If this trend continues the Vuelta will be the new top tour
while the TDF becomes just a French provincial sideshow.

dumbass,

rasmussen should've won the tour last year anyways.

will the UCI do anything ? no will the IAPT (pro tour teams union)
take a stand ? no way, they will throw their colleagues under the
bus.

why is the ASO passive agressive ? they should control the sport of
europro cycling the way the NFL controls football, but the are pussies
by nature.

when the UCI hatched the protour plan the ASO should've launched their
own league instead of dragging their feet.

cycling is full of idiots, backstabbers and freeloaders, it deserves
what it gets.

The Tour de France director Christian Prudhomme made it clear that the
decision was made not as a personal slight against Contador, but as a
reflection on the Astana team's past history. "If Contador changes
teams, then he can take part," Prudhomme said.

Hey Christian, what if they just leave the team the same and change
the NAME to "ASO Ass-Kissers", could they participate then?

M. Prudhomme, a noted film buff, was wearing this T-shirt at the press
conference:

So all Alberto has to do is break his contract with his current team and
sign with someone else, and he's in?

That's it?

So, how ready do you think Astana will be to give him a release?

There's been some dumb stuff coming from bike racing in the last hundred
or so years, but I'm going to have to paraphrase that frame-building
recluse who sometimes hangs around here:

Prudhomme is being Stupid-issimo.

ASO will have the monopoly on provincial sideshows. Next thing we'll have
bearded ladies participating.

changing the name of the team for unibet (to canyon in france) didn't
help them.

Every sport has that same handicap. It's the cost of hiring humans... but
it is tough to look like the crew of the Love Boat when you're on the
Titanic.
