Cyclingnews are reporting that T-Mobile will sign Janez Brajkovic for next season. One wonders if he'll be as good elsewhere. Let's hope so.

Still no news on Contador. Which Spanish team will he end up at? Or will Rabobank nip in for him?

    If George and Janez are as good at T-Mobile as there were at Discovery is it a case of

    a) T-Mobile are filth
    b) They were always clean and the Disco thing was overstated.

    Discuss.

    How about c) the sport is cleaner than it was?

    So if George went over a col with a group of climbers, you would take this as a sign the sport was cleaner?

    If he was hanging on the back maybe. But seeing him driving it in the Pyrenees and dropping GC favourites, i.e. a la 2004, would worry me.

    T-Mobile is a good late career choice. Big paycheck and no results expected.

    Given Big George's record then I'm sure T-Mobile don't expect results. Arf!

    :lol::lol:

    Maybe they think a crash in the P-R is good publicity 8)
  • Going to T-Mobile for the final year of a career is a smart move.

    Can always say: "Hey, I rode for the clean team, I must have been okay."

    In Cavendish, Gerdemann and possible Brajkovic, T-Mobile will have a plethora of young (and in the case of Brajkovic hopefully clean) talent.

    People still buying the T-Mob nonsense then?

    Yes. And this thread is boring. Wild negative beliefs stated with no basis in fact.
