USPS/Discovery- Greatest team of all time?

They are on the verge of winning 8 Tour de France's in 9 years. Add to that wins in the DL, Gent Wevelgem,Vuelta, Giro, Tour de Georgia, Three Days of De Panne, Tour of California, Paris-Nice, Tour of Belgium and countless other stage wins etc. This has to solidify their reign as the best team ever.

Given this years circumstances, I don't think that's much to cheer about...

That's like claiming to be the best drug dealer on the corner...

Yes, USPO/Discovery is the greatest sporting fraud in pro cycling history.

During the Lance Pharmstrong era (1999 thru 2005) not one rider failed a drug test (actually Armstrong and Beltran did---but they were quickly fixed with TUEs)

Not even when the rider's wives were busted did it affect the paris podium (Ramundas Rumsas-2003 or Dario Frigo-2004)

Before Phamrstrong---we had Festina/TVM scandal and post Pharmstrong we had Roid Landis and the cow blood-based Chicken Hawk.

You were warned about this BlueTrain.

What about Levi Leipheimer? Surely he should be considered one of the greastest of all time.

OK, I get it now, yer yanking the chain. Funny I must say.

No whatever gave you that idea?

Is this a thing named troll?

Contador was in OP and then, along with a bunch of other SPANISH riders, mysteriously was cleared.

Does "history" mean "the last decade"? The "Tour of Georgia" and "Tour of California", don't include a full slate of top flight European competitors. You and Musette make more knowledgeable Discovery fans cringe.

Typical jealous CSC fan response.

ROTFL. I'm a fan of Bobby Julich. I can't help that he rides for CSC. By the way, I always get a kick of the "yur just jellus" retort. Hilarious. I'm a fan of Disco and have been rooting for Levi.

And this whole thread was just to stir the pot. Hook, Line, and sinker. You bought it. And a disco fan at that. Classic. Damn I'm good.

*pats you on the head*

How long before Disco hires Rasmussen? I'm sure Bruyneel will look him in the eye and determine he is not a doper.
