Millar Line: Stage 1

Ryan Cousineau said:

25 David Millar (GBr) Saunier Duval

That puts George Hincapie in the doping crowd.

But don't forget: sprinters are clean, so Hushovd, McEwen, et al are
okay. And since Jimmy Caspar won the sprint, he is now a sprinter, and
thus clean by association.

Well, George got the yellow by virtue of an intermediate sprint, so I
think we'll give him an honorary on this one.

A brief refresher on the Millar Line:
In association with Brian Lafferty, we have determined that Millar is
clean, and therefore anyone who beats him in a flat stage is doping.
There is an exception for sprinters, because they are all clean.

The lead-out men, not so much,

Okay, the Millar Line is nothing if not generous to a fault. Hincapie is
on double secret probation until the mountains. If he out-climbs Millar,
he's doping.

If Millar doped and Hincapie didn't, Hincapie would still outclimb Millar.

You dare to doubt the Millar Line? In the name of Brian Lafferty and all
that is naturellement, I accuse you of doping.

Blijlevens has never tested positive, so he must have been as clean as can
be.
