Back to Lance...
He said, repeatedly, that if he wasn't the one who would be "chosen" on Radio Shack's team, that he would work for the leader. Now, he's saying he just wants to win a stage. I'm sorry, but that's just plain selfish. He's got enough yellow jerseys. Why not go out with a little class?

Winning a stage doesn't mean you get a yellow jersey.

They have no leader for GC. Levi is not up to the task and that's been obvious for a long time. So they shifted strategy and are going for team classification and stage wins. Originally Posted by Dogmama

Yeah, but I think they want to protect Levi's Top-10 placement. Originally Posted by ny biker
