Astana should have picked 7 today
There probably won't be a shortage of chatter about Astana's announcement today of their selections so far for the big race next month. Today they announced 6 of the 9 who will go: Armstrong, Contador, Klöden, Leipheimer, Popovych, Zubeldia. (in alphabetic order)
Who's the leader? You decide. I really don't care.
What I do care about is who gets chosen from among the best of the rest: Brajkovic, Horner, Noval, Muravyev, Paulinho, Rast, and Vaitkus.
If they'd give me a say I'd be all over the Horner choice. I don't know how it is he's not among the 7 already selected. Cycling in this country needs Chris Horner in the Tour de France this year.
Put Horner in
you know it. Boonen might get in becasue Quick Step might sue? WHO CARES? BFD I say. Horner is what every american wants to see giving interviews next month. Who else is gonna do it? Levi? LA? or heres a laugh Contador? give me a break!
