Get off the drugs. That's why I said- "Once it was over I imagine
Bruyneel told them all to relax and that they'd try it all again
tomorrow as TMO probably won't do that again. They're not smart
enough." in another thread.
And you can pretty much forget about Vino or Kloden just saving it.
There IS no team leader there and EVERYONE knows it.
And no, CSC and Phonak could not blow things up on the first climb and
lose all of DSC. They are not nearly as strong as deep into the team
as TMO. No way.
Ras might have tried it but TMO went much earlier than that.
