[quote="Danton"]I don't know but ASO have always wanted a clean race but if that's not possible, at least race without a scandal [quote]
i agree there. I think its less about keeping the sport clean and more about a scandaless race. oh well, at the end of the day its about keeping the $$$ rolling in.
Vino back to Astana?!

These guys were not condisered any place near as tainted as Vino when Johan Hired them (nor at any time while on the team)...
The one guy you might have made a point with is the one guy you left out... Basso.
And he was let go ahead of doping confirmation.
Not that actual evidence needs to be injected into the froth of pontification rolling round

Ah fark... 
The point still stands to the others though... None of those guys had any sort of Vino type thing to consider when they were on the Postal team... And in fact, didn't Johan come to that team with a couple guys in place (Frankie and Ham?)
Either way, I understand that after dominating cycling you should hold Brunyl to a higher standard, but not to the point of clairvoyance...

I got tired of typing, hence the [insert random doper] script. I should write a java-based mini-app of upcoming dopers and a randomized excuse generator.

LOL. I think the way it goes is that you don't get to ride the tdf under Johan if you aren't on the program.

I like the randomized excuse generator!
What might be fun is to have one of those nickname generators where you enter in your real name, your peloton name and hit enter and it generates a prison nickname, given the fact that regardless of your "youghness and manlyness as a pro bike rider, you will simply be judged differently in proson as the skinny guy with the tight butt and shaved legs...
Like "Big Tex".... ----- Big Takes
The Lion of flanders ---- The Lion of Felatio
Il Grillo ---- Lil' Girlly
The Cobra -------- snake eater
The Viking ---- Anus VerMagnified
The Roman ---- Anus Maximus
The Little Prince ----- Simply add an "ss" to the end
Alle Jet ------ Quickie
Thunder from Down Under----Quicky
Il Pirata ----- Butt Pirata
Il Falco ---- I'll fu__o
Chechu ---- chica
Tricky ---- er... no change needed
Some old timers...
Monsieur Chrono --- Monsieur Cornhole
Il Diablo ---- Il Doable
DuDu ----- yeah, no change here...
Bimbo ----- this one stays....
Then there are a few guys who simply stay badass... Like Merckx, Magnus Backs... The Lion King could go either way. I could see him keep his name and or simply be the Lion Queen Depending on his cell mate

Ok, let's see where the F;@4;kers are from:
- Registered in Switzerland
- Managed by a Belgian, with staff from Belgium, Holland, US, Ireland....
- Only seven out of 26 riders are Kazakh, the rest are Spaniards, Germans, Dutch, Austrians, Luxemburgian...
Looks more like a West European cycling mafia to me. Financed by the gullible Kazakh government.

Who's the Irish Manager? Are you confusing Sean Yates as being Irish perhaps?
