Diet Rite....can't think of the other one..
1998 US NATIONAL TEAM
I will give my answer to Marscat:
Genesis/Scuba
you had the Diet Rite connection!
Marscat got 2 + 1.5 + 5 = 8.5pts
proctor & gamble too-remember your shorts!
no VB you must keep the 1.5 pt, no dropping back to assist others... marscat should have the diet rite connection, I do believe she wears their jersey and socks all the time...oops, only when the VB kits are dirty...
damn, I was trying to lead her out
yes, but now there is a tie...
panda protested not getting any points - new GC standings posted
A tie at 14.5 points? That's some serious teamwork there...
Hooray for the officials!
darn! i just cleaned my bike chain with my Proctor and Gamble shorts...
what a good lead out too!
michael says we should do a re-do of our picks for Sat's TT. I think he's starting to doubt his Commesso pick
if eveyrone agress, sure let's re-do the ITT picks...
but I hear someone is yelling in the background and I believe her vote is "NO!"
i do NOT agree!
(marscat)
re-do our picks?
i say they should re-do the Tour!
Should someone come up with a bonus question that Ippoc is eligible to answer so she can get in on the bonus points? I'll pick Mr. Man's brain...
funny kitties
at least olaf is safe knowing that commesso won't get kicked out of the tour
panda-sounds good, but what if I can't answer it? oooh the pressure
bunny-with all those commesso picks, OV is still ahead of us...
Hm...okay, this one is from me, so I can't blame Mr. Man if it is lame:
1. In 2005, what controversy surrounded the rider who finished second in the queen stage of the 1999? (5 points);
and
2. Name another racer who had a similar controversy around the same time (3 points) and the race associated with said controversy (2 points).
Oh, boy, I hope those aren't too vague or too lame...
Oh, that should be "finished second in the queen stage of the 1999 TdF" in question 1.
marscat told me part of the question on our drive up here, I said Alex Zulle losing 7 min. on the watery stretch of road in 1999...then I read this question and got confused, but I'll stick with Alex Zulle crashing and Discovery pushing the pace to maximize on his misfortune. In 2005, David Z fell during the TdF ttt and no one waited for him...
