It was obvious that when Basso had the stage win, Armstrong let him, and
vice versa when Armstrong won.

To not confuse the fans, why not try this approach. Let the better man win!
The results would have been the same, with a stage win for both. This
letting the other guy win is [censored], and I wish they would stop it.

Stage 15 was pretty clear, though, eh? Mano a Mano among the Tours
true contenders.

Azevedo's doing pretty damn good, too. I wonder whether Johan will
let him ride his own pace on the Alpe. Probably not, he'll probably
be doing marking for Lance.

Perhaps you should write a letter to the UCI demanding action on this
critically important issue.

Obvious to who? Damn, why can't you be content with just a few idiotic
statements. Why shove your foot in your mouth all day long?

It happens when they decide to not waste precious seconds maneuvering for
position and does benefit both of them.

It's the sort of thing that makes cycling fascinating and long-distance running
tedious.
