I remember reading tha Cunego would not be participating in this year's Tour
day France, but alas I can not recall as to why this decision was made.
Would somebody please refresh my memory??

Too young and not ready to be exploited yet.

Wouldn't that be the perfect time to exploit him?
How many riders in the TdF are being exploited?

I'm sure you're kidding, but my newsreader filtered-out your emoticon. :-)

Maybe my english is somewhat lacking here. During the Giro this was
discussed a lot on the Eurosport coverage by the swedish commentators. What
they where saying was that if he was thrown into too many hard stage races
too soon he would risk cracking before he had *matured* enough to be
"exploited" properly. From what I understood this is how they had
interpreted what the Saeco team management had hinted at.Maybe USPS just plain bought him out so Lance could work on his sixth
without being embarrased?--

Saeco right now. -

interpreted what the Saeco team management had hinted at.The primary usage of the word 'exploit' is to take advantage of someone or
something, to the detriment of the person or thing being exploited. Another
definition of exploit is use or do something fully and completely. You
understand the definition of exploit, but your sentence phrasing indicated
the primary usage, rather then the other one. -

definition and that a true Capitalist would *only* acknowledge the second
definition 😉--

This must be a third definition of exploit. Sound awfully similar to what
gays do though 😉
