Ronde's too busy sending his resume to Sportsbook.com. From what I hear, Horsteef had a deal with
Matel as a co-sponsor. He couldn't line up another co-sponsor (big suprise) so he went back to Matel
with the hard sell to get them to kick in the rest of the budget. Problem was the guys at Matel said
"You know what- this is a stupid idea, lets just forget the whole thing" So no title sponsor, no
co-sponsor, nothing. Want to bet that the team folds by the time UCI registration comes around? When
is that? A couple of weeks?
