They were damn lucky to get a start anyway after Mazzoleni, Kessler etc.
As for all the stories surrounding Johan 'the Hogg' Bruyneel and Alberto 'Puerto' Contador, you'd have to have your head fair up your clacker to cry tears for that lot.
this is about alberto, johan, and levi being on the team. there have been no sanctions, no positive tests, etc. about these guys, just "suspicions" like the ones you are perpetuating in your post. like i said in the other thread, astana would be welcomed to the tour if it were moureau as the gc leader, and they would be prasied for their reinvigorated efforts of cleaning up their team. maybe you don't like astana. fine. maybe you don't like johan. fine. just try to look at this from a different, objective perspective. there is no logic to this.
