Re: Andreau leaves Rock & Republic
I wonder if his wife had anything to do with this. She has been taking crap over at DP.

Re: Andreau leaves Rock & Republic
He's going to have to fork out a lot of cash if he wants someone qualified as a DS to act as his gopher and relay man. It seems no one who knows more about cycling than Ball would want the job (which is just about everybody in the game), but if he gets someone who knows less than him, their team will be a joke. Its going to be interesting watching this team dynamic, however it develops. Someone is going to have to be in this DS bind, because Ball isn't suddenly going to become knowledgable, or passively stay out of the tactics.

I don't think it will cost much at all. There are a lot of pros who retire and still want to stay involved in the sport. Large supply, little demand = bargain basement prices.

Re: Andreau leaves Rock & Republic
Let's speculating on the next DS shall we?
What about the TMobile ex-DS... aren't they looking for work? I wouldn't be surprised top see Nathan ONeill take on the assistant DS title. |

Re: Andreau leaves Rock & Republic
Interestingly no Euro site I look every morning note this news.. This nutcase and maniac Mike Ball is no body here. I feel bad for FA.
Frankie wants own sqaudra. Go for it, Frankie, I will organize nice dinner for you and Betsy if you travel my sunny neck of wood. Betsy attacked? It was unitary scumbag. He was immediately opposed by maggiority The Jackboot even issued scuse me. Want to find FA sostitution? Look to ubbidient DS.

Re: Andreau leaves Rock & Republic
It gets better.... Ball is talking to Landis about a consultant gig
From Boulder Report: Specifically, I asked whether he was negotiating a deal with Landis, who’s currently serving a two-year suspension for artificial testosterone use. “Floyd’s a good friend and we’ve had a lot of conversations,” said Ball. “Nothing’s been solidified, but we’ve talked about this since last year. I can’t really speak to that right now, but we’ll see what happens.” Landis was included in a recent e-mail to Rock riders and staff about an upcoming training camp in Malibu. |

This could be good. WIth Hamilton, Botero, and Landis they practically have the Phonak team put back together. Get BMC spnnsorship and an ugly kit then they'll be ready to rock.
