See ya
Dear VN,
It's sad to hear the disbanding of Team Discovery. They made the right decision to leave on top before they get busted.

But you have to admit that with postings like that the team made the
correct decision to get the hell away from those who have nothing in
their lives but hatred for anything and anyone around them.

I admit if the poster is correct, the team made the correct decision.

Consider this - is he inferring that Cadel is doping?

I didn't see that. He's allowing for the fact that exceptional individuals can do exceptional things. His objection is when entire teams, without barely an exception, due exceptional things.

Explain what the exceptional things are. All you have to do is watch the
long coverage from the Tour de France starting in 1999 to see that Lance and
Johann bought the guys who were setting the pace in the mountains. They
already have Eky and a couple more guys that were great on the flats. And
you could also see when Livingston and Hamilton were taking turns day to day
pulling Lance up the climbs.

These claims are so blatantly stupid that it's difficult to take them
seriously - unless you're an RBR moron.
