Does anyone here play the Fantasy Cycling game?

You pick 15 riders for a team and choose 9 of the riders for each stage. It is free for the first 5 stages. I thought I would try it this year . . . . at least for the first 5 stages.
Luckily, I had not picked Basso or Ullrich for my team.

Ironic that Simoni's insinuations now have substantiation. I wonder what response will come from the Giro organizers in light of these accusations.
I've heard that French newspapers today are making specific accusations about CSC and Paris-Roubaix

yeah i bet they are.:rolleyes:
i'll get this out: I think lance doped, and i think nearly all of them dope, but i still don't trust french newspapers. of course they would b1tch about Paris-Roubaix...its a french race, and it seems that the french will come up with any excuse to prove that they(french riders) lost because someone else cheated.
As if the frech riders don't cheat too? i don't think so.;)

If he is not on the list, you have to give him the benefit of the doubt. Period. Even though I don't like the guy, I wouldn't call him a cheat!
Else agree all pros dope and start giving everyone tranfusions at feeding stations. (yep, 200 beds laid out in the feed zone :) )

I would call him a cheat seeing how he was banned for a year for using drugs.

I don't remember, but was wondering about his record too - which year was this?
Basso WAS an extraterrestrial.
So was Indurain, Luxembourg 1992.
