I just don't buy that Armstrong could just order the team bus to leave. I don't care how famous he is or whether he still thought he was the team leader or whatever, that's not someone on any sports teams call to make. Every go on a trip for high school sports where one of your starters ordered the bus to leave for the game? No, because that's what coaches, managers, and all those people who are paid to organize the team are for. While I think that both Cotnador and Armstrong have handled this whole thing poorly, it just doesn't make sense. I am not saying that he wouldn't do it (I have no idea whether he would try to or not), but I find it a little hard to believe that the entire team and staff would listen to Armstrong like puppies and intentionally leave the man leading the tour.
