I hope the catch and pass him... not a fan of Contador Is anybody besides a handful of Spaniards a fan? And is it just me, or do LigSher have a thinly veiled contempt for Contador? They *never* say anything positive about him. |

Master 1668 Cinnaminson, NJ | Subject: RE: Stage 19 *SPOILERS* what sort of time do you think he needs to maybe even win tomorrow? I think the stage is 45K, can he win by 2min? (may even need less, they way he looks right now) |

I think the stage is 45K, can he win by 2min? (may even need less, they way he looks right now) He would have to win this stage by at least 3.5 minutes to have a chance at the overall. Not going to do it. |

Master 1404 Saratoga Springs, Utah | Subject: RE: Stage 19 *SPOILERS* Come on Cadel! Hope he can take a few seconds on the Schlecks near the end of this. |

| Master 1468 Montgomery, Tx | Subject: RE: Stage 19 *SPOILERS* Did contatodor and andy work something out? They wered talking befored they were cought, but when contador took off again it look like andy started, but then sat up and the same time it looked like cantador looked back and put his palm back. I am sure I am reading into this, but dang that was a fun stage to watch |

Champion 23360 Taser-World | Subject: RE: Stage 19 *SPOILERS* BellinghamSpence - 2011-07-22 8:53 AM I'm actually sad. This means in three days, I will have to start waiting for the Vuelta. Which I don't really follow that much. It's not televised on Versus, so I don't get to watch it.... I think Universal has the contract to air it through either 2011 or 2012. Maybe Versus will get it after that. At least, I can hope.  |

He will be lucky not to drop down further than 7th in the overall. I would think this race is between AS and Cadel now. I am cheering for Cadel cause I can not stand the Schlecks. Well that and I like Cadel. |

In the good ole days when Versus was OLN, they showed the Giro and Vuelta daily. They even showed the Tour Down Under daily. |

Expert 1145 Ann Arbor, MI | Subject: RE: Stage 19 *SPOILERS* I have no doubt about Cadel taking 5" on F. Schleck tomorrow and finishing at least in 2nd, unless he has a mechanical or something crazy happens. But I do have some doubts about whether he can take 58" on A. Schleck on tomorrow's 43k TT, after leaving so much on the climbs these past two days. At CdD, Evans finished this same TT in 6th, at 1:20 off Tony Martin's stage winning time. At Tour de Suisse, on a shorter (32k), though similarly profiled TT stage, A. Schleck finished 46th, at 2:32 back from Cancellara. Did Evans leave enough in the tank? |

Expert 1690 | Subject: RE: Stage 19 *SPOILERS* go to steephill.tv and watch it on eurosport. They have excellent commentators and sean kelly knows everything there is to know about cycling unlike P&P. The race today was awesome, I was just sad to see rolland get the win when voekler did so badly, to me that shows europecar had a TDF champion in their midst and the jersey landed on the wrong shoulders. Id be willing to be a large sum of money that rolland ends up as the GC guy for a new team next year. FDJ or AG2R if they are pro status will most likely pick him up. I am a die hard contador fan, I even believe he isnt guilty of the clenbuterol charge, it was most likely accidental ingestion from one of the many suplements that these guys take. Also who would want to be taking a weight loss pill during a GT when these guys are struggling to get calories down. Blood transfusion you say? well thats all speculation like the rest of it. I also believe of the favorites he was most likely the cleanest of them all for this tour because of the close scrutiny that he is under. |

In the interview I watched he said he thought he could move up in the standings, possibly 3rd or 4th on a real good day. So I would think that means he is going to go hard tomorrow. |

AS certainly did not take it easy the last few days either. So maybe the question should be "Does Andy Schleck have enough in the tank to hold on to the yellow jersey?" We find out tomorrow. |
