The green jersey:
In existence since 1953, it rewards the best sprinters in the Tour de France. During each stage,
points are attributed during the intermediary sprints and at the finish : the general classification
is calculated by addition of the points. -

Thanks for being so helpful. I knew about the green jersey. When did they actually start taking time
off the overall time? Not everyone has had the advantage of watching OLN for years. This is the
first year that I have had
it. You guys complain about the CBS coverage--it does suck! Here, though, last two years we got
Sunday coverage only, and it was delayed until the middle of the night so CBS could cover the
Tampa Bay Devil Rays baseball team which was in last place.I asked an honest question. Does anyone have an honest answer?

more for him to win. -
Did you guys see American Flyers? To reward the guy that goes for the breakaway, no doubt.
