I am the first to admit I am not a fan of Contador. In fact the only reason to watch “The” Tour is to see him lose. Problem is I dont really see anyone out there who can beat the douche. Schlecks? On paper yes but as anyone who watched Leige this year say neither one has the will to win. They both sat on Gilbert and never even tried to attack. WTF? No such problems with Contador. Did you see todays finish at the Giro? Dude wants to win races. He didn’t need to attack like that he could have just sat in right? Wrong! Did Eddy ever sit in? Hell no, he attacked when it made no sense and he won. More than anyone. You have to be willing to lose to win. You gotta put it all out there and if you blow up and don’t win well at least you tried, unlike the other 99% of the field.

Like I said I may never be a Contador fan boy but begrudgingly I do have to respect him. That creep can roll man.
