or be able to get hot chicks to hang out with you.

  6. Jackass- What's the other half of the equation???? That's what I'm asking.Putz.
