No mention of Team Discovery..
 

Why am I not hearing anything about them. Not even one word!

Why would you expect to hear much about them at this point in the Tour?

...or at any point except for when george crashes.

Because they haven't done anything yet.

Clearly you have been in the kitchen every time they mention the best young rider jersey, currently worn by Vladimir Gusev.

What do you believe they have done so far in this tour that warrants any legth of discussion?

discovery who? ;)

Because the great ********* has retired?..

Because we (the majority of forummembers, americans) would rather talk about our home team, CSC. Because they have Dave, Cristian, and Bo..., ah shiiit, never mind.

At this point Disco has little or no chance of doing anything. Wait for the mountains and let's see how Levi's form is.

Jebus Cristo, Barloworld is more exciting than the Disco Dorks.

+1. I like it.

Add in Agritubel as well. Up the road every day.

i especially like how in the pre-race interviews with hincapie and lipehimer, they both made references to discovery being "the strongest team in the peloton." PLEASE! astana has the best tour team, and outside that CSC is easily stronger and deeper (i have my doubts about their GC potential).

i guess they are all sipping the same juice that led them to believe hincapie could be a GC contender last year. the tour may not be won on mineral water, but it sure wont be won on those delusions either.

just like the beginning of every NFL season when they interview the lions & they talk about how they have a great chance to go to the playoffs.
