Contador....Punk move today when Schleck lost his chain or OK? I say punk move. And I'll include Menchov and Sanchez in the Punk category too.

A buddy and I were talking about this earlier...
I say frick the old-school shite - if a dude's chain falls off, then make a break. Hell, it's not Contador's fault that Schleck was stomping his pedals.

Contador is a punk.

Punk move.
But... it's the last climb of the race so you do what you gotta do. Menchov and Sanchez attacked to, so its not just Contador. But it was a pretty bitch move.

Punk move I think.
Its seems like a punk move for the two time tour winner to take advantage of, however there is a lot of money on the line.
Hopefully Schleck comes back and kicks his arse.

Unless Contador has a heart attack on the course - it is over.
Alberto will extend in the TT.

Schleck's a pretty good TT'er. And I was wrong, the next two stages are both climbs. Plenty of chances to get back 8 seconds.

There's also still two mountain stages. The lead is 8 seconds. This thing isn't close to over.
stage 16 has to Cat 1 climbs and two HC climbs. Stage 17 has two Cat 1 climbs and finishes with a HC climb. That should be the deciding stage. Schleck has plenty of racing to take the yellow back.

i say punk move only because Alberto saw what happened and kept going. menchov and Sanchez only reacted after they saw Alberto keeping the hammer down.

Kids these days. No respect for the old ways.

RABBLE, RABBLE, RABBLE!!!
Contador has this thing wrapped up.
Without Frank, Andy is toast...
If Frank were still around, then I would say that he has a chance...but not without him.

Move was fine. Dropping a chain is almost always the fault of the rider. It's not like a flat where it's just bad luck
What was bullshite was Contador then lying about it after the race saying that he didn't know Schleck had a mechanical issue

It's a race. Why the hell would someone stop and wait?
