GT's attempt to rub in his non-victory in two different threads almost costs him serious cool points.
And I care what you think about me because...... You would be who?
I quit worrying about being "cool" or what people think about me a long time ago.
If you don't like a thread..... don't read the damn thing. Our names are on top of all posts. Just skip them. That wasn't hard, was it? We seem to be enjoying it.
The riders usually sign contracts with the team, not the sponsor. I am unsure about Ullrich's contract, but since another sponsor was wanting to finance the team, and UCI's interest is to keep 1st division teams intact, it was pretty clear that was going to happen. I am curious as to whether the rider going to USPS was still under contract or if his may have ended. Yes, it is nice that this is getting resolved, and I hope the team keeps its TdF slot, although I think Ullrich will be ineffective for at least another year. And yet the whole thing could still collapse, and my "told you so" will look very foolish. What is life without risk?
I was right, however! I will try to work some interest is trying to appear cool, but I don't think its going to happen. Sorry!
